She's already engaged, isn't she?
The Wellington protesters have given us all every reason to mock them because their protest appears selfish and incoherent. The Russian protesters appear in sharp contrast. And it is indeed sad, but MS is doing us a service by pointing out the irony.
These are questions you really ought to answer for yourself. But be careful of projection.. the OP didn't suggest these things at all.
What didn't you get? It is perfectly clear.
Excellent article MS, thank you. 100% agree with your concluding remarks.
They are not a statistical blip! - they represent a disadvantaged and deprived part of the NZ community as a whole - a place where private, public, and political investment lags well behind the rest of the country. What I find curious is the focus on ...
What patronising nonsense ad. Do you think that Northland Maori should all think the same and all be held accountable for each other's behaviour? Are you responsible for the behaviour of the members of your family, or your kind? Te Kahu o Taonui are ...
Has National expressed support for the traffic light system then? As far as I was aware, we've only heard that Judith finds it confusing and too hard to understand.
What? The Government projects a set of clear policy guidelines with their best, but sometimes flawed efforts to reduce the harm from this dangerous virus under very challenging circumstances. The opposition, in contrast, projects confusion and befuddlement...
Thanks heaps for the high price you've paid, Mr Aucklander. It doesn't excuse you though from respecting the people and environment of Northland. Hopefully a rest on the beach might help you relax the victim attitude and you might begin to notice the heat ...
The banner says it all - check the fine print.
Thanks Weka… thoughtful article. I agree that a Maori kaitiaktanga perspective is progressive and that it would be good for Aotearoa to unreservedly adopt it. In fact, we ought to embrace this within the more universal permaculture philosophy to land use, ...
Carbon gets released when the trees cut down? Dont think so. It entirely depends on the next steps for the cut trees (and the land they are grown on)… do they rot back into the soil, are they burnt, used for building materials, or making furniture? Unless ...
Oh what a load of twaddle. There is everything to be gained from being small and local, even if it means we do not get all the supplies we are used to. We simply adapt and scale down, and reduce our carbon footprint accordingly. Grow some spuds Ad.
Having read through this discussion Gosman, I think it is you that is applying a narrow ideology and you appear to have little idea of what to do - other than relying on the 'do nothing' well outmoded laisse-faire economic theory to miraculously do ...
NZers including yourself Gosman, through education, might begin to appreciate different historical experiences - developing understanding and appreciation of the experience of tangata whenua for example. Describing the land division and the related ...
The fundamental problem for NZ economy remains the same today - the colonialist's mechanistic worldview that land is a thing apart from nature - a tradeable commodity that can be owned and exploited. An unhelpful idea imposed by the newcomers upon tangata ...
From Scott's book preview (warning: not to be read while weaving baskets, & etc). ... in the most equal time in human history, the 'progressive' lies historically disenfranchised groups being held down in 2019 are wearing thin. ... chipping away!
Looks very interesting - thanks for the link.
Followed your link, couldn't find anything on balances; all whittling, basketweaving, and making lots of money on twitter.
Thanks incognito, I really appreciate your thoughtful OP. It synchronises with what was on my mind this morning. I am often tempted to reply in these ‘anger release’ kind of ways... I am learning to breathe and in the end forgive. Finding peace and ...
The massive scale desertification of land across the globe due to inappropriate land use practice is a critical problem. It is being caused by a failure to understand the role of rich microbial soil, not only for efficiently providing healthy food, but ...
It matters bighorn because, if we are to successfully address today's issues that you are understandably concerned about, then recalling with some modicum of accuracy the successful people campaigns of the past in Aotearoa serves to inform us of how to ...
Everything is connected March Hare, take a step back before the next cuppa tea. But I'm on your side - its a mad world indeed.
... and this is how it should be remembered?!
Indeed this is the shit that really matters!
I appreciate Mickey's well articulated points, but you have offered nothing to help me comprehend your disconnection. Tell us why this doesn't matter to you and how being upset about the commercial appropriation of a significant part of our Aotearoa ...
Apologies, I didn''t intend to be insensitive to your boy's trauma. This is a thread about Te Tiriti however. Peace and good wishes to you and your son.
You do know that the Dark Side of the Moon isn't actually darker than the 'white side'? - to the ignorant, what cant be seen or not understood always seems dark and dangerous.
No - you need to brush up on Te Tiriti o Waitangi, then you wouldn't have to ask such an irrelevant question (make such a stupid comment) in the context of this kaupapa - arohanui ki tou tama.
This is exactly right WeTheBleeple - thank you for this. Technology is what got us jnto this mess in the first place - we cannot wait for new innovations - we simply go back to nature herself, restore our soil, and she will heal herself. To do this we (...
