Some of the recent climate change articles are getting rather nutty. They are talking about BBQ and gas cooking as if it was a bad thing, and in an article about housing, one author claimed that climate change would alter the housing market, by destroying houses in floods. They cannot go five minutes without injecting their climate change theory into everything.
If moderators are allowed to delete this video and its interviews, that makes them as bad as Reddit and the Christchurch Press. I suppose it’s inappropriate for Adam Nuttal and Omar Nabi to question whether Tarrant was given special treatment from the police, to expedite his firearms license, because this suggests that the government is involved in a conspiracy. That’s too bad. If a conspiracy is happening in the government then we should be talking about it, not helping them to cover it up.
This is a New Zealand instance and the video that I shared is related to issues of public interest that are highly important for New Zealanders.
My website stats are not that great even after all my effort. I’m glad I gave it a go and set an example, because some people supported me. One guy shouted out to me “bro you’re right, landlords ARE parasites”. So, most people don’t say it out loud, but there are people who agree with me. I was between the university and Ilam New World writing with my chalk, and a group of students walked past. One girl just said “FACTS”. They got the message :)
Most New Zealanders are neither here nor there, they just wander aimlessly through life with a passive attitude like NPCs in a computer game. I’m not trying to win over those who are entirely passive “go with the flow, yeah nah bro” kinds of fools. If a few good people saw my chalk and laughed, then it was worth it. I don’t care about the unwashed masses who are willing to accept any amount of abuse from landlords or the government. The type of person who rents, but is indifferent to my cause, I ignore them. These people will be the first to line up at the edge of a trench and take a bullet to the back of the head, willingly, if there was an authoritarian government. I’m the person who has to be assassinated or black-bagged first thing because I’m the person who agitates the second tier.
Put it like this:
It fails to upload as a comment and I’m not going to resize every single file (assuming that’s the issue). Sorry if you’re on mobile and don’t have a real computer.
I’d agree to teach programming and maths for the minimum wage if they’d let me, but there’s probably some BS requirement like needing a degree or having to pass a police check. The only thing I’ve done wrong is have the wrong thoughts about the government, that’s not even a criminal record. They only want brain-dead degree wielders to teach. If you have any anti-government views and don’t have a degree, might as well stay on the benefit. They don’t like people who engage in wrong-think, even if it’s in their own time. The failed education system is by design, and only a fool would think that Luxon and/or more funding will fix it. The education system is rotten to the core. It needs a complete re-work.
Yeah maybe VB isn’t so bad, it was the lack of inspiration from teachers and lack of role models and advice that ruined it for me.
You couldn’t make me go there just for the money. No way am I going to study 3 years just to become a teacher, when I can teach in a world class city like Moscow with only a minor qualification that takes 1 month to get.
Read the Fight Club book if you haven’t.
That last part is the real deal here. Somewhere I have an old screen-shot from Trade Me Forum where a guy said he quit teaching because they basically thought he was a pedo or something like that. As a male, you can’t dare be too friendly or jokey with any student, male or female, or you’ll have to go through some sexual predator prevention programme or something. It will only get worse, and eventually they will roll out this “woke” training nonsense into every profession. Women control all the cosy office jobs and it’s always women in HR who push the anti-male crap.
I just looked for work on Seek and Trade Me and there’s maybe 2 jobs suitable for me, assuming the hours are reasonable. I’d rather die in a ditch in Ukraine than live in a backwater country like NZ. Nobody should pretend we are first world. Look at the poverty here, and the downtrodden fools who work in supermarkets, hardware stores and distribution centres. Being a wigger, acting tough and boasting about made up stories makes you top dog in some industries. NZ is a backwater country and it will never develop into anything that resembles a decent country. In 10 years from now I’ll still be complaining about crappy over-priced rental bedrooms, and jobs that chew through staff every month.
I dropped out on my 16th birthday and I never completed level 1 NCEA. I asked to do a programming class and showed them a program I had written, but all they could offer me was Microsoft Visual Basic. Which, from my understanding, is stuff like putting a button on the screen, clicking it, and making it say “button clicked” (that was year 12’s programme for 16-17 year olds, but it’s probably more suited to a 10 year old’s level). I wanted to learn pre-uni stuff like ‘c’ and c++ but they didn’t teach that. I don’t think they even taught Python.
The male teacher who I talked to on this matter was really boring and uninspiring. I didn’t see how any of my classes would help me with my plans. The principal and secretary of the school kept on dragging me and my divorced parents into meetings because I was bogging down the school’s stats. They really are just a bunch of useless paper pushers.
I’d like to volunteer to help primary school children or speak in high school assemblies, but it’s impossible to do this, because the government-owned schools don’t give a crap about what’s good for people. Once I tried to sign up for Big Brothers Big Sisters, but the reference checks were impossible for me to pass. I think they wanted 3 people who had known me for 5+ years and it couldn’t be my best mate or family lol. Nobody has really known me closely for 5+ years because I’ve never held a full time job for 12 months. Like the wojak/doomer meme I’m mostly invisible in this society.
The government won’t fix this. What radical change to education could they possibly make? They can tweak a bit of administration, but the rotten core of the education system will remain.
You may as well write to ministers and officials, and tell them how poorly they perform, and that their actions have corrupted the country and ruined the lives of countless people.
What about Facebook? That’s full of crap too.
Don’t forget to heckle them and send some hate mail to your local council. I’m doing my part, I hope you’re doing yours ;-)
When I was in Timaru a couple of years ago I actually drove down Pages Road. The Timaru Council assures me that they are building new homes, but I guess I’ll never afford to even rent one of the bedrooms of these expensive houses.
Did anyone here run the Kiwi Kids Marathon? I didn’t but my neighbours in the 90s did.
I’m fine with Sanitarium being a charity. Academics and Redditors just hate anything to do with Christianity and want to persecute Christians at every opportunity. Back to the original topic though, Sanitarium made a mistake here. I’ve thought about buying cereals from The Warehouse but the range is extremely limited, Sanitarium should definitely keep selling WeetBix to The Warehouse, I’m sure many families benefit from it.
What a psycho lmao
When I was a gullible teenager I would have sided with the WWF, but since I’m an adult now, I realise it’s a lobby group with an agenda, and they are just fear-mongering.
