Since 2008, Central Banks, in a desperate move to gloss over the obscene greed and malfeasance of Corporate Banks, printed $25Trillion which kicked the can of reckoning down the road for a decade.
Well, we’ve run out of road and US Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell is being very clear that shit is about to hit the fan.
An economic depression generated by geopolitical friction beyond our control is going to swamp us with enormous social damage and political carnage.
The Left must be ready for this.
Unfortunately our focus is on alienating woke dogma virtue signals like hate speech, cancelling Hairy Maclary for lack of gender representation, or painting out the Lion King in Te Reo as the greatest cultural achievement since Shakespeare.
We need less alienating pronoun policing on the Left and more focus on universal services that provide material well being to people who are hurting right now and will be suffering in 6 months.
We need to remove the yoke of taxation from the 90% and reset it to the 10% richest.
The minefield of social justice and its never ending pure temple deplatforming of everything that triggers it will only drive people further from the Left in an intense economic downturn because you can’t eat virtue signalling aesthetics.
If you think the worst inflation in 30 years is bad now, wait until the impact of the Ukrainian war and broken supply chains in China hit.
We need to be kinder to individuals and crueller to corporations.

Wait, wait, wait “Our Glorious Leader” is going to David Jones, meeting the Victorian and NSW Premiers and otherwise opening some meetings.
Fiddling while Rome burns springs to mind……
It’s OK because Newshub is running a story about her dress.
We are truly blessed to have such a psycophantic media.
Zack Brando. For heaven’s sake make sure that Joanna Kidman doesn’t hear about the dress ( whose dress, anyway? ) or it could trigger a dressing down and global offending and apologies to injured parties across the warming seas unaware what culturally clumsy oafs we are down here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Ms Let them eat cake was too important to visit Zelensky? Who does she think she is?
Veruca Salt didn’t want go to Ukraine. She much prefers shopping in Melbourne
Good thinking although since when do people always behave in a rational manner?
I can provide evidence that this world is coming to an end & the rescue plan is literally from out of this world but the majority will reject it because it challenges their current opinions.
post links plz!
A quick read would be Mt chapter 24 then Rev 11:18. There are end times examples throughout the scripture but it is a big change for most people to accept that this Earth has a finite future in its present state because many have rejected the idea of a loving creator God while many religions teach a corrupted version of god after their own selfish interests.
How do critics of Hairy Maclary know what gender the dogs are .I’ve yet to see any identifying sexual paraphernalia,and anyway, dogs can use any damn pronouns they want, and who is anyone to say Hercules Morse doesn’t identify as a bitch?When did literature become a device to enforce totalitarian conformity?
Haven’t you read the latest book, ‘Hairy McClairy’s Gender-Affirming Surgery’?
“With a snip to his b*lls and four splits to his c**k, Hairy McMary slid off to the shops”
I didn’t really understand what they were trying to rhyme with ‘dilation’ and ‘inversion’ though, some of those words seemed strictly 5+ for today’s students.
LOL
God, wait till they start on Winnie the Pooh, Wind in the Willows and Three men in a Boat!
A new and inproved 3 Men in a boat, that’s a great visual!!
Three thumbs UP Francesca. Literature is next you know, it will be called the Public Interest Literature Fund to ensure a steady supply of identarian propaganda is imbibed from cradle to grave!!
Book burning is just around the corner 🙂
Fantail. Book burning is already here. The National Library led the way ridding itself of books not published in New Zealand. Hang into your books. I already have plans in motion to make sure that mine are saved. Major UK libraries are now being decolonised, so expect to see it happening more now that Mao’s little soldiers are calling the shots.
Hairy McClary not diverse enough? I think the academic calling this outrage out should be challenged. Did she ask the dog what gender he identified as? What they/them pro nouns are?
Anker Of course the so-called academic should be challenged, even if only for contaminating the innocence of childhood with the pre-occupations of the gender obsessives forcing themselves into the political arena seemingly oblivious of the bread and butter issues impacting on the day to day lives of mainstream families.
The shocking thing is that it is Dept of Education that Carmel Sepuloni wants to replace the Children’s Commissioner who has always been a named, highly qualified professional person concerned with
the well-being of all children, and certainly not distracted by idiosyncratic and probably unimportant pigeonholes like this sort of irrelevant waffle.
A lot of Enid Blyton’s work has been crucified in the UK, but she got many of us reading and learning the pleasure of books, and anything which sets kids on the path to literacy and enjoying doing so, should be sacrosanct. So what if Noddy and Big Ears were gay ?
I think the nut job calling out the author just wanted their 5 minutes of fame.
Meanwhile another successful author gets put under the microscope to be pulled apart.
I pity the poor kids too, just another thing to add to their mental health situation.
I admire Dodd’s restraint. Mind you she’s the writer of kid’s books so responded in a calm way. “Isn’t it crazy, people are just too politically correct,” Dodd said.
Instead of “Fuck off, tell the idiot to get a life. Tell him to get a life rewriting the bible so that more women get to be in leadership roles and spouting truths and messages for humanity.”
So the story is shit waiting for someone to turn it into a shitstorm. I read Bomber’s piece, expected to see some sensible perspective, and the very first comment is that Ardern shouldn’t be overseas, she shouldn’t be meeting people, she should be doing serious stuff at home. Like what?
Wielding a hammer on one of the ultra busy sites all over the country, helping build a house? Oh, can’t do that, the numpties tell us there’s nothing happening with houses.
Maybe she could stay at home handing out baby’s dummies to the perpetually childish negative and myopic, suitably superglued, not just on the sucking end but the holding end too. No hear from them, no read from them.
And to keep them amused have helpers read Lynley Dodd stories to them.
Peter the comment on the PMs whereabouts came from an old dog outside the Dairy….not Hercules Morse as big as a horse but another known as Frank the Tank resembles a plank
it obvious that all the right wing nuts who have taken time out of their day to opine on this issue, hadn’t read the article, and somehow thought that this was a government statement. which makes this tragic farce pearl clutching on the state of the woke taliban taking over NZ all the more ridiculous. stupid is as stupid does i guess.
As myself and others often say Bomber. Refound MANA and see what happens. Lenin’s greatest principle was ‘suck it and see’.
Agree top 2% wealthest should pay the most tax. Most of them are probably happy to. They just don’t know how it seems. Instead they focus on philanthropy.
Not a fan of Hairy Maclary books for my kids, as I prefer cats. And cats normally play the bad characters in those books.
The academic is in Perth. Nothing to do with NZ
Aaah but it makes for amusing reading!
Agree. And nothing to do with left woke whatever that is. Just an academic doing what academics do..musing and looking for funds or fame.
“We need to remove the yoke of taxation from the 90% and reset it to the 10% richest.”
Resulting in many of those 10% taking themselves and their money somewhere else.
I saw the consequences of the economy crushing taxes of Labour governments in the UK when I was young. All the working capital went overseas so by the time I’d been laid off twice, I left too.
The Left didn’t create this garbage. This is all just another ruling class tool devised to draw our attention away from their misdeeds….
an academic? I loath stereotypes but lets not have the tail wag the dog here. next thing you’ll know, dogs don’t chase cats and women have penis’ – oops – did I just get trans banned? Am I a TERF or even worse, a conservative meme.
