Ummmm.
Look.
I don’t want to keep bringing up Shaneel Lal because some of the shit said about Lal is just ugly beyond belief and has a toxicity to it that damages the person saying it as well as the person they are aiming it at.
Fuck feeding that.
H-O-W-E-V-E-R
When Lal goes out of their way in their NZ Herald weekly column to make claims that are gasp inducing and eye rolling at the same time, you kinda need to counter it.
In their latest column, which was ostensibly an attack on conservative standards, they frame all criticism of themselves winning Young New Zealander of the Year as politically motivated and evil…
Since winning Young New Zealander of the Year a month ago, Terfs, in other words, self-proclaimed women’s rights activists with the support of right-wingers, have reposted on social media shirtless selfies which I took when I was 18 and held that as an example of why I am not a good role model for young people.
….well, hold on a wee second there.
Now, I’m sure there are some fuckwits out there circulating these images and making the allegation that Shaneel isn’t a good role model for young people.
I’m sure there are, and they are wrong.
Shaneel is a questionable choice for Young NZer of the Year because of the pretty extreme abuse they’ve meted out on their own social media feed…
…so it’s that bewildering level of open abuse PLUS Shaneel leading an angry mob to literally, metaphorically, metaphysically and figuratively chase a women from the town square and call that ‘Pure Trans Joy’!
THAT’S why the vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast majority of Kiwis were critical and questioning of Shaneel, and that is totally legitimate.
For those holding up Lal’s topless photos and dancing videos as some type of evidence of Lal’s worthiness for winning, you don’t understand the criteria or how stupid you sound.
I think Lal may be the only political columnist in NZ who will actually drive voters away from their preferred political preferences.
Shaneel is the Anti-King Midas of political columnists.
Can anyone ask them to maybe hold off until after the election from writing again? Because the more they write, the less chance the Left has of winning the election.

What a charming man Mr Lal is (not).
Why did the prize of young New Zealander not go to someone doing something useful, rather than an extremist on the fringe
Lower wages. More unstable workforce. Diversity was meant to assure in a new wave of prosperity. Now we are eying down a Chinese century.
I no longer use Lal’s preferred they/them pronouns since he doesn’t bother observing other people’s preferred pronouns. For example, I saw Lal was referring to transwoman Rachel McGonigal as ‘he’ on Twitter.
Now there referred to as was/were
Kiwibank gives the middle finger salute to all hardworking, diligent young New Zealanders when they chose that narcissistic Lal as Kiwibank young nz’er of the year.
Scary the ease of credibility to the manipulative.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has admitted he made “a huge mistake” in spending time with sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Mr Gates told CNN he had “several dinners” about a philanthropy project that did not emerge, and should not have given him “credibility”.

Oh, don’t worry. Like Kim Dot Com Sahneel Lal will fade away. In 5, 10 or 20 years who will remember who they were.
I dont see the harm in it. Given what Lal is up againt. Far right relgious fundamentalists who want to drive LGBT’s out of public life.
Millay: “Far right relgious fundamentalists who want to drive LGBT’s out of public life.”
I’ve seen nothing of this. Could you please adduce some evidence for it? A link or two, perhaps.
