Yes great Posie Parker is on the agenda.
Chris Hipkins seems to be making a habit of mis representing and scape goating women. First Charlotte Bellis, then the two women from Northland who were said to be sex workers in the pandemic.
Now Kelly Jean Kay. Blaming her for creating division, when the division already exists and is largely driven by one side shutting the other down.
The lefts new tactic seems to be no debate, vilify and smear your opponants (especially if you can associate them with Nazis) and then cancel them.
You are wrong about Posie Martyn.
Tras activists are authoritarian
Simon Wilson you are talking bull shit about Kellie-Jae
Most of the women in SUFW are lesbian Simon
Mathew H is right about the influence of extreme ideology in Govt Depts such as HRC, OT and children’s commission. MH I would encourage you to look at gender ideology in the public service
Simon Wilson saying Posie Parker is being provocative having her event in Albert Park near the universtiy.
1. Arent universities the places where ideas get contested?
2. The event is on a Saturday. Last I heard there are no lectures on Saturday.
3. Well just ridiculous.
Back in the 1970s at Vic Uni we never cancelled people…..we learnt the ability to argue well and debate.
I see Mathew Hooten still has issues. Got to be a bloody pain to live with aside from whether or not you think he’s right or wrong.
I’m warming to Simon Wilson again – effectively, during our teen age years, we grew up together and he was such as privileged woose. Intelligent and a bloody good journalist. As he climbed the ranks, he once pulled the old “doncha know who I am” shit.
Why the fuck does he persevere with Granny Herald I often ask myself. He’d be far better off at RNZ.
No surprises to learn he’s a cyclist.
Damien is Damien, and like Hooten, a contrarian whose mandate is to just disagree for the sake of it.
