Can we please talk about why National think mutant Hell Gollum is going to rob our houses?
One of the more glorious things to have happened recently politically was finding National’s discarded AI specs for their recent political attack adverts.
While debate has swirled over the ethical use of AI whose algorithms play poorly for everyone who isn’t white, the latest generation of Muldoon’s ‘Dancing Cossacks’ are propelled by disinformation and misinformation that can trick people into believing a fallacy.
Beyond the existential threat to our political system and perception of reality however was a delightful National Party creation that looked like a mutant Hell Gollum trying to rob your house…
…why do National Party coms staff seem to believe in an orcish hellscape nightmare?
The first one (obviously set in Auckland) clearly has some type of trans-dimensional warp capacity as the demon literally twists the space time continuum as it manifests in this plane of existence where as the second one only seems to have the power to pass through solid matter in this multiverse.
What was the thinking behind this horror?
How to scare the bejesus out of Netball Mums?
Vote National or trans-dimensional demons will metamorphosis on your door step thanks to Labour?
Don’t let the Greens near power or else alien angels of darkness will rupture the fabric of space time and turn up on your porch?
Was this being written for Luxon’s church members?
Isn’t that very niche marketing?
We need to keep reminding ourselves this is how National see NZ to fully appreciate the nonsense of their solutions.

This is why Mr tough on crime Luxon is refusing to commit to police numbers. I mean ‘if there’s something strange in your neighbourhood who you gonna call….Ghostbusters’
Hell yes – they’d be awesome.
Yes we can or least should talk about it:

It’s because crime is worse, more brazen and people are genuinely concerned.
Luxon might have better luck leading Gloriavale. He’d have to change his name of course. Perhaps to Christian Luther. His massaging might make more sense to that crowd. As it is, it’s all good for the lefties when National misreads the room.
I guess 7 Houses Luxon and his gaggle of gargoyles have to resort to new avenues of scare tactics in this new age, as pulling the ol’ Commie threat just isn’t going to cut it these days. And you can’t go upsetting the boss.
Emperor Xi will be on the phone to NAT/CPP’s head office quick smart.
No seriously, I was looking at the imagery and thinking that it looks kind of familiar. Like similar to propagandists scare mongering artistry seen before. The dark, shadowy, menacing characters – all doom and gloom. The treat to your family, community and social norms. Then finally…

People fed on tv infotainment will believe anything – their minds are malleable. Of course I would say in a disapproving voice – ‘Confiscate their tvs. Destroy destroy destroy’; I am the controller of Daleks 2023. They will seek and destroy all the purveyors of fright, shock, horror and fibs, except those that are conveyed in public meetings by people such as comedians.
It seems that performers demonstrating the ridiculousness of reality for entertainment have to watch they themselves keep in touch with their reality!
Why was Flight of the Conchords Cancelled?
Speaking to The Guardian, the duo said that working on the show’s second season was so intense and exhausting they almost collapsed from anxiety. In fact, they made sure that their agents didn’t tell them how much money they would have made from a third season, which helped them step away from it.19/06/2018

As Kenny Rogers sang –
You got to know when to hold ’em,
Know when to fold ’em,
Know when to walk away,
And know when to run.
You never count your money
When you’re sittin’ at the table.
There’ll be time enough for countin’
When the dealing’s done.

I see National are now using *actual* footage of violent crime in their ads. Let’s be honest – they’re not short of material!
I don’t know why they didn’t do this in the first place.
