The opportunity to view what happened to Kim from a more objective perspective via a documentary made by someone with the reputation of Annie Goldson is my final hope that NZers will wake up and understand the enormity of what is happening to Dotcom is actually a war against the mass surveillance state that we are all now threatened by.
Your lives matter and the cruelty you are all forced to live under by WINZ is a horror that those same smug vicious male arsehole rich prick broadcasters will never understand.
Stealing out of need is different from stealing out of greed. I won’t ever damn a mother or father for doing that. That’s an indictment on the system, not on Metiria or the tens of thousands forced to do the same.
Metiria admitting she was forced to break the law to feed her child doesn’t make her a hate figure, it makes her a leader who has experienced the cruelty of spiteful social policy firsthand.
None of these male broadcasters have had to deal with the horror and cruelty of WINZ. None of them have had to crawl on their belly in a demeaning manner to just pay the bills. They have no idea of the life Metiria had to live, yet in they go with all the judgmental beneficiary bashing neoliberal cultural hate that has become the corner stone of most mainstream media.
The real madness, there wouldn’t be any synthetic cannabis issues if we legalised actual cannabis.
The truth is that while it’s poor brown people dying from synthetic cannabis sweet bugger all will be done. The second white middle class kids start dying, watch how quickly society will move.
I just don’t think this story below is getting enough attention and I hope the release of the new documentary by Annie Goldson reignites public attention…
Being on the State Broadcaster carries obligations to the taxpayers who have built that asset up, which means his salary should be transparent.
Kiwi’s don’t want the jobs, because as Helen Kelly pointed out, they are awful hideous jobs which are paid a pittance. Complaining as the farming industry does about NZers not wanting to be serfs in a rural feudal state doesn’t justify importing desperate and impoverished workers from other countries.
NZ First’s extraordinary claim that deciding the fate of the Maori electorates with a binding referendum is not only dog whistle politics at its worst, it’s also incredibly unfair and utterly unjust.
