Critical analysis breaking down New Zealand news coverage, media framing, and political narratives behind the headlines.
For the first time since the danger of this pandemic started to become glaringly apparent, I am feeling hopeful that this Government have urgently reset the safety parameters of this virus and are finally appreciating the enormity of what we are facing.
I had a list of things to do this week.
On top of that list was write a 1 year reflection blog on the March 15th white supremacy terror atrocity in Christchurch.
I put it off.
All week.
The time for pretending that criticism of the pandemic is racist and that this won’t be a big deal as our woke activists on Twitter have been screaming since January is over.
The Black Swan is here you fools.
Just because you are on the opposite side of the road, doesn’t mean your free speech has been censored, that is a fallacious argument by Seymour.
WHO have now declared an official pandemic, that means the expectation is that this virus will get out into our communities and we are looking at mass sickness and a huge leap in deaths.
Befuddled Biden is slow marching towards an electoral college homicide. Never before has a political suicide note been so predictable.
The sooner we start planning for this to be a worst case scenario event, the sooner we can prepare for that worst case scenario.
The moment that the Left wing have been dreading is now upon us. Since the intellectual capitulation by the Lange Government to the neoliberal revolution, the Left have been philosophically stillborn when it came to a counter to free market globalisation. On the left we have ignored class and the economic hegemony for Identity Politics fads.
Can we acknowledge this is dangerous yet or will I get cancelled for suggesting this isn’t a bloody identity politics issue but a public health threat and economic crisis?
National out of power are showing us that free of the responsibilities of Government, they still can’t get their fucking act together!
