Lessons NZ Political Left have to learn from MAGA landslide
The enormity of Trump’s extreme win demands the Political Left in New Zealand sit the fuck up and learn the appalling lessons.
Winning the majority doesn’t mean you are right, it just means you have all the power.
Mark my words, Trump is an orange fascist who has used the Undermensch to empower the Ubermensch.
Culture Wars – For the love of fuck, the NZ middle class left have got to stop culture wars we can’t win by handing over political ammunition to our enemies. Last month Young Labour wanted to strangle Candace Owens free speech FFS as if they haven’t learned anything!
Social Media Hate Algorithms – They have done more to teach the frightened and ill educated to hate one another than any other force since Joseph Goebbels.
Woke Middle Class Identity Politics – Intersectionist gender critical and race critical woke dogma doesn’t have the same sizzle it did in 2016. Apparently calling every white person irredeemably racist, all men rapists and anyone supporting Free Speech a Nazi isn’t the vote winner the middle class woke thought it was.
Working Classes – Because America is a venal cut throat rat race with no safety nets, US Capitalism attempts to offset the cost of living to keep the peasants from rioting with cheap petrol and cheap manufactured food. Listening to Americans whine about the cost of petrol in their country when petrol prices are twice that in NZ is hilarious, but because so many Americans live in poverty, petrol prices and cheap heavily manufactured food is the difference between getting through the month and not. Many voted for Trump despite Trump being a Union busting prick, Unions are then only way working people have any leverage to upgrade their standard of living and a Trump administration will ensure that Unions gain not one inch during his Presidency. Trump will give the working poor the crumbs of tax free tips, but he will never give them the dignity to sit at the table while eating those crumbs.
Americans living in poverty and the Homeless – There are now 650 000 homeless Americans (110 000 of them are children) and 40% of the entire country are 1 financial crisis away from joining the homeless. The grinding poverty of America’s ruthless free market capitalism has become a nightmare for many and because Democrats have done sweet fuck all in addressing their pain in favour of middle class woke identity politics pandering, these Americans have been left to fend for themselves and see a champion in Trump which is desperately hollow because he will betray every single one of them.
Radioactive Trans Debate – How spastic did the radioactive Trans debate become?Trump consistently claimed Democrats would allow illegal aliens sex changes in prison, what’s the truth? Yes the American Prison system allows those transitioning to access the medicines they require because that’s a health issue, but how many have actually accessed sex change operations? Only 2 prisoners! 2 FUCKING PRISONERS! When challenged on this, Kamala Harris said “I will follow the law”, rather than explaining that there are only 2 examples of this and both were domestic prisoners, not ‘illegals’. She didn’t point this out because the Dems were terrified of insulting the woke by mentioning the Trans debate in any way that didn’t worship them. The Trans debate – thanks to the toxicity the Woke spent 8 years injecting into this issue, was manipulated by the Right to paint us as gender extremists FFS when only 2 prisoners have ever accessed it! When you replace class and citizenship as our guiding values on the Left for identity politics, you make it impossible to get to the 51% democratic majority required to win power.
It’s the economy, the economy, the economy and when it isn’t the economy, it’s culture wars our middle class activists are promoting!
Look at the stats: When Labour are in, wages go uo and Unemployment goes down!
We need to be focused more on making Capitalism fair and less on alienating woke social justice memes.
The latest Roy Morgan Poll showing Labour + Greens + Māori Party can beat the Government shows the greatest jump for the Left are male voters coming back to the Left.
The Trump result highlights just how dangerous pandering to middle class woke identity politics really is for the Left.
The NZ Left needs to dump the outrage olympics, dump the cancel culture bullshit, tax the rich and ‘cloak the woke’.
‘Cloak the Woke’ is a term I’ve created to help left wing organisations. If you have a toxic radioactive woke activist in your midst, cloak that woke! Hide them so people don’t realise they are part of the organisation.
The Tiso Counter: Very similar to the Geiger counter, it measures radioactive wokeness. 1 Tiso will make you sick, 5 Tiso’s will kill everything except vegans.
The Emily Writes syndrome: That moment when you like a social media post without realising it’s a radioactively woke person and you quickly unlike the post within 30 seconds.
We see this already happening with an avalanche of small Wellington consultancies that have great sounding names and all the woke quietly listed deep inside the website so they are not prominent.
If you have a Tiso, an Emily, a Mok, a Nicola, anyone involved with the Disinformation Project, Mau, Stephanie, Emmy or a Chris working for your left wing organisation, you gotta ‘cloak that woke’ so punters don’t fall into the The Emily Writes syndrome.
The holy trinity of intersectionist critical race and gender theory is:
- ALL white people are irredeemable cross burning racists
- B-E-L-I-E-V-E ALL Women that ALL Men are rapists
- Anyone who supports Free Speech is a Uniform wearing Nazi who hates the Trans Community
There is NO wriggle room in that middle class dogma.
From 2016 the woke cancel culture went as wild as Mao’s Cultural Revolution with less nuance.
The woke have damaged the Left enough and made us as electable as a cup of cold sick, pure temple identity politics alienated voters, it doesn’t attract them.
We need Broadchurch class and citizen solidarity. There needs to be less cancel culture and far more taxing billionaires so we can properly fund universal left policies in health, education and our infrastructure.
Not one working class family is sitting around the kitchen table cancelling each other for misusing pronouns, they are sitting around the kitchen table trying to work out how the fuck to pay the bills!
Labour + Greens + Māori Party can win the next election, we will blow it as soon as the woke middle class activists start shitting on men again.
The woke need to back to sleep thanks.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
The only lesson to learn from Trump and Luxon is to lie for the two years leading up to the next election and you will win .But you must repeat the lies every day so that people just accept what you are saying is real because very few of us fact check anything and the media certainly dont and will print those same lies without bothering to do any back ground work .
Yep death by a thousand cuts.
“We need to be focused m ore on making Capitalism fair and less on alienating woke social justice memes.”
Our focus, our attention has always been a key battleground area between we, the people and the captains of industry/finance….as we can see here, calling for fairness in capitalism will cost them money, hence why wokeness exists…it exists to draw our attention away, or to divide our attention from, what really matters – economic equality for the masses. Wokeness being just their latest tool designed to divert our attention away from what really matters…their media machine, their two-party political illusion, their bread an circuses being but some of the others. In short, we are still at war, the time-honored class war, but now days, we are getting hammered. Think we need to wake up to this fact, because currently, we are the one’s at sleep more so than the manufactured woke brigade.

The graph showing increased wages under Labour ought to show the left to always focus on Its The Economy Stupid. Trump has just shown that is true by campaigning on the economy and winning with union support.
The battle for women and gay rights was won. Women and gay politicians, leaders, judges, fund managers, bankers, vice chancellors all over the place. Rather than take the win they provocatively got down with the 1 in 400 people who think cutting off their cock feels right and that should be celebrated with children in public libraries.
It’s a pretty simple lesson, and it’s the reason they lost. Firstly, Labour needs a new leader. Secondly their policies need to make big changes no more tinkering around the edges, which means real social change. Tax reform etc…. It’s the reason Democrats lost, they shoulda taken a good hard look at the complete turn around in Labours fortunes because they got the exact same. Bernie said it, and they shoulda listened.
Remember when left wing disinformation projects started censoring free speech culminating in Trump being cancelled from Twitter rather than letting people judge information for themselves. Now Trump is purging the censors who broke laws. https://youtu.be/JsL7fTJpHIw?feature=shared
haha The Tiso counter.. hilarious.
Close to 94 percent of eligible voters voted in 1984.
Less than 79 percent voted in 2023.
To quote W.B.Yeats ‘ The worst are full of a passionate intensity while the best lack all conviction’
Those who hate vote. Those disillusioned, discontented, betrayed too often, retreat into apathy and watching cat videos on Youtube.
The Labour Party exists as the lesser of evils rather than an attractive alternative. It does not need a change of leadership so much as a change of direction.
Yes stevie but to change direction they need a new driver,Willie?
Yes! Keep bringing that up. Willy Jackson as leader of Labour. Say it enough hopefully it will happen.
Labour, the Greens and TPM? Wouldn’t that be as problematic as the current MMP coalition?
No, Bozo, it wouldn’t. Bozo
I hope the king of the pigs has got his troops rounding up the Bishops mobsters and is loading all those bikes onto trucks to be transported to a lockup .The cops will be in court tomorrow getting a court order to seize their assets as they are the proceeds of crime .
OH THATS RIGHT PIGS CANT FLY .
One thing the left (especially the Greens) could modify is the school principal lecturing style that makes people turn off or deliberately do the opposite.
Wake up Labour from your eminent position ‘high in the instep’ as they used to say in early 1800s which is where we’ll reverse to soon. Stop looking at your navels, you may find they turn into oranges and while you are frazzled you will be trumped by the USA orange one grown to pumpkin size.
I think young to middle-aged Labour-lights have been infected by what’s in this Queen song.
So they must cure themselves for Lent before they have lent all that we have to people and corpse that will never give it back. I should coco.

Adventure seeker on an empty street
Just an alley creeper, light on his feet
A young fighter screaming, with no time for doubt
With the pain and anger can’t see a way out
It ain’t much I’m asking, I heard him say
Gotta find me a future move out of my way
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now
Listen all you people, come gather round
I gotta get me a game plan, gotta shake you to the ground
But just give me, huh, what I know is mine
People do you hear me, just gimme the sign
It ain’t much I’m asking, if you want the truth
Here’s to the future for the dreams of youth
I want it all (give it all I want it all)
I want it all (yeah)
I want it all and I want it now
I want it all (yes I want it all)
I want it all hey
I want it all and I want it now
I’m a man with a one track mind
So much to do in one lifetime (people do you hear me)
Not a man for compromise and where’s and why’s and living lies
So I’m living it all, yes I’m living it all
And I’m giving it all, and I’m giving it all
Oh oh yeah yeah ha ha ha ha ha
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I want it all
It ain’t much I’m asking, if you want the truth
Here’s to the future
Hear the cry of youth (hear the cry of youth) (hear the cry of youth)
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all and I want it now
I want it all yeah yeah yeah
I want it all, I want it all and I want it now
Oh oh oh oh oh…
Although this isn’t a lesson for the left, it’s a lesson in te reo. When the KCs emailed two people, you might have thought they would have used the correct plural. It kind of undermines the rest of the letter.
