…I don’t care about scabs. If you refuse to join the union but then benefit from the better conditions they negotiate, you are a scab. Union members should be rewarded for a better negotiated deal, these scabs are just lucky they will also benefit from the better pay and conditions. Screw them and their whining, the audacity of these scabs!
Seymour’s simplistic neoliberal solutions to free speech should be rightfully mocked, but the blind anger and depltforming wokeness brigade will attempt to interpret Seymour as a Nazi and drown him in all the bile vegans can manage to retch up.

We have known for a long time that the Israeli government funds intensive online attacks against people who criticise their policies or express support for the BDS movement (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) against Israel or actively support the Palestinian struggle for human rights.
A person attacked in this way will find messages posted online calling them a “Nazi”, “anti-Semite”, “Jew-hater” etc and will typically feel shocked and overwhelmed.

On 23 May, news broke that Israel had agreed to pay compensation to two photo-journalists who had been attacked by two Israeli soldiers four years ago, in the Palestinian village of Nabi Saleh. One of the assailants was a commissioned officer. The Israeli Army claimed that the journalists had led what it called “violent riots” that day.
This is a blight and a stain on us as a people and listening to mostly white people hold up the bodies of dead children to justify a brutal neoliberal agency who are cost cutting and pretending they are protecting children makes me vomit.
This case has not so much to do with New Zealand in one sense. In reality you are facing the wealth, power and wrath of corporate America who argue they have lost unearned income through filesharing services you helped provide for internet users.
TVNZ’s Colmar Brunton poll had support for making cannabis legal at 39%, versus 52% for the status quo. It’s a drop from two years ago. A Newshub/Reid Research poll was also concerning, with 42% saying they would vote Yes, but 48% would vote No.
