  139. There are things about his "disappearance" that seem odd. I remember before he disappeared he did videos mentioning that he had a good night's sleep and then he immediately went into a rant about how he was afraid of being detained and I thought that seemed suspicious because a person fearing for their life would be stressed and unable to sleep well. Secondly, the thing that made me suspicious was that everything happens to Lira offline in that he claims to have been detained by state security but it's not impossible for them to have arrested him during a livestream which would make it more credible, but no, it happens when there's no camera around so we only have Lira's side of the story to go on. Thirdly, Lira claims to have been warned not to leave Kharkiv or wherever he is, but they don't even make him wear an ankle monitor or something, some kind of documentation, or even send an officer for a routine check every now and then which Lira could capture on a livestream to prove that he's been telling the truth. Why would they even want Lira to remain in the country at all if he's promoting the enemy? Fourthly, Lira should have acknowledged his gratitude and relief that it was the state security services took him into custody and not the AZOV battalion or some militia that abducted him like he presumed it might. Despite Lira's claims, Ukrainian state security has not even made a statement. Until there's actual evidence, I'm sure his disappearance was for attention for patreon subs/money.

  187. It was never about free speech or hate speech but ALL speech. Soon there will be NO speech which is what they want. The fact that the media is exact about the number of protesters on either side exposes the possibility that the protesters were paid actors also known as 'crisis' actors. If the protest is legitimate, why aren't police officers pulling the two gentlemen apart at the start? Why aren't they being tackled and cuffed? Why are cameramen circling the two men? The cameramen shouldn't be too close or they'd be in danger. If the 'free speech' protesters are legitimate, then why are their protest signs written in tune with typical free speech arguments such as "Wake up", "multiculturalism is evil", or the use of quotes and photos of Orwell? Why aren't the signs naming those really in power? Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Soros? It's almost like the 'free speech' protestors are controlled opposition, they're protesting to stand up for free speech, but not too far that it exposes how fake the protest is. Where are the rows of arrested individuals sitting on the ground with their wrists tied with those plastic ties behind their backs like at the TPP signing protest? Regardless, racial abuse is unacceptable, but for the sake of a healthy, working "democracy", some degree of discussion about race is inevitable and indeed necessary given New Zealand's past. Those who wish to impose their ideological straitjacket on others should make sure that they themselves do not harbour any prejudice against others in whatever way or that would be hypocrisy. Now New Zealand played right into the hands of the globalists who want censorship everywhere. As O'Brien says to Winston Smith: "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— for ever". Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars.

  298. Very narrow debate. Firstly, if people stopped sleeping around and were more responsible, then abortion wouldn't be such a problem. Secondly, people have been demoralised and degraded by a decadent culture pushed on them by big media that has made certain lifestyles previously considered immoral decades ago now acceptable. Thirdly, the abortion industry is worth millions in the US and aborted baby fetuses are important to big food because aborted fetuses are added to foods for flavour (Senomyx HEK293). Then there is the fact that doctors/GPs are on the payroll of big pharma and it is certain that Dr Knowles is too. More to the point is that we are a society that does not value life, not only of the unborn but also of the living as well. When many hardworking kiwis are living in poverty and in conditions of squalor, then it becomes very easy to view the next generation of human beings as disposable. Indeed, New Zealand's birth rate is low and the suicide rate is high. New Zealand's birth rate is so low that it has got to the point where the government has decided to "import" kiwis. This is the result of the global depopulation agenda 21/2030. I find it interesting that at 4:33 Dr Knowles claims not to be an "ethicist" when doctors swear by the Hippocratic oath to do no harm which just shows the absolute disregard of human life. Dr Knowles represents the tyrrany of bureaucracy because the very essence of the law is the standard by which bureaucracies operate. Thus the abortion dillemma is not necessarily about pro-life or pro-choice but that the very life of humans is now the life of bureaucracies and this is evident in how much of what Dr Knowles says reflects not her personal opinion but that of big pharma and big medical.

  336. Martin Smith Those are some valid points. On the one hand you deny that Winston is a "nationalist". Yet on the other hand, you accuse Labour and the Greens of being "Marxists". Let me ask you this, if Winston went with National, would you have accused Winston of being a fascist, corporate pig? No government is ever going to satisfy a nation. The benefit of MMP is that no one party is able to govern alone, so that a wide range of parties with differing views and perspectives have to cooperate in order to govern to some degree of efficiency. By the same token, it also means that ideologies such as the ones you mentioned, are not taken too far that it harms the country. National does not want to share power. The fact is, New Zealand has never truly practiced socialism nor purely conservatism, but we have state socialism and state conservatism and both of these ideologies are the remains of the strong liberal heritage that goes back to the 1890-1910s. That's also why people can't tell the difference between Labour and National, because they exert their authority on society through their state owned enterprises. That's why Labour and National have both pursued liberal policies and even neoliberal policies, because both parties trace their history back to the Liberal government. The two party system is failing. Now Winston is a utilitarian as he believes in the greatest good for the greatest number and I agree with this. I believe in Winston through his deeds, not words or ideologies for that matter.

  400. She seems bitter about Trump who appeared interested in moving into politics and then backing out. Clark has been opposition leader for a few years until she was elected Prime Minister in 1999 while Trump's entrance into politics was successful. The reason why she seems troubled by Trump's use of social media is because he speaks directly to the electorate and not through the press. Why should the media have the monopoly of news and information? After her time at the UN, Clark seems keen to do what the other nations are doing but this means that government policy does not reflect the distinct (distinct, but deteriorating) New Zealand culture. Clark seems more focussed on New Zealand as within a region of the world THAN as a sovereign nation. What other countries are doing politically at present is the result of what they've done in the past. Clark only suggests what doesn't work by comparing what the government is doing to what is being done overseas. What is happening in New Zealand? The high teen pregnancy rate? High suicide rate? High mental illness rate? High reoffending rate? When the previous government shut down schools and hospitals, they also shut down the communities built around them. Society (which Thatcher said doesn't exist) was left to fend for itself and the result was more dependance on this government. People were left to do as they please as long as they didn't break the law and it's the decadence and decay that resulted now puts pressure on the police and the justice system. Why complain about the decandent society when morals and ethics, religious or secular, have been heavily criticised by films, television, popular academics? The last government used the NCEA system and national standards to create a culture of mediocrity. PhDs are given out for almost anything these days as long as they don't question the status quo. I know of one professor who didn't even know what conservative politics was. The public and the system are both rotting.

  418. I don't see how he calls his channel "Coach Red Pill" when there are hardly any red pill advice that he gives. It's all "be like this" and "do what I say or else you're a moron or you're a loser, or you're living in your mother's basement" which is neither inspirational nor helpful nor constructive. He tries to prove himself to his base by talking about his past experiences of sleeping with models and fat women but that's nobodies business but his but his huge ego will say that this is envy which in turn only shows his desire to place himself at the top of the social pyramid. Nobody cares who he sleeps with nor is this a contest. We just want advice. When I first listened to a couple of videos, I thought okay. But over the course it just became the same thing over and over again, "I am at the top of the social pyramid so I demand you to worship me or you're a moron or a loser". He seems to think that because he's been there and done that, he's wise with his beard and ballcap and his arty farty camera angles. He's just trying to validate himself by talking about his accomplishments and seeing if people leave comments calling him "internet dad" because if he actually knew anything else, he would offer advice about it. Red pills are supposed to make a person aware of the invisible web of control over his life and to resist attempts by the systems of power to entrap him. He wants to establish himself as a "thought leader" and have his viewers respect him and I've read on another site that he actually makes fake accounts in order to discredit opponents. He repeats the same message but in a different way. I personally don't care how "successful" he is or claims to be in life because that's his business. Very ignorant, arrogant, and narrow-minded garbage. He wants your $$$$.

  486. So when National demands a think tank, it's forward thinking. But when Labour, Greens and NZ First do the same, it's a talk-fest. Whatever. National wants a business approach but the Greens want a public consensus. Can't trust Muller at 5:50, his party under Key denied Mike Joy's warning that the rivers and lakes were toxic during an interview with the BBC. There's no point in trying to make New Zealand's meat and dairy environmentally safe when sending them on container ships around the world actually harms the environment. I don't mind a bipartisan approach but Muller seems excited and that makes me feel like he has an ulterior motive. The concern is that by working alongside businesses, the plan is to let businesses gradually take control of the project off the government's hands in order to increase profits over sustainability. On the other hand, working with business ensures progress considering the huge unpopularity of the Clark government's "Fart tax". They both are interested in cooperating but for different reasons. Muller seems to think that if the project succeeds it could be used to turn back on the government and let National take all the credit. It's clear that they differ in their intentions; Shaw at 9:54 wants to deal only with the problems that have arisen while Muller at 10:38 wants to proceed quickly to innovation and technology. The fact that Muller says that New Zealand produces a high amount of food suggests that he is profit driven. It seems that this "independent" working group that Muller suggested at the start of the interview seems biased against the government already. Muller is protecting the gentry from any real discomfort, political or otherwise by getting businesses as a partner which Shaw correctly diganoses at 12:47. Basically the impression one gets from Muller at 13:31 is to hand everything over to the private sector to "wrestle emissions down by sector" by taking executive authority over future governments. What exactly is Muller getting at? Shaw, don't trust Muller too much.

  575. They don't care about the life of Christ. They don't care about Christ at all. All of the facts mean nothing and any evidence of Christ as the Messiah means nothing to these people. It says in the New Testament in John 10 that when they picked up stones to throw at the Messiah, the Messiah asked them on what grounds they wished to stone him. They replied that they didn't care for all the good works He had done, all they cared about was that Christ was a blasphemer for claiming to be the Son of the Living God. They rejected Christ as the Messiah because they desired to continue living in sin. Christ rebuked their hypocrisy in knowing the law but not obeying it as they committed all kinds of wickedness in their personal lives. This goes all the way back to the Old Testament when they rejected God in favour of a king and this was after they had Moses to lead them through the desert, provided manna, drew water from a rock, gave them laws on stone, parted the Red sea, provided a bronze serpent to heal them, and so on. Christ healed the lame and the blind and performed incredible miracles as the Father had done, even right in the eyes of those Pharisees and they still didn't believe who the Son was and even blasphemed God by claiming Christ to be posessed by demons. Christ healed the servant of a Roman officer in Capernaum and the officer was grateful. Christ reluctantly, but to glorify the Father, turned water in wine at a wedding in Cana and the host was surprised at the reversal of the tradition of serving the best wine first, and when people are too drunk to notice, to serve cheap wine. Miracle after miracle performed by Christ in their very sight and they still rejected God. When Jesus was crucified and was resurrected, even those who witnessed this were threatened by the Pharisees not to spread this news. No wonder God refers to these people as stiff-necked.

  732. This discussion is fraught with many attempts by Dann to catch Peters out. Peters is trying to bypass cultural and religious differences by making such differences a matter of personal preference. Migrants are used to impede economic and political progress and migrants must choose to join or get left behind and that's why Peters is trying to pass the values bill. Dann thinks he can catch Mr Peters out at 2:07 onwards by putting words in Mr Peters's mouth but fails as Mr Peters wants his views made absolutely crystal clear. Admirable effort, Mr Peters. The main influence of culture today is not religion nor tradition, but corporate owned social media which is why he wants a dialogue with the public because they are increasingly using social media. Dann consistently tries to shift the discussion into matters of race and religion in order to get a volatile reaction from Peters. Peters remains focussed on the law which lets him dodge Dann's questions, for the most part. Dann tries to get Winston riled up at 4:26 in order to say something that could start infighting among Labour and NZF. Then Dann asks about the unions and at 6:19 Peters is right because unions can't be trusted anymore as unions, especially the NZEI, PPTA, NZNO, are the ones pushing for industrial action. These unions are hugely undemocratic as they allow their members to decide to strike or not while refusing to bargain with the government in order to make it look bad in the media like with the nurses's strike. Dann seems to downplay what NZF has achieved as Peters clarifies at 6:46. The Dann at around 7:06 brings up the capital gains tax and tries to rush Peters into giving an answer while denying it. Peters understands that Labour was willing to work in an MMP environment which is why he states that Labour changed its policy before the last election. Then again at 8:34 Dann tries to put a wedge between Labour and NZF by asking if Peters has too much sway. One only has to look at various European nations to see the people rising up against these globalist elites who finance boths sides of the political divide. What is MMP, Dann? Why do you hate MMP, Dann? Dann seems to be gathering intel for the National Party by asking if Peters will consider going with National at the next election. That's why Peters turns the interview around on Dann at 10:17 because National has no interest in making MMP work.

  734. Faafoi is finding himself overwhelmed. That's understandable because it shows how neglected the public broadcasting sector is under the last government compared with the private sector. National shut down TVNZ 6 and 7 and this reflects the National party's attitude towards democracy, the public, and New Zealand as a nation. The fact that New Zealand culture does not have much presence in the media is symptomatic of the globalist framework of the previous government. National refused to accomodate local players in the sector (Sommet Sports, Stratos Television) in favour multinational corporate television networks (Bravo). However, this is not about what people watch or how they watch certain media content, but the ideas and impressions formed by that content. Thus public broadcasting no longer has the monopoly of public opinion which is now held by private corporate media which Faafoi concedes. However, I sense that Faafoi wants to empower the people within a corporate environment by refocussing state assets in order to make the public actual participants in the media to reflect their own lives in search or a genuine existence and not as bystanders passively accepting the big tech, big media, PSYWAR/ MINDWAR brainwashing. Corporate broadcasters have access to money, technology, brand trust that state broadcaster doesn't usually have. New Zealand's sovereignty is being dissolved slowly from the inside. Why does Dann criticise the lack of regulation of the insurance industry and then criticise Faafoi for having to seek Winston's approval? That is how MMP works, Dann. What is this nonsense of Winston having gone rogue? If anything, Shipley went rogue on Winston AND democracy. The three parties in the coalition keep each other in check which is a far better than one party calling all the shots without public consultation.

  879. Read my comment carefully once more and point out the part where I say that Trump hates competition. I am referring to Ardern's recent appearance at the UN and the attention she received in the US media. Do you not see how some sentences begin with her name? Trump has scared the west into being concerned with where they stand in their relationship with the US and it's going to be hard from this point on. It's hard for smaller economies like New Zealand to have some degree of influence on the US and the only way is to force the US into compacts with a host of medium to smaller nations. The Chicoms are working with US corporations like Apple and Google to bring about a post-industrial, nanotech-grid-panopticon, techno-fascist bureaucracy, future society. They already influenced university students in the US into becoming the Red Guards of Mao. The Chicoms do business by approaching smaller nations, "providing" them with roads and buildings, and then flooding these smaller nations with fake pharma and agra products in order to extort these nations with loans they struggle to pay back. Now they're doing this to the US with steel. Apple products have backdoor systems which can be hacked by the Chicoms. Is that fair? The dominance of the Chicoms is down to the fact that they are sneaky and cunning. This has gone on for so long under previous administrations and now Trump is trying to do something about this. This is not about who dominates the economy because the people have goals, dreams and aspirations beyond wanting to dominate the global economy. The economy is about meeting the wants and needs of the people through trade and enterprise. Not dominance. You're thinking of Neoliberalism and NOT Free market capitalism although it does lead to monopolies without checks and balances. However, this is about being careful with whom one does business. Fonterra got ripped off by the Chicoms with the milkpowder scandal and now they're considering going back there.

  1071. The point is to understand how men are perceived by women. Feminism has provided women with a kind of public relations service through which women are told that they can do anything. At the same time, men are seen as holding women back also known as the patriarchy even though there are more women occupying CEO, managerial, and even parliamentary positions. There's a reason for this and that is because feminism cannot exist on its own or else it wouldn't achieve anything. The slogan "The Future is Female" as a statement of the Hegelian dialectic of historical progress of gender illustrates how necessary feminism relies on hostility towards men which is why women enjoy certain freedoms, e.g. women avoiding serious jail terms. That's why "rape culture" and the "rape stare" exist, because feminism cannot succeed without males as enemies. This is nothing personal to men, because feminism only works as a MOVEMENT. Feminism's progress depends on antagonism which is why equality is impossible because the very movement IS HOSTILE that anything which seems neutral will be forced to take either the side of feminists or the patriarchy e.g. "male feminists". Then there are women who reject feminism. ALL women are feminists. Sure feminism can exist in the abstract sense, but they don't want equality. They want to smash the glass ceiling which is a nice, obvious symbol of the ILLUSION of their personal flaws and imperfections only to CONTINUE their demand for more rights and freedoms which the state happily complies in order to get more votes. There will NEVER be a moment in time when feminists declare their purpose fulfilled because it is a self-serving system for professional women only. The typical female contract cleaner or nurse is ignored. Now feminism does have a legitimate cause, which is to empower women, not to compete with men, but to fully develop their abilities, potential, and self-worth as women. But this has been corrupted by female bureaucrats who form this particular panel, and globalist bankers. Without hostility towards men, feminism drifts towards self-parody by trying to appear intellectual with such terms as "intersectionality" etc.

  1165. Dann puts down the economy at the start of the interview. Love that Robertson admits the failure of the tendering of contracts. He doesn't hide from the unpleasantness of certain policies. Also love that he leaves certain matters to those entrusted to deal with them. Then Dann brings in the issue of business confidence at 4:06. Under Key there was ZERO GROWTH. Robertson doesn't want to borrow money from the reserve bank because it means debt. Robertson is being careful which is what Dann refers to as being in a straitjacket. Being in debt means prioritising having to pay it off than to spend the money which is why much of New Zealand's infrastructure was underfunded in the last government. That's why National privatised some of New Zealand's assets. That's also why National went back on its promises of tax cuts a few times. Being in debt is a means of taking control of the economy by stealth and giving it to the bankers which is why there's little business confidence. Robertson is working with what is leftover in the Treasury from the last government so that he can take some control back. Robertson is trying to get the economy to emerge from the chains put on it by the business community. Dann tries to accuse Robertson of being sneaky at 7:25 but Robertson states that this is a matter concerning those government departments. These departments are treated as a middle ground between the state and the business community which is why the business community is only happy when they are able to have some influence which is usually under National. Thus when the economy did well, that's because much of the business influenced government policy their way. Robertson knows when to act and when to back off. Then at around the 9:00 mark Dann tries to upset Robertson by mentioning Shane Jones's comment. I'm not a Labour fan, but I like what's going on so far.

  1170.  @felixrudder5796  Fair enough. But if Harry and Meghan were commoners would they still enjoy the same respect and reverence from the public? Is Harry held in esteem because of the things he says and does or is it because he is a prince? It's very easy to confuse the two. Listen to the reason given by the girl sitting in the middle for admiring Markle at 3:02 which is that her admiration of Markle is because the other girls in her educational year level admire her. Is this healthy for a democracy? Every action by individuals in the public sphere is a ratification of policy in some way. When a serious public matter arises, we need a public capable of reason and sound judgement to solve such problems peacefully. When six major corporations control 90% of the media and in turn what the public see, hear, and then think, then I have concerns as to the truthfulness of what these media companies tell the public. I am concerned about the level of conditioning of the public through propaganda and we shouldn't just give our admiration, respect, and especially our minds and intellects to just anybody because that's the way it's always been or because the media tells us to or because an overwhelming majority reach a consensus regarding a matter. Edward Bernays and the entire public relations machine has altered forever the entire democratic process beyond repair. I am concerned that celebrities use their charisma to endorse certain ideologies and policies to sway an unsuspecting, trusting, naive, gullible, and, to a certain degree, ignorant public. I don't doubt Harry's intentions, but when we as a species need a prince to tell us to be kind to one another when this should be commonsense, then I fear for the society to come.

  1372. By removing Ross from the party, National seems to prefer to remain in denial which is the usual thing for them e.g. poverty. I bet Ross cares about the National party which is why he spoke out against Bridges. I bet Ross cares about the National party moreso than any of its members which is why they all wanted him gone as Boag claims it is one person against 55 others. It isn't so much that the caucus is united behind Bridges as it is really about getting as much hate poured on Ross. The National party has shown that it prefers to pretend that nothing's wrong than to deal with Ross in a way that wouldn't have been so disastrous for Ross, the party or democracy in general. Ross was the closest thing National had to a conscience. At 1:55 Mapp's comments reveals the cognitive dissonance required to be a National mp. Edward's comment at 2:39 that Bridges is going to position himself as a broom is nonsense. Bridges is the reason why National is in this mess. Bridges is transparent? No, it's Winston Peters that's transparent. At 3:09 Boag's attempt to assume that this dispute is one big enigma is called out by Dann, well at least to Boag it's a "mystery". Boag is also proof of National's cognitive dissonance. None of these people actual call into question if whether the actions of the National party have harmed democracy. But then that'd be an easy answer in the affirmative. Again at 3:46 Boag treats the fiasco as a mystery so that things like the truth are hopefully swept under the carpet. Edwards comment on Bridges future as being uncertain at 4:06 is nonsense. We've been there before e.g. Taito Phillip Field. At the end at 5:52 Boag tries to move attention away from National by mention of a bipartisan consideration of what is a serious "mental health issue". National acts as though it hasn't learned its lesson and it doesn't care for it either.

  1383. No, Slime-mon did not make it up on the spot. What about when Key threatened funding of the Human Rights Commission in regards to the GCSB bill? Trashnal have a history of this. What about bulk funding in schools? Universities never tolerated free speech. One's entry into the higher levels of study is permitted not only on grades but on grounds that they do research within a very limited scope. Professors are the last people IN THE WORLD who are capable of independent thought because they aren't meant to. They teach the status quo. At 3:55 it is revealed that the whole point of the free speech dispute was to get Slime-mon up in the polls. Campbell is just there to advertise for Slime-mon and the Trashnal party. Curtin seems to miss the point that Trashnal doesn't want to adhere to MMP which is why NZF has gone with Labour. Trashnal doesn't care for coalitions because they want to get their way without ANY opposition which is HUGELY UNDEMOCRATIC. Not that we had a democracy anyway. What is Campbell going on about at 7:40? Slime-mon's done virtually nothing except ride a wave of discontent invented by the media that they're now hoping will make him prime minister at the next election. Campbell is angry because the business community isn't going to get as much freedom as it did under the business party also known as Trashnal. Campbell doesn't understand that the social crusades of his time are gone and that much of the inequality today is economic. Campbell doesn't acknowledge the fact that the corporations have had so much influence in the previous "government". Parliament is after all a boardroom meeting.

  1441. The government has to allocate money for services and policies according to what is budgeted. Thus the government determines the acceptable number of people who will receive the benefit, the number of people who will receive certain kinds of medical treatment funded by the state, and in this case the number of prisoners in the prison system. Now, the money spent by the government is actually comes with a guarantee to each ministry or agency to pay the government back with, hopefully, good financial returns. Like the education sector Trashnal privatised prisons, and with the distancing of the police from society, prisoners on being released were simply left to reoffend as shown by the high reoffending rates. A few years ago the city in which I live only had TWO on duty police officers for a night shift. Society was made to fend for itself while the police were reorganised to protect private property from striking fast food workers. Now Little is trying to make the system more efficient by identifying contributing factors of crime and weeding out the career criminals from those who perhaps acted out of desperation while Dann at 5:10 is trying play on the public's fear in order to criticise Little's plans at 7:19. Crime is used by Trashnal, as in the past, to make the people afraid and the violent crimes that occur are used by Trashnal to justify a zero tolerance approach to law and order. Problem + Reaction = Solution. At 7:37 Dann tries to overwhelm Little by using fear in order to make Little appear more sympathetic to criminals and not victims. However, Little is trying to get across to Dann that those who commit crimes are just as much a victim of violence as their actual victims are.
