TPU ads running in front of autoplay videos on NZME website - which are again AI generated Hipkins - REALLY feels like it shouldn't be allowed. Media can't keep getting away with claiming "objectivity" for verbatim reporting PR lines, or refusing to attack the rightwing, while this incentive exists

the problem with patched gangs is they’re always so easy to identify. if you’re in the pākehā mafia you get euphemistically referred to with terms like “property developer”, “lawyer”, “businessman”, “investor”, etc. instead

Look, if all they had changed was just enrolling and voting on polling day that would have been one thing, but stopping enrolling TWO WEEKS before election day is outrageous and even previous Nats who stopped prisoners voting had not taken such an outrageous step We should be angry out loud! #NZPol

Next Dirty Politics hit job just dropped. The NZ Initiative and ACT want to follow the Trump playbook of political appointments of senior public servants and ministry staff. This is the opening salvo in their undermining and Overton windowing www.thepost.co.nz/politics/361... #nzpol. #dirtypolitics

thepost.co.nzWill the ‘bureaucratic priesthood’ let the next government deliver its promises?A new study finds officials have “employed subversive behaviour to stymie governments of both sides of the political divide”.

Apparently a paedophile rapist doesn’t care if someone commits paedophiliac rape.

Q: Amy Acton's stepfather was indicted for rape. Now that you know all that, sir, do you change your mind about the ad? Trump: No. I don't care

Lots of "politicians and gangs" in the election news. For completeness, I'd like to see "politicians and people who believe great replacement theory", "politicians and extremely conservative religions", "politicians and pedophiles who were the head of the party and had that fact suppressed" too.

I know there’s a bit of buzz for Jack Lowden as the new Bond, but honestly he’s playing such a fuck up on Slow Horses I feel that vibe would inevitably carry over unless he could really deliver an about face of character. #Bond #007 #JamesBond

I think the new political term for Hipkins' ongoing shittiness to female politicians of the Left should be "the sausage roll" #nzpol
