Spinoff summarises Seymour from his fiscal plan announcement, as saying, 'New Zealand had “drifted so far to the left” that Act was “a little bit like England in May 1940 as the only ones holding the line for sanity.”' So many things wrong with that, including the embedded racism.

I mean, a number of young fascists think he's a fascist, and they're not likely to be incorrect given that they only started supporting him when he demonstrated his commitment to fascist ideology to them.

Some are suggesting you deliberately write inaccurate or confusing alt text, because they say this confuses AI scrapers that are analyzing images. The purpose of alt text is to help people who cannot see the image. Deliberately misrepresenting the image is a gross misuse of alt text. Don't do it.

There is something particularly ugly about an institution polishing its own historical halo while omitting the journalists who actually did the work — especially when one of them then endured years of legal threats and abuse. Credit is not a decorative extra in journalism.

As I said the first time this study was proposed, this is unconscionable and would absolutely not fly in any wealthy nation.

Some anonymous person tried to delete a section of Harete Hipango's Wikipedia article—the bit mentioning she was caught getting a staffer to scrub info on her attending an anti-vax rally. Reinstated, article protected. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harete_...
On 27 January 2022, Hipango acknowledged that she had asked a member of her staff to edit her Wikipedia biography to remove any mention of negative or controversial issues that Hipango was involved in, including her attendance at anti-vaccination rallies. The staff member deleted the "Controversies" section of her Wikipedia page four times, identifying themselves as a staff member and therefore a person with a conflict of interest according to the Wikipedia community. Hipango later said that she regretted this request.

I concede they will be constrained by the law. It's the phrasing that got to me. Also don't think it is Hegseth's intention to shield it. I fully expect multiple angles and slo-mo replays. I hope I'm wrong.
