Also a relative latecomer to economics, shocked to realise realising how selective economics is in its applications, interpretations and models. Certain people are continually and selectively misquoted and the same people always lose out. Enjoyed: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_Coo...

consistently frustrated by progressive spaces heeding the liberal urge against conflict and giving way to the far right i think the left should be reflecting a fair bit more about where they won't cede ground, or acquiesce, rather than being forced into a final stand when most everything is gone

“The picture Hager’s trilogy paints of the last 20 years is not of democracy corrupted by a few bad apples, but of the brutal conflict between the interests of ordinary people and those of the rich and powerful.” #nzpol

Replay: Using racism and prejudice as a political tool has become almost routine in election campaigns, but many believe this election year (2023) has been particularly nasty. #nzpol Very little has changed and, as Dirty Work shows, a lot of time and money goes into the nastiness and still does.

“Someone in Government has to wake up each morning with nature as their only job. Economic development against conservation is fast becoming a false choice, because the storms, floods and fires now arriving send the bill for every natural buffer we remove.” #nzpol www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/there-is-...

There is an $11b benefit that belies the Govt's flawed conservation reforms

🐦‍⬛❕HUMAN EXPERIENCE Stickers have been restocked on my ko-fi!! :> ko-fi.com/s/3ecf690ed7 #formline #indigenousart #telekitneticart
A picture of a 3-inch anti-generative AI rainbow holographic sticker with a formline design on it. The design has a black border with sparkles lining it. Text within the border reads “you cannot automate the human experience.” The formline design depicts a decapitated robot head with vacant eyes. Next to it are two ravens, with one raven perched on the head with a piece of the robot’s antenna in its beak.

❌ The whole world is doing it tough ❌ No, we are pretty much going it alone with our crush the economy and set ourselves back a decade or two strategy. Orr started it, Robertson helped it along, and then Willis doubled-down on stupid - letting let the TPU, Act and NZI loons call the shots. [Ends]

Statistics from the UK showed that people in manual labour retiring at 65 die are likely within 9 months. For each year they retire early they live an extra year. Work till you drop, so Luxon can take his MP's pension for the next 35 years. #NZPol
