Within living memory, we've gone from a job for everyone to no jobs for anyone, including highly qualified graduates. Nobody under 50 has any idea what full employment prioritised over delivering profits looks like. None of this happened by accident.😡 #PeopleB4Profit #OneTermGovernment #nzpol

You didn’t vote for these policies. The Government did them anyway
From a social media ban to council amalgamation, these are the major changes the coalition parties didn’t campaign on.

I can't stress this enough. If we're going to fix the crisis in just the health system, we *must* TAX WEALTH. Right now, they pay less than half the tax we do on every single dollar they make. If we don't tax wealth then we can kiss our public health system goodbye. It's as simple as that. #NZPol

A 🧵 for #NZPol Communist! Socialist! 1/9
Communist! Socialist!
A word that does your thinking for you.

Someone proposes a policy. Out comes "communist," or 'socialist." or both. Sometimes a "woke" is an added bonus

Ask them what the word means, and watch the reply. Or lack of one. That's not an accident.

These are catchphrases, repeated until they feel like arguments and they work because people don't stop to question this

The trick is simple. A scare-word swaps a real, specific policy for a giant scary abstraction, so vou react to the fear instead of reading the detail. It's intentional. Politicians use this tool often, t is meant to switch vour critical thinking brain off

And at election time that is the whole game.

If a label can make you vote against an idea before you understand what it actually contains, your vote has been steered by a slogan, not data or facts.

Learn what these words actually mean 

Once you learn this, the trick stops working.
