When I was a gullible teenager I would have sided with the WWF, but since I’m an adult now, I realise it’s a lobby group with an agenda, and they are just fear-mongering.

Some of the recent climate change articles are getting rather nutty. They are talking about BBQ and gas cooking as if it was a bad thing, and in an article about housing, one author claimed that climate change would alter the housing market, by destroying houses in floods. They cannot go five minutes without injecting their climate change theory into everything.

I’d agree to teach programming and maths for the minimum wage if they’d let me, but there’s probably some BS requirement like needing a degree or having to pass a police check. The only thing I’ve done wrong is have the wrong thoughts about the government, that’s not even a criminal record. They only want brain-dead degree wielders to teach. If you have any anti-government views and don’t have a degree, might as well stay on the benefit. They don’t like people who engage in wrong-think, even if it’s in their own time. The failed education system is by design, and only a fool would think that Luxon and/or more funding will fix it. The education system is rotten to the core. It needs a complete re-work.

Yeah maybe VB isn’t so bad, it was the lack of inspiration from teachers and lack of role models and advice that ruined it for me.

You couldn’t make me go there just for the money. No way am I going to study 3 years just to become a teacher, when I can teach in a world class city like Moscow with only a minor qualification that takes 1 month to get.

Read the Fight Club book if you haven’t.

That last part is the real deal here. Somewhere I have an old screen-shot from Trade Me Forum where a guy said he quit teaching because they basically thought he was a pedo or something like that. As a male, you can’t dare be too friendly or jokey with any student, male or female, or you’ll have to go through some sexual predator prevention programme or something. It will only get worse, and eventually they will roll out this “woke” training nonsense into every profession. Women control all the cosy office jobs and it’s always women in HR who push the anti-male crap.

I just looked for work on Seek and Trade Me and there’s maybe 2 jobs suitable for me, assuming the hours are reasonable. I’d rather die in a ditch in Ukraine than live in a backwater country like NZ. Nobody should pretend we are first world. Look at the poverty here, and the downtrodden fools who work in supermarkets, hardware stores and distribution centres. Being a wigger, acting tough and boasting about made up stories makes you top dog in some industries. NZ is a backwater country and it will never develop into anything that resembles a decent country. In 10 years from now I’ll still be complaining about crappy over-priced rental bedrooms, and jobs that chew through staff every month.

I dropped out on my 16th birthday and I never completed level 1 NCEA. I asked to do a programming class and showed them a program I had written, but all they could offer me was Microsoft Visual Basic. Which, from my understanding, is stuff like putting a button on the screen, clicking it, and making it say “button clicked” (that was year 12’s programme for 16-17 year olds, but it’s probably more suited to a 10 year old’s level). I wanted to learn pre-uni stuff like ‘c’ and c++ but they didn’t teach that. I don’t think they even taught Python.

The male teacher who I talked to on this matter was really boring and uninspiring. I didn’t see how any of my classes would help me with my plans. The principal and secretary of the school kept on dragging me and my divorced parents into meetings because I was bogging down the school’s stats. They really are just a bunch of useless paper pushers.

I’d like to volunteer to help primary school children or speak in high school assemblies, but it’s impossible to do this, because the government-owned schools don’t give a crap about what’s good for people. Once I tried to sign up for Big Brothers Big Sisters, but the reference checks were impossible for me to pass. I think they wanted 3 people who had known me for 5+ years and it couldn’t be my best mate or family lol. Nobody has really known me closely for 5+ years because I’ve never held a full time job for 12 months. Like the wojak/doomer meme I’m mostly invisible in this society.

The government won’t fix this. What radical change to education could they possibly make? They can tweak a bit of administration, but the rotten core of the education system will remain.

You may as well write to ministers and officials, and tell them how poorly they perform, and that their actions have corrupted the country and ruined the lives of countless people.

What about Facebook? That’s full of crap too.

Don’t forget to heckle them and send some hate mail to your local council. I’m doing my part, I hope you’re doing yours ;-)

Did anyone here run the Kiwi Kids Marathon? I didn’t but my neighbours in the 90s did.

I’m fine with Sanitarium being a charity. Academics and Redditors just hate anything to do with Christianity and want to persecute Christians at every opportunity. Back to the original topic though, Sanitarium made a mistake here. I’ve thought about buying cereals from The Warehouse but the range is extremely limited, Sanitarium should definitely keep selling WeetBix to The Warehouse, I’m sure many families benefit from it.

The guy who made telegram is dodgy af. I have no idea what he’s up to, but Russia’s ministry of defence is on there, officially.

I love the russian propaganda, but I don’t approve of boomers ranting about the whole trans-gender thing. It’s too cringe for me, especially when we have problems like housing. I’ve definitely seen that hum of spam on certain issues. It’s designed to appeal to boomers and fools. The anti-vaccine and anti-WEF is totally a state sponsored operation, it’s about undermining trust in institutions on the long-term.

I’m against the NZ government and I’m against the so-called “intelligence community” too.

Houses in the middle of nowhere will be cheaper, but most jobs don’t exist out there so I think main centres are a good way to analyse it. I’ve seen Vince say something about Jews maybe once. He is a intelligent guy but sometimes his views are a bit um, off the cuff. I watched a video of his where he describes New Zealanders as being “autistic” supposedly because they can’t socialise well without alcohol. I laughed pretty hard. It was such a random opinion, somewhat true but still felt like it was heavy opinionated.

I don’t think the protest movements fit on a political spectrum of any sort. They’re just angry about things and much of it is justified, I think the government should listen to their views on vaccination. The only term that I identify with is pro-russian. The United States is basically a fascist country which hides behind a rainbow flag, but now I’m being as hyperbolic as Rangi HA-HA-HA. As far as I’m concerned, people like Valerie Morse are fascists and authoritarians. They stand with NATO and Ukraine and have no problem with missiles and artillery shells being sent to Ukraine, despite the same Peace Action group protesting against arms companies. I can’t wait for the rules based order to fizzle into irrelevancy.

The word ‘globalist’ was popularised by Alex Jones maybe 12 or 15 years ago. I don’t believe that all these middle age women at the protests are blaming Jews for the vaccine. If someone posted that suggestion on Counterspin Media, they’d probably be banned. When they say globalists, they really mean it… Outsides influences corrupting our country such as the U.N. agendas to fight climate change at the expense of good jobs.

If the zoning wasn’t regulated to benefit existing owners then apartments would be built, plus new townhouses, and these damp decaying places would be $100 a week. If there was an actual housing/rental market (you know, one with real competition, instead of a market that’s propped up by government policy) that could work, but I’m not against insulation requirements. If they sent jackboot thugs to inspect homes and threatened to shut them down if landlords didn’t comply, I’d fully support it.

National said in the news this morning that we need to fix the COL crisis, because now people are stealing FOOD from supermarkets and abusing staff, and it doesn’t get reported to Police because it happens so often. When Jacinda was debating this a few years ago, National said that people were only stealing electronics and tobacco (not food). We are living in a Bizarro World comic right now when things Labour claimed a few years ago are now real.

…Thanks National and Labour

Also, state housing normally means they have the house to themselves. I’m not in a state house or owning, I’m stuck in a crowded boarding house with 10 other people. The group that I’m in always has the lowest satisfaction, I’ll bet. Everyone is complaining about each other constantly, that’s also how we make friends, by bitching constantly about “the indians” who never stop talking loudly, and complaining about the Chinese landlord ripping us off. I’d rather have a stable house that I don’t share with others, like an apartment. NZ lives in the past. Can’t believe we don’t have apartments in the suburbs of christchurch yet…
