I’ve been labeled a “sub-optimal person” by a Kiwiblogger.
Yesterday I returned to Kiwiblog after a six week absence. My first comment was a brief driveby shot at the infamous Double Dipper from Dipton. It didn’t go down well….
Morrissey….harden up. You know very well that Farrar’s Ferals don’t play nice, yet off you go….
The whole moderation thing is very, very new over there, give them time. They have had carte blanche since, well, forever. They are still straining against the ropes.
I do recall a few bans for behaviour. Can’t recall banning you for being sub-optimal. Going deliberate diversion off the topic of a post was always your thing.
So much for the free speech fetishists on The Daily Blog. If your criticism against Trotter or Bradbury is too trenchant it will never never seethe light of day
I posted a critical rebuttal to one of Trotter’s blogpost and it vanished
I wouldn’t panic too much Mjolnir. There has been lots of traffic over at TDB and all comments go into moderation, so there could very well be a delay.
Trotter, Bradbury, Macskasy ….they all wear big boy pants now and can cope with strong criticism.
I’ve had a few go down the memory hole, which is one reason I hardly ever comment there now. If your comment is one that would be difficult for Bradbury to rebut, it just never appears.
No doubt there’ll be many learnings going forwid from the Wellington bus fiasco @ grey, the proposed solutions which will probably do SFA to solve anything.
They’re thinking of sacking the Waikato DHB board. The GRWCouncillors ? yea nah 18 monthgs onward – letalone the ‘officials’ that came up with this bugger’s muddle in the first place. And then there’s WCC’s involvement which I pick they’ll get away with by shifting blame.
And even if and when they do manage to get things back to some semblance of order, they’ve fucked things up SO badly that it’s going to take some serious persuasion to get a certain demographic to go back to catching buses. ( If you’re one of two from a household, catching an Uber is now just as cheap or fuck-all more expensive for door to door service, and at a time of your choosing ).
Accountability???? There’ll be none
There’s actually a shitload of blame to go around, and it isn’t just Laidlaw and his cronies (elected and/or ensconced in GWRC), but it’s also WCC cronies (elected and ensconced) too. It’ll be interesting to see who ekshully has the cheek to stand come election time. I hope they put their hands up soon so they can be publicly challenged.
A punk legend in action for 50+ years! Oh bless. Only on RT of course – straight from the propaganda factory. “Westwood: I’ll get Assange out of the embassy”
What do other people do, how do they manage their part of the world? With a less complicated economy and one not dominated by the world system, can a workable system arise? On Yap they have operated their system using stones for currency.. Which reminds us that money is symbolic, and imbued with our ideas of agreed value.
Looking at Yap a small island, now a group, in the North Pacific nearish to Guam a USA military base. Apparently the Chinese will change their tourism from about 4,000 over years by erecting a resort with 4,000 units on the island? End of culture and simple autonomy to complicated slavery I think with some modern gew-gaws that alienate the youngsters from the elders. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yap#Economy
I think more cults will spring up as more people kept pushed to the fringes and to constantly have to search for stability and a settled life that enables a decent standard of living.
“A Hastings principal has slammed an increasing number of parents taking kids on holiday during term time, arguing it could ruin their kids’ and the school’s future results.
St John’s College principal Paul Melloy, who is currently in Chile on a tour with the school’s first XV rugby team…”
Waiting at the bus stop?
