Oh no, measles outbreak in Hamilton! What will we do?! If only people had natural immunity that meant they had lifelong protection, like the old days!

This guy is right on target. Funny thing is he looks incredibly similar to my oldest son. Recommend you download it and send it to everyone under 30.

Scotland's Hate Crime Act comes into effect today. Women gain no additional protections, of course, but well-known trans activist Beth Douglas, darling of prominent Scottish politicians, falls within a protected category. Phew! 1/11

🎉🌼🌸April Fools! 🌸🌼🎉 Only kidding. Obviously, the people mentioned in the above tweets aren't women at all, but men, every last one of them. In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their

Thanks for publishing this RNZ, not sure how it slipped through the "don't publish anything sensible" filters but well done! rnz.co.nz/news/world/513…

This is the weirdest era in human history. By far. Nothing else even comes close. Billionaires trying to kill everyone. Civil society unable to form a coherent thought. Institutions lie in smoldering ruins. Poison handed out like candy. We are Neanderthals with iPhones.

It is both astounding and despicable that people are being called racists for opposing mass murder and engineered famines targeting civilians as a form of collective punishment. Absolutely surreal

Will RNZ News republish the latest news that J.K. Rowling has effectively check-mated Scotland's new hate speech legislation. bbc.com/news/uk-scotla…

So RNZ has done it again. Today's syndicated story about Hate Speech has had a whole paragraph removed. Because no-one must know that working class Scottish laddies agree with J.K. Rowling See rnz.co.nz/news/world/513… and compare it with the original.

🙅🏼‍♀️ Imagine having to raise half a million dollars to defend against a human rights claim simply for knowing men can’t be women? Sall Grover doesn’t have to imagine. This is her life since refusing to allow Roxy Tickle, a man who identifies as a woman, to use her female-only

Council debt - should Taurangas commissioners hold off from LTP sing-offs for 3 months, until the elected council is in place? Important interview for Tauranga residents. realitycheck.radio/erika-harvey-a…

I sometimes wonder what it'll take for sporting & political leaders to stop this utter nonsense. Young females are not only losing out & being injured in sports, but forced to share changing rooms & overnight accommodation with perverted males like this 👇. Enough already!!!

Scotland spent 3 years considering the laws on hate crimes before the Bill was introduced in 2020. 4 more years, after being voted into law and police training to deal with complaints, it came into force. It took J.K. Rowling less than 24 hours to demonstrate why it is

'Our daughters stayed quiet because they are afraid. We tried to speak up for them, and we were shut down... name-calling and the threat of mental health is being used as emotional blackmail to keep us all quiet while women are harmed and devalued.' #WomensRightsAreHumanRights

@SpiderCatNZ ProfAnanish demolished Baker's claim as "inaccurate and meaningless". It's telling that even after the estimate was revealed as "deeply problematic" Baker still feels free to reference it today. bassettbrashandhide.com/post/ananish-c…

203 comments were made; RNZ deleted all but 21. Only two permitted comments were critical. Then RNZ closed comments. Our national broadcaster manipulates responses to its news.

Most of Scotland is upset and offended by Yousaf’s bumbling incompetence and illiberal authoritarianism, but we aren’t lobbying to have him locked up for it.

There's no difference between those who hushed up paedophile priests to protect the church and those trying to make it unsayable that some trans-identified men are sex offenders. Both prize an ideology more highly than acknowledging risk and preventing harm to women and children.
