@Megalithic12000 Polynesia's myths of Maui are pretty interesting, some have said he may have been a real Egyptian adventurer, it's pretty fringe though

In New South Wales Australia there are stones carved with what appear to be ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Mainstream archaeology says they are modern carvings. Others believe they are evidence of ancient contact that would rewrite history. That question remains contested outside mainstream archaeology and there has already been physical work carried out in the area. The Gosford Glyphs are located in the Kariong area north of Sydney. Carved into sandstone walls they depict what many researchers describe as ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and proto-Sinaitic script. If genuine they would predate any known contact between Egypt and Australia by thousands of years. Mainstream archaeology considers them modern carvings. That debate has been running for decades and has never been conclusively closed outside the academic mainstream. 🔹Impact on the site remains disputed 🔹Resemble ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs 🔹Land management works in the area 2023 🔹Mainstream says modern, others say ancient 🔹Carved sandstone inscriptions, New South Wales 🔹Debate continues outside mainstream archaeology In 2023 geotechnical safety works were carried out in the wider Kariong area due to rockfall risk. There is disagreement about their impact on the site. The official position is they were necessary safety measures. Others believe they caused damage. The full picture remains disputed. But here is the point that transcends which side of the debate you are on. If the question of what these inscriptions are has not been answered to everyone's satisfaction, then any irreversible changes before that answer is found represent a loss. You cannot re-examine something with better technology in ten years if it no longer exists in the same condition. Real or not these inscriptions deserve protection until we know what they are. What do you think the Gosford Glyphs actually are?

@RightLenz @itzjustdubz @AP I mean I didn't say that, I was more pointing at the fact that with less bush being replaced by farm land there would be less birds as a factor also rather than your point that Maori just ate everything

@BoydFlavell @itzjustdubz @AP I haven't been conditioned to hate anyone - nor have I been conditioned to believe that Maori life before European colonisation was bliss, because the facts beg to differ.

The kiwi, New Zealand’s sacred national bird, vanished from the hills around Wellington more than a century ago. Now the capital’s residents are waging a citizen campaign to return the endangered flightless birds to the city.

@RightLenz @itzjustdubz @AP Or you're being conditioned by a minority of propagandists to hate people you've probably grown up with your whole life, being a grown up is accepting both sides of an argument have truths, and both sides have manipulation.

@BoydFlavell @itzjustdubz @AP Lol. Unlike the so called indigenous and their taongas, I don't falsely claim that 'my people' have a special attribute for preserving endangered species. Their insecurity as a people seems to manifest itself in blaming colonisation for everything.

@JamesOnekaka @TaxpayersUnion Yeah I wouldn't put your faith in someone who is constantly pumping his AI stock on his own platform effectively contributing to the expanding ai bubble, he's cut of the same cloth, don't be fooled, anyone with more wealth than a country cannot be trusted.

@BoydFlavell @TaxpayersUnion No Different from Zuck & others

The Green Party are proposing one of the most aggressive wealth taxes in the developed world, but the numbers don’t stack up. Our new paper exposes the economic risks and unrealistic assumptions behind the Green Party’s proposed wealth tax. The paper finds that the policy would hit farmers, retirees, and small business owners hardest. While raising far less revenue than claimed.

@steeder10 At the very least try bring smart back, but I was confused when jrue left, EVERYONE knows he's a different level athlete

‘Celtic ball’ has returned- walking the ball up the floor, no ball reversals, very few paint touches, middy % way up, extended scoring droughts. Jrue was CRITICAL to the Celtics - one of the best connectors in the NBA history. Why did Portland flip the script this season? Why did both the Bucks and Celtics finally climb the mountain? Elite composure and leadership, ball finds the right people, can be a scorer when needed and consistent winning plays on the defensive end. Every elite team has CONNECTORS: Iguodala, Jrue, Caruso, Dort, KCP, Aaron Gordon, Shane Battier, etc. Celtics are missing that piece badly right now.

@IsisShrugged @forallcurious I'm sorry you can't see the beauty in humans

@forallcurious Stay Away! We are a violent race ruled by something we don't understand.

If you could send a message to an Alien civilization, what would you say?

@JamesOnekaka @TaxpayersUnion Is the not Elon a joke?

@BoydFlavell @TaxpayersUnion Not unregulated at all! Thieving government Marxist rules are everywhere Many US tech billionaires were CIA funded (not you Elon 😃)

@DeeJZ8 @TaxpayersUnion None, we can't rely on others, if meaningful change is to occur it has to be a decentralized grass roots movement, and not here, in the states, so in all honesty my thinking is wishful hopeful thinking, not likely to happen, but hey one can hope

@BoydFlavell @TaxpayersUnion Which party do u think is capable to tackle this issue? Objectively with no bias or ‘donations’..

@JamesOnekaka @TaxpayersUnion Sorry not unregulated, deregulated, 100 percent agree, decreased financial regulation, mainly in the US, providing conditions for the dotcom bubble, 08 housing bubble, and the current ai bubble, over regulated in govt departments, mainly due to labour in the covid period

@adamemedia1 They're smart enough to understand that the human mind is infinitely more powerful than any ai, ai=productivity, human mind=complex comprehension, enabling the 2 together is infinitely more productive than replacing 1 with the other.

CHINA JUST DREW A LINE ON AI A court in China has ruled it ILLEGAL to replace human workers with AI purely to cut costs. They have put responsibility back on corporations. They can’t automate just to boost margins while workers are pushed out. China has decided that wages, fairness, and employment aren’t optional. And that’s a big shift. While the west races to replace labour as fast as possible, viewing AI as a free-for-all… China has set a precedent that profit alone isn’t enough and corporations must answer to society.

@aor4life @TaxpayersUnion Ring masters are overseas 😅

@BoydFlavell @TaxpayersUnion Yep. Our circus is run by the clowns, not the ring master.

@RightLenz @itzjustdubz @AP Id say large scale deforestation would be the most logical reason for bird life reduction, Such immature small minded thinking generalising groups of tribal people because of ones own insecurities is really fucking telling of your ability to comprehend multifaceted situations

@itzjustdubz @AP Lol. I think retard is a fitting description for someone who believes, contrary to the evidence, that the Maoris never ate kiwi birds or used their prized feathers to make cloaks. Next you'll be telling me the Maoris were never cannibals!

@NewZealandBoss @AP @Dagsyfm Why would tribal people lacking modern sensibilities need to apologise for living and providing? Crazy to see how much people have drunk from the divide and conquer propaganda that conserving our unique ecology is somehow a need for a specific group to apologise, man the fuck up

@AP @Dagsyfm The Kiwi is a shit bird. The best ones- the Moa and the Haast's Eagle were hunted to extinction by the Maori. They've never apologised for this btw.

@aor4life @TaxpayersUnion I mean it kinda shows how inept government party structure is at the moment when obviously unqualified people lacking experience set financial discourse in NZ

@BoydFlavell @TaxpayersUnion Most of the Greens membership are not exposed personally to great troves of wealth. But here they are talking up big numbers without any big finance or economics background. Degrees in the fields of the Arts does not make one a finance expert. Ask Nicola Willis.

@binoffishery @actparty If they don't import people their property portfolios collapse and rich investors lose money and normal kiwis get cheaper houses they still can't afford, make property speculation and government seperate.

@actparty Cost of living is high What's acts answer to this?... flood us with indians. Push rent/house prices further up. Give uncapped indian students 20+ hours work rights. To compete against kiwis for jobs

Kiwis are doing it tough. We’re focused on getting costs under control, cutting waste, and backing people to get ahead.

@chrisluxonmp And what happens to kiwi farm workers if this is allowed, do they get replaced by cheaper incoming labour?

@chrisluxonmp what happens if say there's a global fert shortage and countries like say India loses a lot of agricultural yields, what happens as a result they immigrate to more sustainable self sufficient countries like NZ, does this agreement allow such movements?

Trade is important stuff. Here’s why.

@the_salty_one_ @NZNationalParty @nzlabour @NZGreens @Maori_Party @actparty @nzfirst We're fucked because we put too much faith in elected officials, they've all always been fucking useless, just go to most small towns of NZ, the only ones doing well, are the town's the people have put their own efforts into, stop relying on officials come together as communities

Honestly, we're fucked. @NZNationalParty are basically @nzlabour, while @NZGreens and @Maori_Party are Socialists and Communists. @actparty have had their moments but not great, @nzfirst are the closest party we have to a centre party politically. We are fucked.

@Tommy_Valiant @kaiviti_cam So international law is wrong, you should be allowed ethnostates, genocide and global terrorism?

@kaiviti_cam regardless this makes Peters weak as shit and shows how he needs to step aside on foreign policy. USA was here for us in WW2 and with peters we turn our backs on Israel and USA with a bs excuse using Intl Law as an Excuse to sit on the side lines.

Luxon wanted to back the US on Iran. Peters said no. Now the emails are public and Luxon's in crisis talks. Here's the thing: Peters doesn't release emails accidentally. This is calculated. He's reminding everyone who's actually running foreign policy. NZ First is at 13.6%. Luxon's polling under 30% for National. The "three-legged stool" just became a unicycle with Peters steering. #NZPol

@2ETEKA @NZNationalParty I don't know much about this fta, but I worry with India's largely agricultural economy that a global shortage of fert results in large scale immigration to places like NZ where workers are replaced by lower paid immigrants further deepening the living cost crisis

@NZNationalParty 😂😂😂 the gimps are realising their toilet paper dodgy Indian deal is UNIVERSALLY UN FUCKING POPULAR. Retarded sell out bullshit artists.

There’s been a lot of misinformation about immigration under the new Free Trade Agreement with India. Much of what’s being said is spin rather than substance. Here’s the facts. This FTA does not open the floodgates on immigration. It allows around 1,700 temporary three‑year work visas per year - less than 3% of all work visas. And they can’t be renewed. Total numbers are capped so there can’t be more than 5,000 at any one time. The temporary work visa is targeted at skills New Zealand already needs - like doctors, nurses, teachers, ICT and engineers. These are roles that help keep hospitals staffed, classrooms open, and businesses productive. Claims about family migration are simply wrong. The FTA does not grant automatic rights for family members to enter, work or study in New Zealand. There is no back‑door pathway. The FTA is about lifting incomes for Kiwis, not importing labour from India. It means we can sell more of what we are good at to 1.4 billion people. It’s about bringing money into local communities, and helping Kiwis get ahead.
