@goddek When our Prime Minister told us that the Govt would be our 'single source of truth' on anything covid-related; and seeing this kind of nonsense:

What was the biggest red flag at the beginning of the plandemic for you that made you doubt the official narrative?

@ethanjmanera @NewstalkZB Good.

This is how Winston Peters instructed MFAT to refer to New Zealand, rather than Aotearoa or Aotearoa New Zealand. @NewstalkZB

@DrSusanOliver1 Hey 👋 fuck off 🤗

@NewstalkZB Haha yeah immigration laws don't exclude people from visiting simply because their views offend the Gender Bender weirdos

@doritmi No.

General reminder: COVID-19 vaccines are far from perfect. But they reduce (though not completely eliminate) the risks of dying from COVID and they are not associated with increased deaths from other causes. Covid-19 is a bad disease. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P….

@cv_nicks Now do the Maori Party...

ACT - feel free to use this redesign of your logo so that we can all be reminded of the low level of support that you had in the last election. #8PercentParty

@NewstalkZB Man off to men's prison.

Protestors still streaming out of Auckland Square - maybe 50 000? #nzpol

@aniobrien 👏👏👏 bravo to you and thank you for so eloquently stating how many of us feel - the way the radical left parade and incite their (often) faux-victimhood is foul

People with disabilities & mental disorders survive & thrive everyday at work. Most of us do this by taking personal responsibility for our health. My context: I am open about the fact that I have Bipolar 1 Disorder. It is the most severe type of Bipolar & effects about 0.6% of NZers. 2.2% have any kind of Bipolar Disorder tho that statistic is 4.6% for Māori. There are many factors thought to influence why someone gets Bipolar but the consensus is that genetic inheritance is most influential. According to different pieces of research our life expectancy is between 8-13 years shorter than the general population. This gap is wider for those of us with Bipolar 1. Part of the reason for the life expectancy gap is the fact that approx 1 in 5 of us die by suicide. There is no cure and I will have to manage my disorder for the rest of my life. I have spent time in hospital and respite. I take a lot of medication everyday that has other implications on my health. I have done a lot of therapy including CBT, DBT, and ACT. Now that I am planning to have a baby I have to be under the care of Maternal Mental Health services in order to manage my medicines, wellbeing, and the baby's wellbeing (when it is conceived). My disorder makes life a lot harder for me, but about 7-8 years ago, when I was being discharged from hospital I had a choice to make. I could continue as I was going and remain on the sickness benefit until I probably cut my life short or I could accept every bit of help available and construct a life I want to live while managing my challenges. I have been stable and not taken myself off my meds since then. It is ongoing hard work but I have a life worth living. Personal responsibility: I am very big on this as when people with mental illness (particularly those that are comparatively less debilitating) use their diagnosis to make excuses for bad behaviour or to demand special treatment it makes people view all of us as less capable and less desirable to employ or vote for. It is up to us to manage our health so that we can show up for work and do the job we are paid for. We cannot expect the world to revolve around us. It is astounding to me that the Mayor of Wellington has now been diagnosed with ADHD and so her office is now ensuring that her meetings don't exceed 30mins in length and are at the beginning of the day. No. If there is a 2 hour council meeting in the afternoon she must be there and be on form. That is what the people voted for. We have seen a lot of excuse making from politicians with mental illness as their tool. This upsets me. Mental illness does not mean they cannot do the job well, but if it is impacting their ability to do so they shouldn't be doing it. Several members of the US House of Representatives past & present have been open about their Bipolar diagnoses. Likewise, one of the greatest politicians of all time Winston Churchill had Bipolar although it was called manic depression at the time. I'm unaware of any NZ politicians. Maybe I am just being irritable because it is a symptom of the manic side of Bipolar, but I get very annoyed by the performance that is made of mental illness by people who generally experience it in a less debilitating way for a temporary period of time. Yes, it is hard. Trust me, I know. But stop weaponising what is a lifelong reality for someone like me. I have to manage it in order to do well because if I don't - if I take myself off my meds and give up - I will just be another statistic.

@BexGraham The old lefty victimhood shtick - nobody can be commended for anything positive because *someone* *somewhere* is worse off. Yawn 🥱

@kiwirishhpsauce @NZNationalParty @chrisluxonmp A protest organized by politicians 🥱🥱

@cabalano Any verified sources to back your claims? All very vague and generalised. Just because you assert something, doesn't make it true. Don't let actual facts get in the way of good yarn though. PrOteSTinG tomorrow?

Covid is sweeping the country with huge numbers off work and the Gov't ignores cries for help from hospitals , retirement villages are struggling with staff off sick and clients left to toilet and feed themselves . Labour is needed back in power or NZ is going down the gurgler

@GaryPayinda How much taypayer money did Jacinda pay Pfizer?

@hellomotorbike @ChrisPenknz @NZNationalParty Why should the Covid Cult be off-limits for mockery? People still getting boosters is objectively absurd.

Why is @ChrisPenknz engaging in mockery of vaccine boosters? Is this the new normal for @NZNationalParty MPs?

@GayMaxine Maybe get a hobby

I loathe ACT and David Seymour with every fibre of my being. And, for the record, the overwhelming majority did not vote for ACT. It got in, as usual, riding on Nationals coat tails

@1NewsNZ So many people acted like such twats about Covid that they literally have to keep trying to make it a thing - to justify their behaviour/deliberately try to ignore that truth that their Govt lied to them. The likes of @1NewsNZ are too proud to admit they got duped.

Aotearoa is likely to see a "significant" wave of Covid-19 as we head into winter, a virus modeller says. 1news.co.nz/2024/05/23/cov…
