@ProfHall1955 @Grossmanite Do you think this situation can last stably for a long time without a revolution?

Marx's check mate
Either you accept we're headed for fully automated production, meaning no labour to exploit for profit + no wages to pay / no consumers to buy commodities
Or that capitalism cannot achieve full automation & hits absolute limits in innovation - meaning collapse

I like the ferry names. But Peters giving one a Maori name, despite all his bluster about wokeness and Maorification, tells you where he really lies on such issues.
He could have gone Cook and Tasman, for example.

@Notangrydisaptd @nzfirst @winstonpeters Not bothered by the names, i dont like the politics of it.
Cook, seems odd only because it on the Cook Straight
Kupe take it all leave it.

@plebnz @nzfirst @winstonpeters I don't like New Zealand first but nothing about this is controversial or out of the ordinary.
Do you like the names?

New Zealand will be amazing when I am Prime Minister.

@Notangrydisaptd @nzfirst @winstonpeters Titantic... fitting
Go read ship naming conventions and you note the word "almost"
The timing of this was a political stunt for his retarded demented followers and to hide the fact there 3 years away and cost more.
English
@plebnz @nzfirst @winstonpeters Lol, I love it when people are confidently wrong.
Guess how many years before launch Titanic was officially named?
It was 3 years.
The same as this.
Lol bro genuinely how can you be so confidently wrong? I get that you didn't know, but why did you think that you did?

@KyleKulinski @JDVance They did say "Drain the Swamp" what they didnt say was we are "Replacing it with a Cesspit"

@JDVance You’re a lying disgrace and you belong in prison. Fuck you. Zero integrity warmongering hack pretending to be the voice of reason.

This is completely bogus. I never received a message like this.
If I had, I would have said: Jared and Steve are trusted members of the president's team and very dear friends. No one has done more than the two of them to work towards peace and prosperity in the region. The idea they're trading on insider information is absurd.
I see a lot of BS flying around and I normally just ignore it. But Steve and Jared are good dudes and I'm honored to work with them.
The Hormuz Letter@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: Iran calculated $9 billion in profits from market manipulation by "individuals close to Trump," mainly Kushner and Witkoff, and formally requested $4.5 billion of that sum be allocated to Iran through intermediaries, adding that "the exchanged texts will ultimately become part of the historical record," a senior Iranian official tells Drop Site. Iran sent a private message to Vance during the Switzerland talks warning that Kushner and Witkoff were "abusing" the negotiations, "more interested in exploiting insider knowledge to profit in financial markets than reaching a deal." Iran also expressed concern about repeated leaks from Kushner to Netanyahu, since Witkoff and Kushner “talk almost every day to Netanyahu” and the head of Mossad.

So @winstonpeters breaks convention names the InterIslander Ferries before launch. Reason= to try and manufacture a controversy (tea cup size) to hide cost and a distant 3 year delivery date.
How much did these ferries cost including cancellation?

3 years ago, Luxon and Willis stood in front of New Zealand and said they were going to fix the cost of living. Now, things are worse, costs are up across the board, and they’ve completely given up trying to fix it. Only Labour is focused on helping hardworking Kiwis get ahead.

James Lindsay: "inclusion," as DEI practises it, isn't about race or sexuality at all. It's exclusive of anyone who disagrees with the ideology, inclusive of anyone who agrees with it.
He traces the policy back to Stalin's korenizatsiya, a century before "DEI" was a term.
