"Te Pāti Māori isn't a race-based party. We are a rights-based party, and Te Tiriti o Waitangi protects the rights of everybody here in Aotearoa, not just Māori. And so don't get us wrong. Te Tiriti o Waitangi will protect you, it will protect me, it will protect our mokopuna.

"If that's the pathway National are going to go down; 'we can't tax the wealthy, they'll f%&k off', the answer to that - every single time - is;

What would you prefer; all of our tradies and nurses, or some wealthy people?"

Spotify for Creators#BHN Chippy on CGT | Simeon on bowel cancer | Sam Seder on Jubilee by #BHN Big Hairy NewsChris Hipkins was asked on Q&A if his party will be campaigning on capital gains tax at the next election, Hipkins says Labour hasn't decided yet. We wonder if not answering this is a net negative, a net positive or neutral at this stage in the cycle.Friend of the show Sam Seder went on Jubilee's Surrounded show where he faced off against 20 young conservatives. One answer in particular seemed to sum up the views of the modern conservative millennial and Gen Z crowd which showed how their idea of white supremacy is so out in the open and casual now it almost (to them) seems normal.Simeon Brown and the Coalition Government's plans to lower the age for free bowel cancer screening for all New Zealanders by "redirecting" money previously set aside to lower the age for Māori and Pasifika has been described as "disappointing". It will lead to more Maori and Pasifika peoples dying early and is another broken promise by this governmentMehdi Hasan shows us all, while talking to former Republican Congressman Joe Walsh, how to stay away from the whataboutism, and how to keep on point and not allow the subject to be highjacked by someone not wanting to talk about the issue at hand=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social

After talking about what refugees contribute to their adopted country, Pat unloads on jurisdiction-shopping techno-feudalists;

"Why aren't we helping more people at the bottom? Rather than these guys who don't need help, just because they have already amassed a huge portion of wealth, and not shared it with anybody. I don't see why we should be trying to attract these people."

The reason I ask is that Pat and Chewie are selling the BS gospel hard.
On Dec 9, they interviewed the COO of BlueSky, Rose Wang;

podcasters.spotify.com/pod/sho

As usual, the company spokesperson claims to be first to do everything, making no mention of the fediverse. No surprises there.

I was more surprised that they just talked it up as a Titter reboot, with not a single mention of decentralisation. I guess it doesn't resonate with anyone but geeks?

Spotify for Creators#BHN Rose Wang COO of Bluesky | Luxon on military style weapons | TVNZ polls back te Pati Māori by #BHN Big Hairy NewsThe COO of Bluesky is Rose Wang who joins us tonight in a pre-recorded interview about the world of social media and how Bluesky is taking a huge chunk of the market place right now. In her first NZ interview, Rose Wang shares what's happening day to day in the Bluesky office. Christopher Luxon spoke with Stuff/Three News on Friday in a sit down interview where he wouldn't commit to keeping military style weapons out of the hands of NZers, says the negotiation with ACT over the Treaty Principles Bill could not have been negotiated any better and that Military academies are not going to lead to abuse and even being asked that is offensive. TVNZ's last poll of the year...we'll lower our standards tonight just to see what's happening in the polls and in a word it's te Pati Māori riding high. EV sales drop. This time last year, more than 17,000 new battery powered EVs had been sold. However, just 5519 had sold to the end of November 2024. ================================= Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠ ================================= Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter. @patbrittenden @Chewie_NZ Follow us on Bluesky Pat @patbrittenden.bsky.social Chewie @chewienz.bsky.social Emily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.social Magenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
