  • A greeeeeeat kiwi…Jeffrey Epstein Co-Owned Venture Capital Fund With Palantir’s Peter Thiel

    Once again, but shout out to Sam Morgan and Rod Drury for backing the citizenship of Peter Thiel. Jeffrey Epstein co-owned a venture capital fund controlled by Peter Thiel, founder of spytech firm Palantir which is now deeply embedded in the British state. The latest Epstein files drop from the US Ministry of Justice shows…

  • Leftists: Play the game, win the game, destroy the game – IN THAT ORDER

    About 10 or so years ago I was privy to the mechanics of a prominent left-wing party here in NZ. The single thing that stuck out: they were afraid of winning, because that meant they had to be The Man. It is very hard to be The Man when you’re identity is tied up in…

  • Don’t let the door hit you on the way out

    Good riddance… Why would Citizen Thiel abandon the downunder bosom, swap the land of the hobbits for the land of the Pumas? Is he mad about Rod Drury, one of his referees on his application for citizenship, being awarded New Zealander of the Year before he was? Is he mad about the authorities rejecting his bid to…

  • If Starbucks can’t get AI to work, what makes you think you can run a governement with it?

    The tool, which was deployed across its North American stores, was designed to automate inventory management with the goal of providing accurate real-time information that could help Starbucks address ingredient shortages at its locations.  But according to previous Reuters reporting, the error-prone AI frequently miscounted and mislabeled items, confusing different types of milk and sometimes forgetting to count…

  • Why I Choose to Live in NZ

    I could choose to live anywhere in the world. 14 years ago I chose to settle in NZ for the rest of my life. There was one very considered reason: the future. I take as guidance 1 law: the law of requisite variety. The larger the variety of actions available to a control system, the larger the variety of…

    This was awesome! https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360487380/haka-interrupts-vote-treaty-principles-bill Dear Barry Soper, fuck off with your pearl clutching. ACT introduced the hatred into parliament – those people are responding to it. As per usual… crickets from Labour

  • Dear NZ Labour: Read this – Handbook For The Politically Deceased

    We now live in a downwardly mobile society (not as bad as the US… but bad). You are an organization full of career politicians. They are so grossly of touch with reality that you’re not even in the same Venn diagram. You actively loathe the working class and elevate people who appear on the US…

  • Wanna Take a Guess Who Trump-Backing Businessmen Sound Like?

    The great German industrialists of the 1930s found Adolf Hitler crude. But they disliked democracy and taxes and regulation far more. … Those who are with Trump often reveal a harder ideological edge. Sometimes this is about the belief that Trump will be more resolute in supporting Israel. Sometimes it is openly anti-democratic. “I no…

  • I hope the ACT party will join me in celebrating…

    … a massive win for property and contract law: Iwi from the top of Te Waipounamu are entitled to thousands of hectares of land and millions of dollars in compensation for a land deal struck in the 1830s which the government did not honour. In interim High Court findings released this afternoon, Justice Rebecca Edwards…

  • Business leaders are done with David Seymours racist bullshit

    The reason for Seymour’s rating came through loud and clear in some savage commentary. “This divisive approach needs to end,” said one respondent, who believed he was “losing support from many of those who may have voted for him in his electorate”. A legal firm leader said “I worry they are not focusing on the biggest issues…
