@thatsKAIZEN The British Emp couldn’t abolish it in all its colonies - NZ Māoris held onto theirs until 1870. Taxpayers here in 2021 had to pay the descendants of slaves held by Maori $18m for not freeing them from Māori earlier. Go figure!
@TaraBull That happened to me 1 yr - actually felt physically sick, watching the excitement of my boys & husband open their presents, realising there was nothing for me, from anyone. They had ‘forgotten’. Not happened again but the wound never healed.
@melinastapes Homophobia was the furthest thing from my mind when I watched that episode - it was just bad! And for goodness sakes, there’s another gay character in Stranger Things along with him always being gay from the beginning - it’s got nothing to do with homophobia!
@miwiseven That’s just silly saying the review bombing was because of homophobia - there’s been a gay character, Robin, in it since season 3 and he’s been gay all along. It was just a bad episode.
@punishablepress Don’t get it - they’d already ticked all the boxes to keep DEI happy and they already had a lesbian white female …. shouldn’t the next box ticking exercise have been turning a black male character into a trans woman?
@TRobinsonNewEra So, it’s now ok for a man to rape a child or woman in Sweden, as long as he violates her what? Over less than 30 secs or only enters a couple of times? What a vile and disgusting legal system. God help the women of Sweden.
@centrist_nz I am 100% Kiwi, unlike this woman who is as born in Oz to an Aussie father. I had a child in Oz to my Aussie husband, then moved back home. I had to go through the normal application to get our son his NZ citizenship by descent. She is not an NZ citizen, nor is her US born child.
@aniobrien I think the main driver is money - he was rating less than Colbert, who was losing money big time too. Didn’t help that what Kimmel said was an outright lie. Plus, it wasn’t the govt who suspended him - it was the broadcast company.
@marycatedelvey Was it really only over what she said? I don’t think so. It’s what many people are finding out now ….. the people celebrating what happened to Charlie Kirk are displaying pure evil, and who wants to work or associate with evil?
@freedomgirlnz@NewsTalk lol he’s close with the disinformation about Biden and Covid? You mean, what was labelled as disinformation, but has been shown to actually have been the truth?
@bobmccoskrienz So, they’re going to recognise a Palestinian state? One which doesn’t & has never existed, has no geographical borders & is led by a proscribed terrorist movement which has/is committing atrocities on its own, Israelis, & people around the world?
