Milk is one ingredient. The oat drink is thirteen.

Butter is one ingredient. The spread is a lab report.

Cream is one ingredient. The plant creamer is a solvent-extracted emulsion.

Cheese is nearly one ingredient. The plant slice is a starch experiment with a colour added.

An egg is one ingredient. The plant egg is a bottle with a patent number.

The natural food is a single line on the label. The substitute pretending to be natural is a paragraph.

They sold the plant version as the clean, simple, wholesome choice, and it is the only one of the two that needs a factory, a solvent and a patent to exist at all.

The cow makes milk. The oat needs a recipe.

@maria43110357 The loudest activists do seem to possess the remarkable confidence that comes from never having had to do the job.

@KP24 Looks an awful lot like what Canada did with Carney.

They also had to give him a seat at the 11th hour to replace Trudeau. Welcome to modern leftist fuckery. 🤣

If I hand my friend heroin and tell him it’s insulin, and he dies, I’m going to prison. 🚔

The court won’t care what I called it.

The court will care what it was.

The court will care whether I misrepresented the product.

The court will care whether my friend gave informed consent based on truthful information.

Now compare that to COVID.

If an ordinary citizen misrepresents a substance and someone is harmed, there can be criminal charges, civil lawsuits, financial liability, and public outrage.

But when pharmaceutical companies told the public they were receiving a “vaccine” while simultaneously discussing mRNA technology in gene therapy terms, disclosing gene-therapy classification risks to investors, and using technology that delivers genetic instructions into human cells, the public was expected to simply trust the label.

And when people were injured?

No criminal charges.

No accountability.

No jury trials.

No discovery.

No ability to sue in civil court because of PREP Act immunity.

No compensation through the CICP for the overwhelming majority of injured people.

In fact, many vaccine-injured Americans can’t even get their day in court.

Think about how insane that is.

If I deceive one person about what’s in a syringe, I can lose my freedom.

If a trillion-dollar industry misrepresents information to millions of people, those harmed are often denied both criminal accountability AND civil recourse.

One standard for ordinary Americans.

Another standard for the most powerful corporations on Earth.

Whether you’re pro-vaccine, anti-vaccine, or somewhere in between, everyone should agree on one thing:

No informed consent exists without truthful information. And no justice exists when those who are harmed are denied any meaningful path to accountability.

Henry Nowak: How Anti-Racism Gave You Racism

[Pocohauntus 🇳🇿🇫🇯 @RBChrist_70]

@SCSblahblahblah @iamrodneysmith @WhiteHouse Perhaps someone has never done an act of kindness for you, for free? Genuine question.

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

I will take absolutely no lectures about "divisiveness" from the people who gave us two-tier policing, racial hiring quotas and endless race-baiting.

Unlike you, we do not kneel.

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.

George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.

Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.

And we all know why.

During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.

They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.

And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.

This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.

This needs to stop.

@MRobertsQLD The whole climate scam becomes obvious when you look at the amount of water and energy needed for data centres being proposed by the same lying governments telling us to conserve energy. Climate taxation is fraud.

[Ani O'Brien @aniobrien]

Apparently, job losses are only a national tragedy when they happen to people with university degrees.

Over the past decade, New Zealand has lost:

• Around 300 direct jobs at Marsden Point when our only oil refinery closed. Local leaders estimate including contractors and supply-chain businesses, the loss was well over 1,000 jobs.

• Around 120 direct jobs when the Holcim cement plant at Westport shut down, with significant flow-on effects for contractors, transport operators, and the coal industry that supplied it.

• Around 230 direct jobs when Winstone Pulp closed its Karioi pulp mill and Tangiwai sawmill, along with many forestry, harvesting, engineering, and transport jobs that depended on those operations.

• Around 230 direct jobs at Kinleith Mill when paper production was shut down, affecting contractors and suppliers throughout Tokoroa and the wider forestry sector.

• Around 175-230 direct jobs when the Whakatāne paper mill collapsed, plus the contractors, trucking companies, maintenance firms, and local businesses that relied on it.

• Around 300 direct jobs when the Waimate Meat Company closed, with major impacts on livestock transport, contractors, and local service businesses.

• Between 1,500 and 2,000 direct jobs across the coal sector following the collapse of Solid Energy and the decline of mining operations, alongside hundreds of contractor jobs in engineering, maintenance, transport, and support services.

All up, that's around 3,000–4,000 direct blue collar jobs gone. Once you include contractors, suppliers, transport firms, engineers, maintenance crews, and the businesses that depended on those workers spending money in their communities, the true impact was likely somewhere between 6,000 and 10,000 jobs.

Thousands lost their livelihoods. Sure there were a few stories, but they often emphasised how necessary it was for the environment or some other cause.

In many cases, the same people now lamenting public sector redundancies were actively cheering these closures on. We were told they were necessary. A transition away from unethical or dirty sectors. Progress. The price of climate action.

Workers were told to retrain. Learn how to code!!! "You just need to adapt!"

Now the cuts have reached Wellington and suddenly every redundancy is treated as a national emergency.

The same people who told coal miners, refinery workers, and mill workers to embrace change are now horrified that policy analysts, communications advisors, and bureaucrats might have to do the same.

Losing your job is hard regardless of who you are. A miner's mortgage matters just as much as a social media manager's mortgage. A forestry worker's family matters just as much as a policy advisor's family.

But the reaction over the past decade suggests many people in our political and media class don't actually believe that. To them, a blue collar worker losing their job was economic progress and necessary climate action.

A public servant losing theirs is a humanitarian crisis.
It seems that job losses only become a national conversation when they happen to people with the power to dominate the conversation.

So apparently Jill and I are on a plane to China with Trump, Elon Musk, half the Cabinet, and a collection of CEOs whose combined net worth could probably refinance the moon.

Totally normal day for Gen X.

And I just can’t stop laughing at how the media spent YEARS telling us:

- China hated Elon
- Trump was “finished”
- America was collapsing
- capitalism was dead
- and everybody important was abandoning the U.S.

Meanwhile, here we are somewhere over the Pacific looking like the cast of Succession meets Top Gun: Retirement Plan Edition.

Remember when China sanctioned Marco Rubio back in 2020 and everybody acted like the geopolitical chessboard had permanently shifted?

Now suddenly everybody’s still showing up to the table because — shocking development — nations tend to like:

- money
- technology
- manufacturing
- trade
- AI
- energy
- semiconductors
- and not being economically irrelevant

Who knew.

The best part is the internet meltdown cycle never changes.

Trump:
“America needs stronger trade relationships.”

Media:
“HITLER.”

Elon:
“I make electric cars, rockets, satellites, AI, and robots.”

Internet activists:
“Yeah but we posted an angry hashtag.”

Cool.
I’m sure Beijing is trembling before your TikTok resistance movement.

And flying with this group is exactly what you think it would be.

Trump walks around the cabin narrating reality like it’s an episode of Lifestyles of the Rich and Geopolitical:
“Great flight. Powerful people. Very high IQ. The Chinese are saying they’ve never seen anything like it.”

Elon looks like he hasn’t slept since 2019 and is simultaneously calculating orbital trajectories and wondering if the beverage cart could be automated.

Meanwhile Jill and I are sitting there like two exhausted Gen Xers who survived dial-up internet, chain-smoking restaurants, lawn darts, and drinking from garden hoses… wondering how in the hell we became side characters in the weirdest timeline imaginable.

Honestly, at this point if Trump walked into Beijing blasting “Danger Zone” while Elon live-streamed it from orbit, I wouldn’t even blink.

Because the people who told us America was over are still tweeting from iPhones, driving Teslas, using Starlink during hurricanes, and cashing checks tied to the same capitalist machine they claim to hate.

Gen X translation:
The world’s still running.
The adults are still making deals.

And the internet is still confusing hashtags for accomplishments.

Carry on.
