He is an absolute piece of shit, and yet undeniably good at talking for an hour and saying less than nothing
You make some good points, my comment was originally 3x longer at first but I cut it down in the interest of not rehashing 185 years of history
Hilarious that I, in NZ, can’t see this!
Splenetic@lemm.eeto pics@lemmy.world•My last view yesterday of the US; one-way ticket.19·6 months agoRe NZ politics - Yes and no.
The currect situation is due to some very specific circumstances thst emerged in the chaos of the last 10 years.
-
The centre left Labour Party & PM were hugely popular during covid & won an unheard of majority (normally our electoral system requires a coalition). A swing back to the centre-right was inevitable.
-
The centre right National party, usually our most popular party, had their leadership retire & endured years of in-fighting that made them unelectable
-
Because of this, they’ve bled a lot of voters to the “libertarian” & “centrist” parties (ACT & NZ First)
-
Also because of this, the current National Party leader is rather inexperienced & has given up some things in the coalition agreements that are more extreme than the public likes leading to record breaking protests.
-
The “centrist” party leader (Winston Peters) is a whole thing that I can’t neatly summarize, but imagine a political party designed to cater exclusively to the oldest & dumbest 5% of voters run by that Monorail guy from The Simpsons
In summary, less a slide right & more a correction back to status quo + a few unpopular chaos agents

Splenetic@lemm.eeto Games@lemmy.world•The Weekly 'What are you playing?' DiscussionEnglish2·2 years agoYeah I’ve slowly managed to put it together now, I’m glad I pushed through that initial confusion. It’s fun, though I liked Dishonored more
Splenetic@lemm.eeto Games@lemmy.world•The Weekly 'What are you playing?' DiscussionEnglish2·2 years agoI just started this as well… i was so lost forthe first few hours, not the controls, just what am I meant to be doing? I have 2 mission logs, I don’t know what any of the guns or powers do and I’m meant to start collecting them?
I suppose I think of it in similar terms as “is this a simulation” - which is to say, yeah, could be, but it’s a simulation where I have to feed my kids so i’ll think about it on the train.
