1973: Our Big Norm

By Anarchist History of New Zealand

This 1973 musical comedy poke at the Prime Minister Norman Kirk was converted into a tribute anthem when the big man died. Like Springsteen’s ‘Born in the USA’ people hear the music and think it’s complimentary because they don’t listen. Had Kirk lived on, this song would have helped bring down his Labour 3.0 regime […]

The Young Perish, and the Old Linger

By VJM

In the Lord of the Rings trilogy, King Theoden uses the phrase “The young perish, and the old linger,” to describe the accursed state of his kingdom of Rohan. The phrase strikes a chord, because most people can intuitively understand that society ought to exist to further the young, and that the old ought to […]

By NZB3

Take the Anarkiwi pill! You think like this, it’s already too late…. “I really wish we had a government I could be proud of and serve! It’s not that I have a problem with any authority, but more the fact I’ll never bow to a socialist like Jacinda Arden.” “There are however a few men […]

1974: Kirk Out

By Anarchist History of New Zealand

Prime Minister, Norman Kirk, ran his body into the ground and died today in New Zealand history; 31 August, 1974. Every politician is a sociopath, every Government a Mafia racket. Kirk’s short lived Labour 3.0 clothed itself in people-pleasing camouflage like The Ohu Scheme and I Care Year. Behind the scenes Kirk and his people were, […]

Socialism and Capitalism

By NZB3

Socialism and Capitalism. Or, r vs K selection. It’s a bit of a sea-saw in that Socialism stops shooting when he’s about to fall and opens fire again when the bleeding stops enough to steady the plank. Over and over.

1974: I Care

By Anarchist History of New Zealand

New Zealanders living through the Feels vs. Reals cultural contests of our own times can easily relate to this drippy bullshit from Labour 3.0 back in 1974…. “Where’s the end to all our talking? So intellectual with our airs and….things. You know what’s wrong? We’ve been talking far too long! When all we mean to […]

By NZB3

The Victimhood Culture quest for new things to be offended about goes ever deeper into uncharted territory. Now they’re so hungry for new food they’re reforming New Zealand Sign Language to be more PC! As it turns out, it’s a rich vein of delightfully non-Politically Correct discourse to tap too. You can see for yourself […]
