Check it out… “Lighting a candle for every being on both sides, caught up in the monstrous happenings in Ukraine.

” I’d convert to whatever denomination of Christianity the person constructing the pyre demands”
By NZB3
Damien Grant the Libertarian writer for Stuff news is very sharp and I like him better every time he writes. He is backing up the analysis of Anarchist Libertarian Rodney Hide in judging that the Freedom Protest has the winning hand. Rodney went further saying it’s not a protest at all but a revolt, a […]

Mr Luxon, Mr Luxon, Mr Luxon
By NZB3
Barry Brill, the ex-parliamentarian, has an unusual loyalty to his old brand to think it’s not too late to reset it to defaults and make National 6.0 like National 3.0! He’s talking to New Zealand but can’t help making his old party, National, the locus of his attention and its leader in particular. “Just recently, […]

How can she Flip now?
By NZB3
We have a Game Theory problem now. The Prime Minister can’t perform The Flip (ie back down on exercising extraordinary powers for 2 years+) without appearing to concede to people power. It will look as if the people rule the Prime Minister rather than the Prime Minister ruling the people. I know! She can’t have […]

X Must Go
By NZB3
Meet the New Boss same as the Old Boss. Same as the Next Boss. Over and over. I don’t buy these hats or support these causes. It’s too narrow. It is The State that needs to go not any one of its changing faces. Post syndicated from http://NZB3.anarkiwi.co.nz/2022/02/26/x-must-go/.

Maori Ranidaphobia
By Anarchist History of New Zealand
Ranidaphobia (fear of frogs) (by which I mean Frenchmen) is often claimed about Musket Wars era Maoris. It is also said to be a Push Factor in why many Maori tribes subscribed to the Treaty of Waitangi. But what’s the evidence for this oft repeated claim? South Island Maoris were friends and partners of the […]
