New Zealand’s next Prime Minister will be Judith Collins and National (version 6.0) will for our Executive Government for the remainder of the 2020s. “Unless Labour grow a strategic brain (slim chance, […]

Cultural Appropriation
By NZB3
Cultural Appropriation is the concern of people who are of Western culture on behalf of others who are not. This is inauthentic. They severed their roots and made a fake cult culture that itches them. Rather than come to terms with this they psychologically project onto others for being the appropriators and thieves.

On 13th April, 1896, The National Council of Women was founded and meet in Christchurch. Well known suffragette Kate Sheppard was elected as its first President.

“Is this a COVID election?”
By NZB3
The battle lines are drawn between two narratives for New Zealand’s 2020 General Election. They could change, and that would be less boring, but I think these two competing scripts are here to stay now. It will come down to which story the voters believe. Is it National’s story about who they are and who […]

Kindergarten Cop Cancel
By NZB3
Film Kindergarten Cop (1990) banned by in USA from Portland screening… The State has a long tradition of making movies to lie to the population about its broken Education System. The truth is that they are dysfunctional and broken just like the rest of our Socialist/”Mixed” economy and in direct proportion to Government interference. Currently […]
