Todays rant - right wing BS - ACT

Posted by on
ACT is NZs most liberal party and shares its most right wing status with NZ First.

It wants neo liberalism on steroids. More privatisation and less government regulation. You know all the things thats made economies worse under neo liberalism.

But they cant say that and have to use emotive flowery stories rather than fact to sway people into more bad ides.

As this is about lies and misleading and bad rhetoric its about the main players in ACT party

Seyour is wrongly described in wikipedia as a libertarian . Seymour is not a libertarian hes a neo-liberal . Libertarian means anarchist and has been incorrectly co-opted by USA because it cant distinguish between its 2 right wing neo liberal political parties so co-opted the term libertarian. here in wiki.

Ive described why hes wrong on his Treaty Principals Bill separately here .

Lets look at this video Labour have moved radically left

This is what i detest about these lying right wing pricks esp ACT and NZ First
@9m15s - taxing wealth in capital is couched as "your problems are the success of others and they are ill gotten gains and the system must be torn down and its not evolutionary but revolutionary" - This is right wing rhetoric and lies that are emotional populist garbage designed to appeal to the ignorant and stupid.

Its not surprising studys show those on the right have lower emotional intelligence and its appealing to this.
Taxing capital is good . Its just not good for rich people . He can disagree and honestly argue that taxing capital is bad but hes not. He uses vague fear mongering narratives that arent factual or can be debated but are just BULLSHIT . I would be happy if Labour and greens are socialist but they are not - Socialists would tear down the capitalism to make an economy that is commonly owned - but Labour and Greens only want to reform capitalism . Neither party have the common ownership of the means of production distribution and exchange in their constitution as a goal.

Yes the socialists are radical as thats part how the left are defined -radical and progressive and the more left are revolutionary- but NZ Labour party isnt radical or progressive . The Greens certainly arent radical. Just as Bernie Sanders who called himself a socialist, wasnt a socialist as he advocated no socialist policys but USA was too politically illiterate to recognise that.

Not even the most radical Karl Marx who described the rotten capitalist system (Seymour wants more of) did not describe it that way. He describe private property as power , that capitalists accumulated that wealth not because they were greedy but because they also were locked in a system of competition and survival just as much as the wage slave and had to compete to survive. It was neither a moral or emotional argument .


David Seymour's School Lunch Toxic Right Wing USA Conservative Rhetoric

It seems ACT leader David Seymour is adopting US right-wing derogatory rhetoric, a move previously associated more with NZ First.  Its a manipulation tactic. He's labelled aspects of the government school lunch program as "woke," which is a concerning turn.


Here Seymour and shyster Plunket goes on about woke food. pure usa toxic rightwing bs. Food cant be woke in it its original justice meaning .

Seymour on woke food  - for them woke means healthy food.


Act in Herald article here says,
"He also said young people are looking at the housing market and seeing “little hope” and wondering if they aren’t better off overseas”.  Many decide they are. Those who stay are infected by universities with the woke mind viruses of identity politics, Marxism, and post-modernism."

Problems with his Seymour's rhetoric;

  1. Misuse of terminology: Applying the term "woke" to food demonstrates a misunderstanding or intentional misuse of the term. Food simply isn't "woke."

  2. Lack of substantive critique: By relying on buzzwords, Seymour fails to provide a fact-based argument against the current lunch program.

  3. Potential for misleading rhetoric: This approach mirrors tactics used by right-wing groups in the US and NZ First, potentially manipulating public opinion without actually addressing any real issues.

Nutritional Concerns

The arguments not about health its about cost to taxpayers. Seymour has not provided what he said he would ie fruit and sandwich's.  Ironically, some of the alternatives proposed by Seymour are less healthy. With concerns about the quality of ingredients, particularly the use of non-organic chicken that  contain harmful additives.





I cant emphasis enough how bad it is Seymours using backward toxic language from the evil backwards usa empire .  Using woke to describe food he dislikes is further distorting and butchering the word woke so it becomes meaningless. As Yuval Harari says when you destroy truth the only government type left that can function is authoritarian dictatorship. Granted NZ isnt as bad as usa as we dont have a trump but its disgusting we have 2 right wing parties doing there best to create it.

Dont think liberalism (and capitalism) is designed for democracy either . It was practised under a chilean dictatoship before being forced on and unleashed on the world in 1979 uk , 1981 usa and 1984 NZ.

The irony of Seymour going to and benefiting from one of NZs best public schools (Auckland Boys Grammar) and wanting to tear down and privatise education.

Seymours politican talk and lies of Labour becoming radical, here . Labour was born from semi radical ideas of unions and socialists for the day introducing welfare and more universal public health care in the Social Security Act of 1938 in its first tern in government. Even if it Labour re nationalised electricity companies and others again it would still not be radical.

Richard Prebble , a ex LAbour MP that gave us rogernomics aka neo-liberalism , who co founded ACT party explains why he left the Waitangi Tribunal. Thats not the important part, skip to ignorant anti socialist bs at 2m50s .
Prebble explains how hes ignorant and stupid.

Im going to summarise 3 comments i made where Prebble either lies malevolently or hes an ignorant idiot

1) @2m50s Prebbles claims communist countrys killed millions and failed to bring equality .
Theres never been a communist country or state. Yes attempts at communism led to deaths so did creating capitalism . In fact capitalism killed more and took way way longer. 2) Communisms goal IS NOT equality its worker sovereignty and freedom from exploitation by capitalists "

3) @5min Prebble claims Maori were guaranteed property rights or citizenship -
WRONG - neither were in the Tiriti - Maori were guaranteed possession of their land and treasures
- Maori were guaranteed protection as Queens subjects
Rights and citizenship are a white mans coloniser liberal idea and require a govt/state to implement Maori were socialists and didnt have concept or action of property ownership.

These are both projections of ACTs liberal and neo-liberal agenda (along with Seymours treaty bill) onto the Te Tiriti o Waitangi

4) @ 5m15s Prebble claims waitangi tribunal decided there was a 2nd treaty. Theres always been a one treaty made up of 8 parts /separate documents - they were hand written blank copies later signed by different chiefs and others . Accept one part wasnt a copy of Maori ,it had a english translation - that part is not lawful - even thou used to justify british settler colonsation.
What maori have been saying at least since Hone Hekes rebellion of cutting down flag pole 180 yrs ago in 1845- is theres only one lawful treaty -te tirit o waitangi in maori , which over 500 chiefs and others signed, comprised of 7 parts which they never ceded sovereignty.
Maybe Prebbles just old and decrepit but i think its more hes a white settler coloniser with those white mans settler coloniser mindset that makes him lie .
This is exactly why we need education at high schools on political ideology and history including colonisation so voters and public can tell the factions from fiction of politicians esp the right wing.
