Ahhh… yeah, I’ll take her as finance minister. We’ve tried neoliberals for decades. They suck and they caused the problems we have.

Call me whatever you want, but I believe a society's goal should be to secure the highest quality of life and happiness for its citizens, not to endlessly generate capital for the ownership class at everyone else's expense.

Nick Mowbray dropped half a million on National & ACT in an attempt to buy this election & now he wants to change MMP because the two major parties are failing. These people will always weaponise their wealth to maintain power & control.

Radio Watermelon spaces are possibly the only place on the internet where you can listen live to ordinary Palestinians in Gaza talking about their lives under genocide. Tune in on Wednesday! And make sure to follow @RadioWatermelon

Great, the elections in the terrorist zionist state are over. If you think that brings any positive lasting change for the Palestinians then you are mistaken. Come and listen to families in Gaza and hear for yourselves if they are more optimistic because of the election results. See you on Wednesday. nitter.cf/i/spaces/1AKEmvEXRZvKL

I'm just glad I don't live in a dictatorship but a free democracy where every few years I can vote for a different banker or lawyer or landlord that represents the vast network of powerful corporate interests that controls every aspect of my life from cradle to grave

It’s disgusting how willing the National Party and its allies are to lie to the public in order to win the election. They know they’re unpopular and can’t win on policy, so they’re reverting to scare mongering. And people wonder why the public are losing faith in democracy!

I'm in my 40s. I'm a lawyer. My wife is a lawyer. We both work full time. We cannot afford the house my parents purchased on a single electrician's income in their 30s. We cannot afford the house my immigrant grandparents purchased on a single MTA bus driver's salary in their 30s. They had SIX CHILDREN. For 30 years, politicians in Washington & their oligarch allies convinced regular people that this was just about avocado toast and fancy coffee. In reality, this is end-stage capitalism. Everyone is stuck in place. It's impossible to buy a home. It's too costly to move. We work too much to have passion projects. We don't have enough savings to start our own businesses. We can't afford to go without healthcare to do it. Thanks for writing this article @troy_closson. Would be very happy to discuss further. nytimes.com/2026/10/25/nyreg…
Can’t Afford a Home. Can’t Afford a Baby. Can’t Afford Life. This is 30.

Can’t Afford a Home. Can’t Afford a Baby. Can’t Afford Life. This is 30.

They’re trying to build middle-class lives in New York. But many 30-year-olds in the city feel worse off than their parents. Is it average adult angst? Or something more enduring?

Great news out of Brazil if you love vibrant forests alive with the sounds of Jaguars and Howler Monkeys. Terrible news out of Brazil if you love the felling of trees and coal plants belching acrid smoke into the sky.

“Honey we can’t buy eggs, we have to set aside $7 to bomb the kids in Gaza. Remember?” Abdul El-Sayed is absolutely crushing it. This is the most brilliant ad of all time 👏🏼

Nobody wants to work anymore because the reward is gone. Half of us are living paycheck to paycheck, with no savings for retirement or a house. Two paychecks away from homelessness. This is not laziness, it is pure exhaustion.

If these were 400 Jewish families ordered by ANYONE to leave their homes, it would be THE BIGGEST HEADLINE IN THE WORLD.

The Israeli army has ordered more than 400 Palestinian families to evacuate their homes in Hebron, leaving thousands of people stranded in the streets with nowhere to go.

Good job that Covid 19 didn't happen under this current right wing rabble of a so-called govt who have complete contempt for human life, or the same thing would have happened here. But yeah, keep on complaining about Jacinda keeping your grandma and grandad alive... 🙄 #nzpol
