And you accuse me of being absolutist, bit hypocritical of you

I don’t think you quite understand the term , where did I make an absolutist statement like you have ?

I usually qualify it, you don’t seem to .

Eugenius

Indeed.

Eugenius

Is there any chance you can take up fishing or restoring old cars or gardening or ultramarathons or all of these? Anything that will stop you stinking up threads will be fine. :lol: Good old Sonny "White Lives Matter" Blount. It was not me who introduced the racial bigotry. Nooooooo .. never . Just...

Aren't most mass shootings in the US done by home grown wacko white boys? Why not jump to that conclusion in this case? Or you know, wait for the facts before making an arse out of yourself. Well, because the majority of mass shootings in the US are carried out by Black Americans for one. Absolute ...

Eugenius

Frankly many in here regard you are abit of a‘nutter’ .

Go figure .

Eugenius

Don’t worry , I highly doubt you’ve been quite as censored .

Eugenius

I strongly disagree with this. Some cultures, dynasties, social constructs, political and economic systems, call, them what you will, tend to lend themselves to crueller behaviours towards our fellows. However, we are not inherently savages, noble or otherwise. There are plenty of examples of human...

This is all getting slightly weird .

Eugenius

Yeah I think that you’re right unfortunately.

Eugenius

I thought National wants us to be aspirational ?

Obviously not that way , too ‘unrealistic’ and utopian.

Eugenius

Poor bastard , was he the one that attempted to hit the attacker with a bollard ?

Eugenius

While you are correct in a lot of what you say, the graphic in question presents the ideal, not the reality . We are however inherently savages, there is no escaping that sad reality, how else can you explain all the shit stuff happening around the world. You don’t say . Jesus Jammy - :roll: Yes I ...

Eugenius

Just calling it what it is, human nature does not allow for that kind of aspiration to flourish, otherwise it would have. You like to live in a fantasy world I am happy to deal with reality. I strongly disagree with this. Some cultures, dynasties, social constructs, political and economic systems, ...

Eugenius

Your argument was extremely absolute and that is obviously what I was responding to . You’ve argued that anything but self interest and exploitation doesn’t exist with in ‘human nature’ , I disagree . Obviously I think you understand gritty , that’s why I was prodding . You think it’s fantasy land d...

This bloke clearly believes he’s in an intellectual position to patronise everyone from .

Eugenius

It doesn’t .

But remember this is a bloke that insists that there’s no such thing as society .

Eugenius

He’s had a lot of help, much of which was rejected .

But his violent upbringing doesn’t excuse his violent temper , at a certain point it does come down to character . He wasn’t mentally ill , so it really does come back to him .

Yet you live in Merivale why not Linwood? I don’t live in Merivale , I live in the central city. And hypocritically* I prefer a level of comfort compared to when I did live in Linwood let alone when was homeless whilst in Sydney . I remember you posting a picture of a house you were thinking of buy...

Eugenius

Not nearly .

It’s a bare C pass , you should meet some of the people I have . Phenomenal human beings.

Not zealots either just good people who are fun to be around , I wish I were 1/2 as kind .

And some of those helping others are extremely successful, whether materially or practically. Piss off Sonny . I’m not arguing that some not need to succeed do that others might have a chance , I’m arguing that it’s not Utopian to care for others . As a social Democrat I really don’t see the contra...

Eugenius

Certainly its ideology is more ‘caring’ and was intended by Christian capitalists to be a more ‘realistic’ attempt at socialism. I do active works - that what makes me more ‘caring’ whatever the hell that means , that satisfies what passes as my personal ideology. 10’s of thousands are far more dedi...

It’s aspirational surely , always with the absolutism you . Just calling it what it is, human nature does not allow for that kind of aspiration to flourish, otherwise it would have.

It’s hard to not see this as a deliberate act to escalate by Israel .

Netanyahu’s survival extended but at what cost .

Eugenius

Not ya mum - just most that hook up with a businessman.

It’s like the subject that private school girls take when not overly ambitious for anything but marriage.

I dumped it pretty quick and did history, it doesn’t help much.

Eugenius

Lots of people change their political views either through a new focus or influence of changing values and priorities . I’m not sure University study had much to do with it . The worse Righties in my family were my uncle Alan ( BNZ ) and now brother in law . Ghastly unfeeling dishonest and completel...

Eugenius

I don’t think she’ll give a shit frankly , psychiatrists tend to be able to say pretty much anything .

( worse, people believe them )

I imagine the union meeting with the new minister is going to be an absolute doozie this year .

No lessons learned? A West Australian former reporter now working for the United Nations Children’s Fund is lucky to be alive after being shot at in Gaza.

Eugenius

Luxons corporate jargon rightly irritates those with a decent arts education , they have been trained to seek out and reject specious argument and nonsensical gibberish. I expect there may be plenty of coffee being sputtered at monitors and phones over the concept of a “decent arts education” but I...

Well done Tahs - deserved .
I have no confidence in any of the Saders hookers. Core skills are wank.

Taylor’s fine .

Bells getting there .

Eugenius

I still maintain that the majority of reporters and such are left leaning, you have done nothing to persuade me otherwise, apart from asking me who owns the newspapers, which actually answers nothing. I have, however said that the audience is also biased, as you show every time you post, so our per...

On the journalists swallowing their bias and doing the job. I think the perfect example is Hosking, every election there was a storm about him hosting debates, and every year he was absolutely fine and shelved his ZB shock persona Good example , can’t stand the guy but he always did a bang up job .

Eugenius

No idea, are they the ones going out of business? I thought we were discussing Newshub being pulled Media !! You were insisting that A - it was leftist biased. B - that journalist just by the nature ‘of the profession’ are left orientated . Utter poohs and nonsense bordering on the paranoid . I sti...

OJ is historic, he proved that in America not just the white and rich escape justice, but the black and rich can to. A seminal moment in US race relations.

Especially if you only hang with rich whites .

“TVNZ, Newshub and RNZ were all sycophants, fawning over Jacinda et al, who do you think was responsible for the creation of Ja,Cindy mania.“ That’s utter nonsense, in fact all three networks were just as aggressive going after labour especially after Covid as they have been National .
