Should be the end of his political career. It won’t be though.

What an absolute legend. Give him a medal.

And Hamas are miserable anti-Semitic goons that are an armed minority and do not represent the interests of most Palestinians.

Interestingly the phrase was originally used by Likud in 1977 in an election charter: “between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty”. If this phrase is a call to genocide the knife cuts both ways.

It’s a cool name, but I agree its too long for a street. Would make a good name for a park or a reserve or something in the area. To me an ideal street name is around 2 or 3 syllables. “Acacia” is a pretty crap name too though, better to pick something with a connection to the land and the people.

They mention they’re arranging a hui so hopefully a decent compromise can come from that.

If you’re getting that worked up about mild non-offensive inane comments I hate to imagine how worked up you get using a self-checkout machine. Chill out.

Such a great policy for so many reasons. Equitable access to dental care for everyone leads to significantly improved health outcomes overall.

I'm in the keep cats indoors camp. Cats live longer, healthier, happier lives if they're kept indoors. We expect other animals to be kept confined to their owner's property (dogs, cows, sheep, lizards, birds, etc) so I don't see why that expectation should not extend to cats.

Given the enormous damage they do to our native ecosystem I think it makes sense. Feral cats are a pest and currently eradication efforts are hampered because we have to take measures we aren't indiscriminately killing pet cats along with the feral ones. If all pet cats could be expected to remain under owner's control, then the options for eradicating the pests go up a lot.

First step though is to require cats to be micro-chipped and registered, just like dogs are.

Mediawatch is probably the single most important current events show in NZ.

Good lord, you may have just changed my life.

Interesting implementation. Not sure if its a good thing or a bad thing that it puts the “I’m a bot” message at the start of the post. It means all the posts look the same when scrolling a feed, but they are also clearly marked as bot content.

Personally I won’t be using that particular community - I’d rather foster organic content that is native to lemmy. Some of the larger Mastodon instances (including the .nz one) ban autobot-posting such as this because it actually decreases engagement.

How can one person do so much damage to a company in such a short amount of time? It’s incredible.

He must be spending heaps of time here to learn how to hold it that long.
