To the pussies who want change

Look, I've been through the mill regarding activism: I literally had a series of sit-down meetings with psychologists this year where they told me to give up all my shtick, and I persevered to the point that they're willing to let me continue. The new government might be like teflon re: the media, but that (to me) seems like a sign that if we step up our game and really push them from the activist space that we might be able to crack their facades and get some honest answers. It's fine to bitch and moan behind people's backs in hate huis, but it's far more fun and rewarding to go to their place of business and heckle them.✊ - The key rule is non-violent, and I'd also suggest that vandalism isn't an ideal method, as these are the parties of the landlords. 😂 However, I think that aggression and strong slogans is very much a good vibe for challenging those ignorant people and their ideas, alongside old-fashioned things like submitting to select committee and signing petitions. - I could potentially make a bundle of money by agreeing to do a feel-good TV show, but to me that feels like something that would pacify people rather than inspiring them the way that my Facebook Ads apparently have. I look at my view-counts, and it generally makes me think that I'm not well-known in NZ (despite popularity in the Pacific), but I suppose that the cumulative effect of all my Ads has probably made an impact.
