The US State Department just launched freedom . gov.
It’s a portal designed to smash through European censorship walls. Gives people in censored countries direct access to blocked American content.
Built-in VPN included to bypass local government firewalls. No more EU bureaucrats deciding what Europeans can see or say.
Trump admin is actively arming the world against speech tyrants.
This is next-level freedom fighting.
Independent thinking starts with curiosity, not blind agreement or blind rejection
Then we get this shit from our own government
The official New Zealand Parliament account has announced it will no longer be posting on X.
Why has such a significant and serious decision been made without consulting parliament?
This is how freedoms are lost – by unilateral decision making being made by moral virtue signalling – where someone seeks to do one thing but causes damage to other freedoms.
This platform is a mechanism for Parliament to communicate and update New Zealanders.
Neither the Clerk nor the Speakers Office are the moral compass for 123 MPs let alone 5.3 million New Zealanders.. Winston Peters
So like Free Speech Union, we should be ringing, e-mailing our concerns of the loss of democracy to our electorate and list MP’s of the National Party.
….. X has approximately 933,000 users in New Zealand, representing over 22% of adults.
New Zealand ranks first globally for average session time on the platform.
Parliament’s announcement follows Labour (last posted May 2025), the Greens (November 2024), and TVNZ, all of which have already left the platform.
“Parliament doesn’t belong to Parliamentary Service. It belongs to the public,” ….
….. Nearly a million New Zealanders use X. You don’t get to decide they do not matter because you dislike the platform or the owner. ….
…. “This move contradicts the institution’s obligation to remain accessible to the public on the platforms they actually use, ….
https://www.fsu.nz/blog/parliaments-withdrawal-from-x-abandons-nearly-one-million-new-zealanders-in-an-election-year
It is election year, so National members should feel the slip sliding away in the polls, like how they slip & slide our democracratic principles away.
As long as the slip sliding is in the direction of slipping from Green The partly maori Liebour and national towards ACT and NZ1st I am happy.
So many whether politicians or unelected back room techno-bureaucrats with no accountability, pay lipservice to the word “democracy” “freedom” “liberty”, …. while seeking to retain all the controls to their advantage in gaining further power & wealth.
From a thread on the Good Oil:—-
“Which social media site do they get that most coverage? So far I have discovered-
NZ Parliament has 37k followers on X,
27k followers on Facebook,
and 14.5k followers on Instagram.
Would love to know how many on Blue Sky and Tiktok?“
“One of the reasons cited for NZ Parliament’s exit from X was that data had shown online engagement with NZers had decreased compared with other platforms,
making the resource-intensive moderation no longer justifiable.“
“That is a rubbish reason. [^]
They have 35k followers, many of who would just read their post without commenting.
There are very few comments so require very little moderation anyway.
So, much easier to continue posting, disable comments and therefore no moderation needed.
EDIT Noticed they have done exact that on this announcement on X, blocked the ability to comment.“
“*we only want to post where we can track and ban you if you say something wrong“
To bear in mind that Ardern had arrangements via the Department of Internal Affairs, (DIA) to have access directly into facebook having its own portal terminal.
AI— …. Key Details on the “Direct Line”
Establishment: Following the March 15, 2019, attacks, Facebook provided a direct channel for the office of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern to flag content for removal. ……… Ongoing Monitoring:
The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC) in New Zealand maintains a role in social media monitoring and has engaged in “disinformation monitoring” initiatives. …..
Begs the question, what other social media is being monitored, and it seems that some of can easily read between the lines, by what is permitted to stay. 😏 🤔
Recall the time when about 15,000 comments were deleted one night on an Ardern’s post, & then another 15,000 deleted the next morning.
AI;— call its the high amount of abuse,.
While Adhern claimed the deletion was all Face book policy.
More than doubtful that Luxon or the DIA have changed anything !
Is it because Luxon & co following Australia, with its E’Safety Commissioner and then there is the EU attempts at controlling X so NZ is expected to fall into sync with them?
“Begs the question, what other social media is being monitored…”
Simpleton,
All the big media, news or social. How do you think they pulled off Covid theatre?
How do you think Labour is ahead in the polls? Social media influences people’s views, so they answer that way in the polls.
And it is all AI run, and AI moderated.
“Recall the time when about 15,000 comments were deleted one night on an Ardern’s post, & then another 15,000 deleted the next morning.
AI;— call its the high amount of abuse,.
While Adhern claimed the deletion was all Face book policy.”
Since Zuckerberg admitted publicly after Trump won, that he had been “pressured” to censor and skew the Covid response, the 2020 USA election, and Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Since he admitted to that, he has proven he can be bought, so you don’t have to guess that what Ardern did was censorship.
NZ is supposed to be an independent sovereign nation. Time we marched to our own tune. We would like to believe NZ people are not living under a dictatorship but the recent past and decisions like this X ban refutes that.
We need to have the conversation as to where Maori is in our land?
How much should we pay for it?
It’s not Maori land. Never was. The original landlords were Waitaha. The 1200 AD Maoris were the squatters here when Cook arrived.
Just checked and the Green Party is on BlueSky – obvious when you think of who they have in their party and the lack of any censorship on BlueSky when it comes to kinks (legal or illegal).
They have 853 followers and have made 52 posts over the last year – not really a social media success.
Labour Party has 209 followers, Hipkins has 2,500 but hasn’t posted for 4 months (might still be on holiday).
“(from Grok):
😃 😃 😁
“In other words, they know they can expect intelligent pushback on X,
so they’d rather post on FB where they can influence the low information (read “dumb”) voter.“
🤣
With some of the crap we see on Twitter, I doubt the intelligence bit.
All media suffer the same low intelligency.
The difference now is that Twitter has no bans or censoring,we are told, which also appears correct..
doesn’t make it more intelligent, nor does it make it community-minded.
Nor is it a friendly idea-sharing environment.
FB on the other hand is that and FB allows groups like the dalia growers to all join together as a communication group.
FB allows people to share events and instant happenings in the area, allowing immediate posting of events.
It’s also easy to use and offers the opportunity to advertise to the people you are interested in. Without that, Google would own all advertising as it used to.
Twitter is the world’s gossip column.
Both have a place.
Once you learn how to manage FB there’s lots to see and learn.
Twitter not so much..
Most social media is crap. AI fakes and stupid pranks. I have spent a few days scrolling through x and what have I learnt? Virtually fuckall. Same for facebook. Only positive I have noticed on Facebook is they allow push back on Climate Change and Vaccines. Only real use is to keep up with old friends overseas. As a source of anything of gravitas, forget it.
You need to learn how to use it. Their algorithm is very responsive to your choices.
Search for the subject you like, or even talk to your phone, and you will get more news etc.
“Their algorithm is very responsive to your choices.”
Horseshit. It is responsive within defined boundaries, within the allowed postings.
Your statement is could be compared to Truman Burbank saying he lives in a free world.
If Facebook/AI/etc were all free you would get truth not bullshit.
nope you get what’s out there.
AI needs boundaries and road map, and as Ed demonstrated the other day unless you are specific, it will just copy what’s out there.
yes they can decide what not to allow as they were caught doing and now the state is telling them once again about porn.
They are not free of the law or govt. rules
Unlike Twitter.
vikey the dinosaur still spruiking the dinosaur version of social media.
while i see your point about the group thing thats mainly an older person thing or for business.
most under 30s esp dont give a fuck about facebook and only reason they have it is cuz their parents/ grandparents demand they use it to contact and see what theyre up to. the younger generations dont want to read or see photos anymore, they communicate, advertise and live life via 5-30second clickbaity reels at a time.
x is 99% bullshit, fakenews, trolling and ragebait. just look at the utter junk posted here and muppets believe it even tho the source is just a rando on the internet. old farts used to facebook are very fucking gullable when using x, pretty much when i see an x post i know to take it with a grain of salt and check it out elsewhere to see if its legit or not.
telegram is same or worse than x but far more looney nutters posting outrageously dumb nutter bullshit, definately the tinfoil hat place of social media. if someones a regular user of telegram you know to write off most of the crap they spurt.
i think the best way to go is avoid all of the shit where possible, sure if youve got a business or something to sell then your fb has a limited purpose… x etc not so much
There is useful stuff on Telegram. Alternative views especially RT etc. Agree there is a load of crap too.
Telegram, incl all social media is tracked. If it is free, you and your data are the product. And it is being scraped by AI.
Well, they also don’t give a fuck about Twitter either. I work among them and instagramand wahts app are their thing.
It’s also been established that young people who grew up using screens in this generation also lack cognitive ability. study published this week.
Sadly you are well out of the real world lad.
im in the real world mate, sadly most are stuck in the fake narcisistic online world.
yea i seen that, theres been an iq drop due to screens, ai and reliance on tech… its been obvious for years.
….”an iq drop due to screens, ai and reliance on tech”…..
It goes much deeper than that. Technology was supposed to supplement learning processes rather than replace them. The long laborious years we sat at desks printing & writing with particular emphasis on spelling were in themselves pathways to developing our minds. To pass exams required writing at speed while remaining legible, learning involved sifting through screeds of garbage to locate facts rather than looking up bullet points. Even in the 60s the jury was out on whether slide rules could be used in mathematics tests. The process mattered because it was considered to be part of learning. Pressing the correct symbols on a calculator or computer in the correct order is now the skill most sought after.
You mentioned it yourself earlier this week. Dairy staff are hired because they can turn on a computer. They know little of mastitis & nothing of cycling. If the computer goes down the herd could die in front of them & all they could do is stand around texting photos of their breakfasts.
It’s not education & it’s not cognitive ability. It’s dumbing 95% of the population down to a level equalled by morons.
You should see what AI prompt engineers do, then. Get paid well for writing sensible, clear English language to optimise output.
Ironically, the ones I’ve seen have English as a second language.
It ain’t rocket science.
Most AI is now the equivalent of Skynet.
Less than 10% of any professional software project is coding. AI appeals to coders that don’t have standards, templates and libraries.
And to use AI you get connected to the AI Could where it hoovers up all your data.
It does not preserve 99% of your programming standards, rules and policies. It is writing code that people can’t read.
Only stupid people trust things they cannot verify.
Morning all, nice looking day up this way. I’m off to work which has to be a good sign for the economy. Don’t like the work but definitely like the money.
i dont miss grinding away working every day thats for sure.
ive gone from working 60-80hr weeks to less than 50hrs per month, life is grand at the moment and my body and mind needed the reset.
is business finally picking up for you T? or you gotta go catch up on boring bookwork
Definitely picking up but I’m told a lot of big investment decisions are on hold till after the election. Can’t work out why Luxon announced it so early, would have been better to hold back a while and laugh as Hipkins and Maiki Sherman go into conniptions about how mean and unfair he is.
I’m going to the beach. Might run into the Viking.
run?
Unlikely.
But My rellies might see you. I haven’t wised them up yet, but if you continue to harass the beach bunnies, I just might.
Founding fathers of your community.
you could compare budgies and budgie smugglers ya sick wrinkled old coots 🙂
If we believe Hunty, its not a budgie but a totem pole.
With notches in it!
Thats your thing.
trumps tariffs are in tatters, i guess the us economy will wobble a bit more as importers wait to see if they get refunded or not.
hilarious, all the hurt and uncertainty suffered at the start of the implementation was all for nothing, once the dust died down the tariff thing didnt seem so bad for america but now theres gunna be more drama and god knows what to come.
anyways for lil old nz we best just hope the american and global economy holds its shit together until november and trump dosent do anything too fucking stupid or else we 100% get labour lead govt.
A bit more on the tariff situation from Scott Bessent
Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent –
“Let’s be clear about what today’s ruling WAS and what it WASN’T. Despite the misplaced GLOATING from Democrats, ill-informed media outlets, and the very people who gutted our industrial base, the Court did not rule against President Trump’s tariffs.”
“Six justices simply ruled that IEEPA authorities cannot be used to raise even $1 of revenue.”
“This administration will invoke alternative legal authorities to replace the IEEPA tariffs.”
“We will be leveraging Section 232 and Section 301 tariff authorities that have been validated through thousands of legal challenges.”
“Treasury’s estimates show that the use of Section 122 authority, combined with potentially enhanced Section 232 and Section 301 tariffs, will result in virtually unchanged tariff revenue in 2026.”
Yet US markets are mostly up today. Hard to predict the outcomes.
gold n silver jumped a bit the minute it was announced, im guessing crypto moved too?
I heard about the Supreme Court decision on the radio earlier. They had a clip of Trump saying he was disappointed but there were other options in the decision that the Court said were OK but were much stronger than the reciprocal tariffs. So it looks like it is wait and see.
Here’s one for SB.
Cattle farming
https://www.facebook.com/reel/25719725354395326
interesting, so like halter but a few extra things.
would suit large dry areas like aussie and parts of america but it would be useless here 60% of the time… plus it aint gunna fix your water trough, feed out hay, drench or load the truck.
while tech may cut the odd labour unit here and there its no silver bullet and can never replace humans entirely.
The system still has fences, from what I can see, so halter is better(and more expensive).
I remember reading, a few years ago, of a farmer down south who did his lambing beat with a drone set up by his kid. The system on the FB link is quite a few steps up from that.
yea that was gardynes they live not far from here.
a local here is disabled (lost a leg) he got a job on a station doing lambing beat via drone. hes about to buy big spray/fert drone and go into business.

That’s enough facebook for you. Stop sucking Zuckerberg’s dick and get back to work. Those curtains won’t clean themselves.
You won’t find the stories anywhere else, so be a good lad, grow up and learn to use all the tools life provides you.
There’s oppourtunities there just waiting for you to feed yourself a decent meal if only you’re tried.
So where does facebook get those stories from? From people posting them from other sources. Zuckerturd’s minions don’t do original research.
get ya head around it.
FB is the world’s people, people like you and everyone else who can post anything they see, hear, know or would like you to know.
Much like Utube except YouTube tends to be videos from much the same sorts of people.
Not everyone has a utbe channel, and most likely don’t want one.
You can view videos on all kinds of subjects, and FB does the same, but also has an algorithm that sends you things you might like to see.
Then of course you have Messenger, WhatsApp and instagram and probably other stuff.
There is also the Market Place.
Now, if you have never been there, you haven’t lived.
Shit all over that other outfit that has become expensive to use. TM
Buy & sell. You want to sell artwork, there ya go. You have a worldwide audience. How could that be bad? Try doing that on TM or on Sunday at the local market.
If you are selling into the household market, there’s nothing better.
Forget about the old advertising media, all it’s good for these days is making fancy picks for buses.
Google used to rule the internet in website and information search, but FB was growing all the time.
Google will soon be overtaken in search by AI search
Google will soon be overtaken in search by AI search.
What exactly do you think facebook google et all use as their search engines? Mice on treadmills?
It is all AI, has been for 20+ years. Search algorithms are run by AI.
Google will soon be overtaken in search by AI search.
So instead of telling you what they want you to see, it advances to the next stage of telling you what you need to think.
Then all of you who are plugged into social media, become the Dr Who Cybermen.
Have the events of the last 9 years not taught you anything?
I guess you think you know it all. then.
No Viking I do not know it all. I wish I did. But I have certainty on what I research and know.
I never joined Facebook. I created an account for a week or two when it started and with monitoring caught it hoovering up my contact lists.
I don’t use the Cloud, not even for email. I’ve paid a fortune to stay out of the Cloud, and build non Cloud technology for clients. The Cloud is someone else’s computer.
Putting my data on someone’s else’s computer is about as palatable as having wife/girlfriend sleep in some other guy’s bed.
Or sending your children to live at someone else’s hostel run by the Clintons or Epstein/Maxwell.
I called it a fake pandemic early on. I called the vaccines snake oil very early on.
I called it a plot to steal the 2020 NZ election back in 2019 after Robertson starting heavily borrowing money with no budget “for a once in a generation opportunity”.
There’s ya prblem then.
You are about as dumb as naaksa.
If you think for one moment that you have escaped, then you are totally deluded.
Do you a drivers liscence? That has your photo.
Do you a passport?.That has another one.
Do you fill in an IRD form of anykind? they have you by the short and curlies.
Were you even born, married and yet to be dispatched?
Did you go to school or Uni?
The list is long.
They know it all.
What you have to do is remember that they do.
And they will know all the stuff you try to hide.
Other than living in a tent out in the forest and never coming out ya tabbed.
Even then, they will see you.
Doc is now running drones with systems that identify every tree and they can spray each individual tree.BIL builds the gear for them.
So judging todays FB on a week’s trial 30 years ago is rather pathetic.
Its head up your arse stuff.
And you were not the only one to call out the pandemic or the vacines. I had good reason the do that and did.
Funnily enough, you had to search someone else’s computer to find all that, just as you do each day.
If you think a VPN keeps your name out, then another surprise for you.
However, you can use Mozilla, which now has an extension that masks your search.
I do not use outbound VPNs for browsing. They offer zero protection.
I do use VPNs they my team set up to give point to point or mobile to business VPN’s for remote connections.
you conflate many things vikey, i dont actually think you know what youre talking about. a lil tiny bit of knowledge and you think you know it all. you use it to make yourself sound/appear smarter than you actually are… but you fail.
its ok to not know everything, its ok to be dumb at some stuff. better that than make an arse of yourself 🙂
aw gawd, dont burst vikeys precious lil bubble. the poor guys whole world will crash down if he realises hes not the center of it and chief know it all!
vikey thinks hes a gen alpha gizmo wiz who uses AI and social media to better his life. wait till he discovers tiktok and he’ll be down the beach in his budgie smugglers filming cringe dances and then to be reeeeeal cool he’ll be 6 7ing all day long…. fucking 6 7 wtf, lil stupid boy tried that mind rot parrot shit the other day and lost his devices for the weekend.
I couldn’t understand anything you said in that second paragraph. Did AI write that for you? 🙂
no i cant and dont want to use ai so thats just my appalling grip on english/writing… or else your lack of understanding of kids these days?
6 7, 6 7, 6 7…. yea i dunno wtf they on about, i dont even think they know wtf it means.

Why don’t you just get a fucking job.
i do… my job is winding you up old boy 🙂
Nah that’s just your stupid hobby.
I’m suggesting a real job.

i dont “work” mate, i have fun and make money while im at it. life is grand mate, and its about to get even better and cruisier… work smarter not harder old chap

That’s an old question Viking. That was known about many decades ago.
Oh, you really do know it all then.
I, too, have known that for a very long time. I grew up with people who were in the midst of it andin the NZ intelligence service as it was.
However, others don’t necessarily know that.
Is there something wrong with sharing it or reminding others?
Anyway, you don’t own this blog, so mind your own fucking business.
No offense Viking, I assumed that most of us knew that. Sorry for assuming.
If anyone has been down the rabbit hole on Covid and the vaccines, they cannot help but stumble on the West – German connection, the west pushing Hitler to wipe out Russia, etc etc.
And the fact that elite have been financing wars, revolutions, vaccines, drugs, armaments, etc etc for a very long time.
Thats better, but many simply don’t know.
Many don’t even know our own correct history.
There was some assistance from large US corporates, including banks but Nazi Germany got most of it’s funding issuing fraudulent bonds. Look up Mefu bonds.

“The NZ Army’s new “general orders” to soldiers uses a pantheon of te ao Māori gods as guiding influences for its strategy “to achieve a bicultural status by enabling the recognition of Māori cultural interests as they are guaranteed within Te Tiriti o Waitangi”.”
Submission of our military.
How does the army build a united fighting force by imposing racial resentment between soldiers?
one must ask where in the treaty is there shit related to how the army operates?
if one didnt have prior knowledge of how short and simple the treaty actually is and only listened to/ read everything the treaty now encompasses one would think the treaty comprises of several 500page volumes on the bloody thing.
The chiefs were definitely well ahead of the game when they got special leave provisions written into the treaty for Maori.
There’s one thing the army taught them.
Ya don’t eat the ones ya kill. Not allowed.
You must eat them while alive?

Pauline Hanson slander is ‘based on a lie’
https://www.skynews.com.au/opinion/andrew-bolt/pauline-hanson-slander-is-based-on-a-lie/video/709e750739e9d0abba57b06c3f6821b9
7 minute video there.
Andrew Bolt says the pile on of Pauline Hanson by politicians and commentators is “based on a lie” because she was misquoted.
Mr Bolt warned against trying to shut out Pauline Hanson, and the“millions” of Australians she now speaks for.
“Pointing out these dangers that so many of our elite don’t want to see.”
Maybe clumsily expressed, but Andrew Bolt shows the whole context here & shows how the mainstream media & elite politicians want to shut her down.
Go Pauline Hanson.
Then as Pauline Hanson also touched on, probably not reported in mainstream media.
‘Diversity was our strength’: Rise of forced marriages in NSW

6 mins 15 secs :
Sky News host Danica De Giorgio questions if “diversity” is a strength for Australia with a rise in forced underage marriages in the past financial year.
“Underaged forced marriages in New South Wales reported to the Department of Communities and Justice Child Protection Hotline between 2024-25,” Ms De Giorgio said.
“Have almost doubled in the past financial year.”
Will they really bring a case, when Pauline Hanson also mentioned the Koran.
To put koranical evidence on trial would be great, plus the hadith, & the key sayings of Mohammand, the sunnah, particularly after the abrogation in the koran.
It is a drive to blacken, to make a loss of credibility as can be seen in the facebook comments, like “went too far”.
The problem being the work around, of using an imam, mufti or whatever, to keep the koran of limits.

6 mins 37 secs :
One Nation MP Barnaby Joyce says “literal views” of religious texts in sections of the Bible and the Quran are “intangible” in Australia.
“Where it becomes confusing is if someone says a good Muslim is determined by the views of an Imam or what they determine to be a good Muslim,” Mr Joyce told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“I believe in an Australian culture. Australia has guardrails, and it has guardrails that won’t be defiled by religion.”\
