Some of you may remember me from other general debates. I am writing today because I’ve been away from kiwiblog for a little while, and I decided to catch up by reading some older posts. I read this – I think it was oct 5th but I’m not sure – anyway, the jist was this: DPF wrote that there were groups of people who didn’t seem to believe in an earnestly held right wing view, and who assumed that such a view must be supported by ignorance. I gave this writing some consideration, and found that, in my case, it is true. I am a pretty left wing person – I often describe myself as having a chewy communist centre – and when I think about politics, I tend to think that people only favour right leaning parties because they are not as thoughtful or well educated as me.
Well! There’s a big problem with that opinion, obviously. Leaving aside any questions of the right solution for NZ politics, it is simply not a nice attitude to bring to a debate, and, naturally, I am unlikely to learn anything from right-wingers or right wing politics if I assume there is nothing you can teach me. So I am trying this approach – here are some questions and thoughts I have about right wing thought, or right leaning politics and I hope you will be able to answer some or all of them.
(I promise there is no sting in this – I’m just interested.)

1: Do you believe that everyone has equal opportunities for success and advancement under capitalism?
2: Do you believe that competition is a true indication of human nature?
3: Do you believe that people are more likely to commit crimes without a strong deterrent, such as tough prison terms?
4: Do you think the general right wing pattern, such as illustrated by Sarko in France, has a Christian basis, in the sense that it is predicated on some sense of eventual judgement for one’s hard work? And if so, would you consider this a protestant influence?
5: Do you think there are places where people can interact without an imbalance of power, and if so, where?

Meahwhile, over at your pathetic bitter and nasty little blog, all one can observe is the most infantile and obsessive hate driven crap about Mr. Farrar or D4J. You rank hypocrite.

just continue writing to yourself.

we need the entertainment.

I love this blog.

I do think we are burning the wrong effigy now.

She is actually completing the original traitors work.

We are so close to tyranny in this country we must stiffle our shudders
and see the naked communism for what it is.

If the plebs swallow the tax cuts NZ is over.

Hey Hina ” Keep your mutts away from minors d4j,, you know we know.”

If you said that to my face – you would need a hospital very quickly !!

where did that idea come form,, I’m not the only one who thought so.

Tomorrow nights headline news will be all the disasters and and cats wif sky rockets up their ass. I would sign a petition against Guy Fawkes on that issue alone.

btw,,

Did any one read about that school girl who was sprayed with acid from a school bus today or yesterday ??

D4J answered as John,, lol

How can you resist baiting.

Keep your mutts away from minors d4j,, you know we know.

Do you think it’s possible that some time in the near future a picture of John Key will be hanging where Dear leaders bucked tooth image was so desecrated in the red heart land.

If Mickey savage was to walk into the house today would he mistakenly head for the Nat seats to their howls of ‘tory’ derision at the shocked and dismayed ‘red’ faces.

Would be a beautiful picture and a good idea for a Sunday night Montana theatre.

bring on the parody someone in TV land!!!!!!

Yeah, that is one of the clearest D4J give-aways. However, the moderators have not said anything about it and it’s not against the policy as far as we know and everyone knows that John = D4J so no harm, no foul at the end of the day?

What a bunch of muppets. We pay them so the government can tell them what to predict.
