Ardern's government might have sounded progressive, but it was all talk. They never did anything good and I'm still poor and I struggle to save any money. My future has been destroyed by these people who pretend to be progressive.

That's true and I'm aware of it. If we had an authoritarian leader who would build houses then I'd be all for it, but more likely we'll get some out-of-touch boomer who brings in a racial agenda and other crap, while not fixing the daily problems that people like me face.

 

I'm living in a crowded boarding house and it isn't fun. Especially when 1 room has a couple with a child. Lots of screaming, banging on walls and crap like that. It still costs half my wage and I can't use the facilities most of the time. The hot water usually doesn't work between 9am and 8pm.

I'd like to step up and start a discussion group or political movement, since there are NIMBY elements still trying to slow down density. Would anyone care to meet up in Christchurch? It can be a pub or pizza at first.

I think it's a good thing if people trust the government less and less, all this conspiracy stuff just means that people have access to other information. I'll end up dying alone in a run-down hostel at the rate things are going, I have no interest in defending the government here in New Zealand after everything they've done to spread poverty. I don't care what the official narrative is. I may be aware of it, but I don't actively follow it.
