Gary Stevenson: Harsh warning for future if inequality worsens
Angela Antunovic@isaacfreeman @bananabob Thank you Isaac. Are the #NZGreens on Bluesky? I've never seen anything bridged.
Isaac FreemanKia ora! I'm an #NZGreens member, and one of the co-convenors of the Green Geeks network for techie people.
As far as I know there are no Green MPs currently using Mastodon, but there are plenty of members. I’m currently working on a position paper on social media which will advocate for a presence here. It's a classic challenge for any progressive organisation though: do you spend your time on building the world you want to see or on engaging with people in the world as it is? The answer always needs to be a balance of both, but at the moment we need to reckon with the fact that the raw numbers of users are stacked against spending time on Mastodon. Especially during an election year, it's a hard case to make for a very busy media team.
I’ll be emphasising that Mastodon users are disproportionately going to be people who’d consider voting Green, and look for ways to get started. In the meantime, we can make sure members have a visible presence.
This is what independent foreign policy looks like. If only more parliamentarians in NZ had the conviction of the Green Party

Yes, when Gareth Morgan, a dedicated conservationist and formerly left leaning economist, set up TOP now Opportunities Party he did so because he disagreed with the Green's social and economic ideology.
The party's creation essentially cost NZ Greens (and Labour) ultimately benefiting the right and increasing poverty, privitisation and corporate control, carbon emissions, ecological and environmental collapse etc.
The way I see it, if you're committed to a livable economic and environmental future for your and everyone else's children then there's only one (2 incl TPM) political party with the policy and commitment to grabbing hold of that "opportunity" while we still can.
