Jack Yan (甄爵恩)@Happyfishmedia They know they treated people badly, so they will vote down (or abstain from voting) anything that might see justice for victims. Hard to see us taking this racist position if Ardern were PM (or Clark, or … Swarbrick).
@Happyfishmedia Cruelty is actually part of their make-up—that it’s fine to shit on others. They might even bring in God and Jesus to make it a righteous religious quest.
@jackyan I remember visiting Cartagena de Indias, in Colombia, which was one of Spain's slave ports and distribution hubs for South America... It was a bit overwhelming to think of all the people who were trafficked through there.
@Happyfishmedia It was bloody awful, especially when you go to those locations and the sheer scale hits you.
@jackyan the horrendous torture devices I saw at the Museum of the Inquisition were... Unexpected...
@Happyfishmedia I’m going to not imagine what they were like …
@jackyan it should have been a no-brainer really, but maybe our current government has even less than no brain
@Happyfishmedia If scientific and historical evidence suggest that path X is the right one, and one does path Y, then this stands to reason …
