Please let us vote this lot out. Untouched easily accessible wilderness is one of the most precious parts of NZ. Something you shouldn't put a price on.
On June 16, 2026, Wired published a bombshell.
A secret elite society called #Dialog, founded in 2006 by billionaire tech investor Peter #Thiel and Silicon Valley entrepreneur Auren #Hoffman, had its internal membership records exposed online. The data was found by maia arson #crimew, the same Swiss hacktivist who discovered the U.S. government’s No-Fly List.
She found names, personal phone numbers, email addresses, birthdates, and emergency contacts of some of the world’s most powerful people, along with "talks" list that is...wow.
But it's a more important story than people realize. It's not just a ketamine fueled Bildeburg with talks on how to build a cult.
It’s where the regulated and the regulator meet without a transcript.

The existence of a trillionaire strongly implies the existence of a political-economic-social system that's totally fucked.
'The wealthy are not our role models. They are not proof that the system works. They are proof of who the system works for. A trillionaire is not the symbol of a successful society. A trillionaire is the symbol of a society that has allowed wealth, power, and human possibility to be monopolised by a tiny ruling class while the vast majority produce the world and receive only a fraction of what they create. The proper response is neither envy nor admiration. It is opposition.'
Was just talking to a friend at a US technology company, they’ve had their budget reduced by 50% as the company says it wants to announce “the largest layoffs in US corporate history” to prove GenAI can replace jobs.
There’s no plan to actually replace the jobs with GenAI.. they just have to decimate their area.
Not naming company as the staff don’t know they’re about to fed to the line going up.
