PoA use right wing blogger to denigrate worker

Slater has fallen to a new low, and when you consider it, that is an incredible feat for him.

You would have thought Slater's claim that the dead mother of Chris Carter using a taxpayer funded phone was impossible to top. You would have thought Slater's willful misinterpretation of Jim Anderton's comments on an 'earthquake' could never be beaten. You would have thought a convicted criminal who breached Court suppression for ego purposes like Slater would never challenge the dizzying lows of his own style of open sewer journalism.

But he has.

Publishing the details of a warf worker who was given leave during the terminal illness of his wife is a sick gutter tactic beneath even the blogosphere.

The final eye rolling part of this is that Cameron Slater uses his own personal circumstances with depression as any excuse to throw his toys if they are mentioned, yet he is so gleeful in using others personal circumstances to damn them. Hypocrisy doesn't even begin to define his actions here. He is the wolf who cries boy.

The PoA have run a sophisticated propaganda campaign during their manufactured crises. They seed spin on Whaleoil, failed ACT party candidates and David 'bore of babylon' Farrar's blogs and the under resourced news rooms of NZ regurgitate it. This leads to the misperceptions that the dispute is about good for nothing warfies earning $90 000 per year. As many wiser voices have pointed out, that claim is bullshit.

That the mainstream media have the audacity to jump up and down about Willie Jackson calling for civil disobedience and protesters calling scabs scabs, yet are so silent on a right wing blogger using the personal tragedy of someone who is willing to speak out against Ports of Auckland is an indictment of how far entrenched the PoA propaganda already is within NZ's newsrooms.

The continued influence of right wing blogs over underfunded news rooms in this country is a genuine problem, the NZ Herald for example still has no counter left wing opinion to go up against David Farrar, who is the Government's online propagandist and pollster of choice.

The left has never been able to expect the msm to be balanced, and they need smarter newer ways of competing against the tide. When the Greens were locked out of leaders debates, they streamed their own online. The rest of the left could learn some lessons from the Greens electoral success.

Fully agree - there are some horribly miss-informed opinions, often adopted as truth.
MMP = 2 party leader debate? an obvious manipulation of media. The public deserve the chance to measure leaders against leaders, not old government v new government, this limits progress no matter which side your on.
The "face" of party politics can be misleading - challenge yourself & enquire.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Josef Goebbels.

Sounds familiar? Since the re-election of National there seems to be a full blown blitzkrieg in effect with the vestiges of fairer times eradicated, this country like the entire globe is increasingly governed by outright lies tarted up as policy.

Considering we’re only three months into a three year term, it makes one quiver as to the prospect of what will be left when the current term of terror expires, since already public service broadcasting, assets, the Treaty of Waitangi, the welfare system, education, unions and workers’ rights have been put to the firing line and are destined towards the kill zone with lies serving to provide cross fire from some sectors of the public suggestive to the scare mongering, hate baiting fascist propaganda system employed. Since Hitler destroyed the trade unions four months into power and here we find ourselves with an agenda similarly comparable, this reminds one of the statements or poem inspired by Pastor Martin Niemoller:

First they came for the Socialists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.

Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Given the many different versions of the above it appears the authorities here are in progress of ticking off one of the boxes in their move towards fulfilling their depraved vision of a fascist, international socialist corporate oligarchy. This above all illustrates the importance public inaction has in assisting tyranny.

The public should awake and realise their predicament, the authorities here and worldwide are interested in only pursuing goals to meet their own gains, hence the austerity measures, a mechanism designed to ravage any opportunities for the “common” person to progress, rendering them to bow down before their “new gods” with the powers of life or death.

The majority of the public only stand to face disadvantage should the current course be permitted to progress that’s why it’s imperative the public stand up in solidarity against the malevolent few and cast aside the prejudices these tyrants entice with their depraved propaganda vehicle; “Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred. “ Goebbels.

There should be extensive protests a “Day of Discontent” modelled after the Arab Spring’s “Day of Rage”.

They call his blog Snake-Oil and it’s a most suitable name…The Author is one Mr. Slater once again a most suitable name…
He is right-wing and a great fan of Smirky Keys, the man who made his millions from ripping-off the greedy financial markets that have now collapsed all around the world.

He greatly enjoys writing about people’s families and the ills that sometimes befall them. He plays with truth as he spins his political bull-sh.., he simply drips envy and greed.

Depression is a part of his scene, self-inflicted and expanded it reaches into his style of blog…some would call it hate speech while others would call it simply a lack of intelligence and ability.

But overall he has a role to play and that is as evidence of how low one can go in the world of blogging. No other blogger has reached his standard of low life, he has been tried and convicted before and still not learned the lesson. That behaviour normally goes away on reaching adulthood, but alas sometimes it lingers on into middle age and even longer.

It might be best to simply imagine Mr. Slater as a snake charmer playing his flute as he sits in front of his snake basket hope the snake will arise…sadly his snake has died and Mr. Slater is unaware of that fact, for he has lost his sense of smell…the only smell that surrounds our Mr. Slater is deeply embedded in his mind, in his ego…in his stupidity.

With his last blog Mr. Slater better know as Snake oil is now dead and the stench will be blown away in the wind. As he will...

I'd be depressed if I were him as well.
