Come on, everyone knows that money launderers declare all their income while thieves don't.Go on then, how are they worse

Sorry I forgot "thou shall not money launder" was #11Go on then, how are they worse
Sounds like a list a money launderer would write

And the MormonsSo, that explains how the Catholic Church has so much money
And the JWs
And the SDA's
I'd add some more well known institutions but it's probably safer to stay in my lane in the music nerds thread.
Especially if you want to visit the States anytime soon.

Complete boring rage bait from you as usual. Here's a real demagogue criticizing the un because they quite rightly point out the destructive racist policies of this hard right government.CHTgot describes a demagogue as:
a person—usually a political leader or public speaker—who gains power or support by appealing to people’s emotions, fears, and prejudices rather than using reasoned arguments or facts.
Key traits of a demagogue:
In short:
- Uses emotional language (anger, fear, pride)
- Blames problems on scapegoats (groups, outsiders, elites)
- Makes simplistic promises to complex problems
- Often dismisses experts, institutions, or the media
- Frames themselves as the only true voice of “the people”
A demagogue persuades by stirring feelings, not by sound reasoning.
Sounds exactly like Chloe and most left politics - personality politics; divisively creating enemies in landlords, wealthy, employers, colonisers, elites, etc using fear and emotion.
One of the big difference between the left and right really.

Right wing examples: immigrants, cultural change
Left wing examples: climate change, elites, corporations, landlords, businesses, racists, farmers, the rich, the wealthy, racists, colonialism, privatisation, Isreal, etc, etc.
Pretty one sided. And counteracting Seymour UN, the left want to defund the whole police!

If Luxon allegedly has a conflict of interest in housing because he owns rental properties 
Do labour therefore have a conflict of interest in housing as they have a capital gains tax whose success and income is based on maximising house prices going up?
Let’s vote Labour for higher house prices

Labour has eight-point lead over National in latest poll
Labour’s rise to 38% would still leave it short of a majority in Parliament.
Were you one of those polled that gave them an 8 point lead currently? Polls are all over the place, but all are close. I still think continuing with Luxon will cost them the election

So many times, including coming up to elections where they are way out.

You wouldn’t want to. 8 points is quite a lead, though neither could form a government on those poll numbers
I actually cancelled mine last week due to the changes from inflation etc that they had factored in. I thought about it and what I’d payed into it and decided to opt back in having 30 days to reconsider and dropped the cover a bit
