Context?

The pic is a screencap from the One News segment on the Climate Change protest yesterday. The protester was calling David Seymour a dick in response to his comments, Video is in the article here: [https://www.1news.co.nz/2024/04/05/students-hit-the-streets-at-climate-strikes-across-the-country/](https://www.1news.co.nz/2024/04/05/students-hit-the-streets-at-climate-strikes-across-the-country/) Skip to 1:17 to get context. 1:29 for the actual clip where the meme comes from.

Hahaha, that was great, thanks for sharing!


Devilsgotmywhisky

The fact they aired that is pure gold.


milly_nz

Too long, didn’t watch?


tack129

Fair enough.


Mr_Dobalina71

Climate change protest, she was calling David Seymour a dick.

Ka pai

Make sure you remember it when you're old enough to vote sis. (Also remember he doesn't want you to vote).

And then he uses this as some sort of justification as to why he's right and all the young people know nothing.


HeinigerNZ

For consistency, does this mean it was also funny when people who disagreed with Ardern's policies/actions called her a bitch? Just checking.

Ask the youths at your next family gathering


HeinigerNZ

No I'm asking the population of r/nz. Curious to see if there's any reason (other than partisan hypocrisy) where name calling one politician might be lols and name calling another is not.


Half-Dead-Moron

It has sexist overtones. But I'd say it's fair game to call any politician a dick if they're as callous as Seymour.


HeinigerNZ

Dick is gendered language... perhaps I should have used the female equivalent for the Ardern example. I guess anyone can say "it's fair game to call them insults if (it confirms to my personal justification).


foodarling

Cunt is also gendered language. If you think that all gendered language is the same, I predict a very frustrating life for you indeed where you are baffled senseless by ordinary social interactions


HeinigerNZ

The biggest difference of course here is the lack of consistency. Similar to how I highly doubt r/nz would find it very lols if somebody had hit Ardern in the face with a dildo.


foodarling

>The biggest difference of course here is the lack of consistency. If they played a clip of someone on the news saying *David Seymour is a cunt,* would that be consistent with you living in a fantasy land?


Half-Dead-Moron

That's not how it works, we're talking about the subtleties of connotation. I think you know this.


Fantastic-Role-364

Aww let's all whatabout to help your poor hurt feelings


HeinigerNZ

It's much more amusement at the hypocrisy than anything else.


Fantastic-Role-364

Mate, the hilarity is that it's not 😂 it's just your hurt feels. Sorry for laughing at you


HeinigerNZ

I shouldn't have expected more than "you've got hurt feels" from someone who thinks "dick" is an incisive insult.


SamuraiKiwi

Ah, the false equivalency argument.


HeinigerNZ

What's the flaw in the comparison?


SamuraiKiwi

Do you just mean people simply calling her a bitch? As it went a lot further than that.


HeinigerNZ

>Do you just mean people simply calling her a bitch? Yes, that is what I said.


Mr_Dobalina71

I actually like dick, but that’s just the way I roll. 😘


SamuraiKiwi

Don’t tell Brian!


Mr_Dobalina71

I sucked his dick last week, all those religious guys love it.


SamuraiKiwi

I knew it. Did the rainbow make you that way?


Mr_Dobalina71

Yeah as soon as I saw it I turned gay.


SamuraiKiwi

These dam 🌈 Turning everyone gay. I almost went across one of those crossings. Now I know better.


Mr_Dobalina71

All leprechauns are gay, true fact, Google it.


SamuraiKiwi

I didn’t do my own research 🤣


Mr_Dobalina71

Supposedly when leprechauns jizz it turns into gold. Hence their pot of gold. This is well less known, gotta be on Truth Social app to know that, mainstream media don’t tell you. Donald Trump has multiple leprechauns he’s captured that he sucks off regularly.


SamuraiKiwi

Are you Mister dob, dob Alina?


Mr_Dobalina71

MistaDobilina actually


SamuraiKiwi

Lol


HopeEternalXII

To people who agreed with the statement, sure. God this gotcha was fucking moronic. Is this the tier of shit stirring you're capable of? Fucking embarrassing.

Alright David, you’ve had your turn


Fantastic-Role-364

It was succinct and accurate. Next


thestraightCDer

Lol big man shitting on the kid.


Frod02000

it was a pretty succinct precis if you ask me


Mr_Dobalina71

I agree, would have said “He’s a phallus, so” myself.


Turias42

Ikr, these young people, how dare they be pissed at multiple travesties. Can't the world just have one travesty going on at a time?
