New Zealanders have heard a lot about “disinformation” in the last couple of years. And “misinformation”.
According to the home-grown research group The Disinformation Project, “Misinformation is false information that was not created with the intent to harm people,” while “Disinformation is false information that was created with the intent to harm a person, community, or organisation.”
Either way, what the TDP calls “information disorders” have become such an issue for the government that our Prime Minister made them the subject of the Commencement speech she gave at Harvard University last week.
Unfortunately, it was rather one-sided, reflecting values that, judging by the frequent applause, went down well in one of the bastions of liberalism, but are themselves a breeding ground of information disorders.

OK, I’ve had a couple of beers, which I rarely do, monthly allowance and all that, and I wasn’t buying. But wouldn’t you just love to drive a supercharged, multipoint injected, high lift, V8, 454 Chev powered, four wheel drive truck fitted with a 2 inch diameter custom hydroformed tube and billet bull bar bolted on the front, right thorugh those horse teeth of hers?

During her narcisitic display I believe she uttered the phrase, “Forgive me…..whilst I drink some water.”
No I won’t forgive you miss Ardern, I want you to die!
Please drown on that water now!
