People who ignore the point of a post in order to moralise.

Someone complains about poor service from DoorDash - “well don’t use it then, you should learn to cook, I cook every meal.”

Someone asks for advice about buying a pre-made sauce - “You should just make it yourself, it’s so much better.”

A parent asks for thoughts about a kids TV show - “Kids shouldn’t be watching TV, my kids spend all day outside playing.”

Yes, congratulations, you’re Better Than Everyone Else. Feel better now?

Even worse when the entire post gets derailed by people circle jerking about how they grew their own tomatoes in their own organic garden and canned their own sauces and they’ll never go back to pre made and people actually answering the question get downvoted. Good for you, go find a homesteading subreddit to talk to each other about that. I just wanted to ask a question about this jar of pasta sauce!

Make sure you enrol to vote before election day!

Just a reminder - same day enrolments are no longer possible. In order to vote in this general election, you must be enrolled 13 days before.

https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360769043/government-moves-end-same-day-enrolment-under-new-electoral-law-changes

Over 130,000 people enrolled to vote in the two week window before the 2023 election. It’s no accident that this will disproportionately affect voters who traditionally aren’t likely to vote for the parties in the coalition.

Please reach out to those in your lives who might be caught out by this - young people, people who move a lot, or people who just have a lot going on in their lives. You can check if you’re enrolled by going here https://vote.nz/enrolling/enrol-or-update/enrol-or-update-online

Spread the word and let’s make sure everyone’s vote can count.
