Well, she has a great point and @Rancid-Schnitzel has been known to refer to his trainer as a Nazi
I think my favourite bit of batshittery is when she mentions that the guy who went on the shooting spree in Christchurch was a fitness instructor.
Well she’d certainly be exterminated after 30 seconds into one of his sessions.
Crazy that people are getting cancelled left right and centre for what is often just adolescent or purile nonsense yet nobody seems to care when this hideous whale spouts off the kind of shit that will cause people to have chronic health problems and send them to an early grave.

Exactly. There’s people borderline obese who’ll swallow ( pun intended ) this shit and gleefully reach for another cream bun cos an ‘infuencer’ said it was ok.

Yep. And of course it will those people of colour or minorities that she claims to care most about who will be hit the hardest. As if physical fitness and good health was only something white people happened to stumble upon.
Having unfortunately been a regular visitor of hospitals when my wife was sick it would appear that most of those there needed a lot more of this apparent racism and Nazism in their lives.

She’s not exactly a compelling endorsement for vegetarians or vegans. Maybe she thought KFC meant Kentucky Fried Cake because she looks like she’s been in a bakery or 500.

@rancid-schnitzel duh, fish and chips ftw!

Stuff has a different definition of "famed" to the one I use. Anybody have any idea who this person is?

Absolutely none. You could point a gun at my head and I’d be clueless as to who this “famed” person is.

I got about 3 paragraphs in before I poured a coffee over it.
The first bit:
"We have forestry giants sending all our unprocessed wood overseas, to have it returned to us as plywood and hideous flat-pack furniture."I agree with that. Adding value to our own product is just sensible. We could start with other building materials but I can live with the comment in general.
Then there was this and I stopped:
"Our farmers can't make a buck out of wool, because now all our carpetmakers, bar one or two, seem to be sourcing cheap and horrid synthetic carpeting from overseas."She knows nothing about flooring / carpets. Wool only makes up about %10 of everything going into NZ homes. There are many reasons for this. SDN (solution dyed nylon) has come on in leaps and bounds. Stain resistant, healthier (allergies, etc) easy to clean, lasts longer. I could go on. It isn't "horrid" and it isn't a cheap acrylic alternative to wool. Wool gets carpet beetle, absorbs moisture. I could go on. The only people who buy wool from us now are, yep, farmers.
My point is if you are going to write an opinion piece at least do some research and know what you are talking about. An educated opinion it used to be called. Which is indeed the point of this thread.

I hope you don’t apply the criteria of that last paragraph to the fern.
