I think the red weetbix one is meant to be the most popular so we should all put that one down last, the blue one second last.

The black and blue one is the uglier of the two, and the one being pushed by Farrar, Hooton, et al.

I think the red one polled the best though, just going by memory I may be wrong.

There was like 2% in it I think. I don't think there's any way of knowing how the referendum will turn out, Red Peak fans are more passionate and therefore more likely to vote perhaps?

It's not possible to have a 5, 5, 5 is it? I find both the blue fern ones equally hideous. (I'm overseas so I haven't actually got mine yet) I find this whole thing really frustrating because I actually support a flag change, but all the options we get are jokes. None designed by a proper flag designer and all based on some company logo. There's really only two ways it can go, 1) We get a new flag that sucks almost as much as the old one. 2) No flag change, which means nobody will attempt to change it again in my lifetime. Sorry for the mini-rant. Oh well, I might vote for hypnoflag and then red peak.

Exclamation Marx posted:You can probably count the world's flag designers on both hands to be fair, and I don't think any of them are from NZ True, that one might have been a bit unfair. Those Lockwood ones look like they were designed by a 5-year old though, surely they could have done better than that.

They really were very good. Hitler wanted a symbol to compete with the hammer & sickle, and ended up straight up stealing the swastika on white on red from some random schlub who designed it for the nazis. I read this book this year, it's very good.

that book might be good but using 'totalitarian' to group fascist and communist governments that operated differently together is something real dumb that people should stop doing.

It's less concerned by the ideology and doesn't really conflate them; the four examples are used because they're fairly distinct and were each revolutionary in propaganda and presenting the identity of the state. The examples are Nazism (anti-modern fascism), USSR (modern communism), Fascist Italy (modern fascism) & Maoist China (anti-modern communism). Did u know the Nazis invented using acronyms for government departments etc?

I think I heard someone mention that Red Peak looks kind of like an abstract vagina, and ever since then I can't see it as anything else. Maybe I could use that to justify voting for it as like a feminist statement.

Reposting E: just to clarify, to avoid any potential confusion with your statement, I have a different interpretation of the Red Peak as a symbol for the coming dawn of human sacrifice over New Zealand.

By Key's retarded 12 year old logic we should also have a kiwi on the flag, and the lord of the rings and lorde and pavlova and sheep because they are all symbols people around the world associate with NZ, just chuck them all on the flag

Flags assert sovereignty. The issues are not unrelated. We stood strong in the face of our allies with our nuclear free policy. A clearly independent flag may amplify our courage to take a lead on issues like fair trade and climate change." Well that's utterly moronic

A newspaper uses the All Blacks symbol to recognise someone who was primarily known for being an all black = New Zealand needs a new flag. Obviously. There was no NZ flag because it wasn't about New Zealand you loving oval office!

Goddamn I am utterly sick of rugby. It's inescapable. A team wins a game, a guy retires from his job, a man dies unexpectedly, a flag needs changing and somehow the allblacks are referenced, a prime minister goes overseas to ostensibly engage in trade talks but ends up at a rugby game. When Honi Hirorewa spent a couple days in Paris after going overseas he was racked over the coals! I feel as bad for Jonah's family as I do for anyone else who've had a family member die, and the recent coverage of his passing is probably warranted since he was a public figure, and watching youtube videos of him just running through people like they weren't even there is really impressive, but gently caress I hate rugby. And now I've contributed to the rugby overload. poo poo.
