The NZ centre-right National Party was formed from a coalition of United (liberals) and Reform (conservatives), which were the two big parties before Labour came on the scene

Vladimir Poutine posted:wasn't rail in NZ one of the few examples of something that's been de-privatised? Like privatisation made it really shithouse so they changed it back or something. they nationalised air nz and rail (kiwirail) in the early 2000s. it's still not great, there's an endless thing of "we aren't getting enough passengers" -> "better raise fares" at least where i live, and i'm not sure how much better or worse they were before 2008. rail and public transport in general has been neglected recently, with lovely stuff like buying asbestos-riddled trains from china because they're cheap. the current government is all roads roads roads tho, upgrading sections of highway (roads of national significance ) to fail at dealing with congestion and save a couple of minutes at a low bcr.

pangstrom posted:When it comes to its denial of human nature, postmodernism is looney-tunes. (But my intention was to say "the looney tunes version of postmodernism" because I'm sure there's some strain that isn't as absolutist) isn't absolutism pretty much the opposite of postmodern thought though?

am i right in saying that 'social justice' was initially (like in the 60s/70s) just a euphemism for socialism, rather than referring to social progressivism like it does today?
|
|
# ¿ Sep 2, 2014 23:41 |
i ask because i've seen it used by working class conservative labourites during the 70s, i.e. people who were opposed to stuff like gay rights/abortion. i suppose its meaning has broadened since then to include those and other issues. i don't think i've ever seen 'social justice' by itself as a pejorative, only 'social justice warrior'. Always thought the latter started as a kind of eye-rolling thing towards transethnics/otherkin types but is now the new political correctness
