Comrades, I’ve had a week to digest the reality that the Political Right have cancelled gold award winning political podcast, The Working Group, and want to thank all the very kind people who have reached out with kind words.

5 days ago | thedailyblog.co.nz | Martyn Bradbury

How is this even a question? Of course we should ban under 16s from social media you fools!It is crack cocaine for the brain!They are insanely addictive attention harvesters using psychologically attuned hate algorithms that feed neurosis and depression. These social media networks have been built by people whose goal is unregulated profit via never ending attention, they enslave adults, they are mutating young people.
