UNDER THE INFLUENCE

 Last night the first 10 minutes of TV One's 6 O'clock (prime time) news was dedicated to a silly story about a couple of New Zealand 'influencers' being released from Iran.

NZ INFLUENCES 'FREED' FROM IRAN

These over-privileged and entitled bozos had been detained (not locked up) by Iranian officials after they were suspected of photographing military targets. It's very unlikely that they did (willingly) photograph any military targets but I believe that they willingly ignored and made fun of Iran's religious rules and protocols and civil and military laws. As professional and experienced travellers they would have known of the requirements but chose to ignore them because, well, they feel themselves to be entitled.

I'm disappointed that our government stepped in to assist these idiots and wish that they'd been left there. This just creates precedent for more 'look at me' idiots to do similar things in other 'sensitive' parts of the world.

"Fuck 'em" I say.

Topher Richwhite is not new to privilege and entitlement being the son of David Richwhite of Fay/Richwhite fame - the now near billionaires who raped and pillaged New Zealand resources like Kiwi Rail back in the 1980s and 1990s.

I like what The Daily Blog has to say about this:

THE DAILY BLOG

"If these two rich social media influencer wankers weren’t the well connected rich wankers that they are, would we really have had the corporate media self censor themselves while trapping the Government into not criticising Iran?

These two pompous arsehole social media influencers shouldn’t have been in fucking Iran at the time! There was a clear warning not to go there from MFAT and yet they chose to go there for their fucking social media audience!"

"We're so important, normal rules don't apply to us and our families are rich enough to lobby government to help us if it all turns to shit."

All the obscenities made me recoil. When I play PS5 games I kill people who talk like that.

Richard, there is only one God. Have not you been following my posts?

So, going by Robert's actions and justifications, murder is preferable to swearing?
That old Catholicism is an interesting religion alright.

If he is following them I hope he's carrying a shovel.

The last two featured some mad woman who seemed to think she was funny. I almost felt sorry for Trent.
