I wrote in 20 locations around riccarton and ilam. Most of my chalk was on riccarton road or perhaps 50 metres into a side street.

My website stats are not that great even after all my effort. I'm glad I gave it a go and set an example, because some people supported me. One guy shouted out to me "bro you're right, landlords ARE parasites". So, most people don't say it out loud, but there are people who agree with me. I was between the university and Ilam New World writing with my chalk, and a group of students walked past. One girl just said "FACTS". They got the message :)
Most New Zealanders are neither here nor there, they just wander aimlessly through life with a passive attitude like NPCs in a computer game. I'm not trying to win over those who are entirely passive "go with the flow, yeah nah bro" kinds of fools. If a few good people saw my chalk and laughed, then it was worth it. I don't care about the unwashed masses who are willing to accept any amount of abuse from landlords or the government. The type of person who rents, but is indifferent to my cause, I ignore them. These people will be the first to line up at the edge of a trench and take a bullet to the back of the head, willingly, if there was an authoritarian government. I'm the person who has to be assassinated or black-bagged first thing because I'm the person who agitates the second tier.
