Well, what up y'all, welcome to all our readers here in New Zealand & around the world, I'm Whets here & you're tuning in into my Kiwiavenger blog, but first of all that I already mentioned about my story last month about Facebook/Meta attempting to successfully enforce a crack down on fact checking that is deemed to be free speech which is bad stuff all over the place like harmful content & stuff just like the Elon Musk (One of Donald Trump's close allies/associates & founder of the American car manufacturer Tesla which was established in 2003) owned social media account X (For which it was once known as Twitter until 2022 when Musk took over by renaming it to X) following Trump's victory against outgoing US Vice President Kamala Harris in last years US General Election according to its CEO Mark Zuckerberg who is in fact a bona-fide Trump supporter along with the head & CEO of the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) as well as a good friend of the US President-elect who recently joined the social media platform as a member of the board, Dana White (The one who took over from the previous head of UFC & billionaire Lorenzo Fertitta way back in 2001, & the one who spoke to Graham Bensinger on his show In Depth with Graham Bensinger about MMA being prohibited in the American state of New York mainly due to excessive violence that results in violent crime being spread), then in rugby that Mack Hansen is free to play in Ireland's Six Nations opener against England in Dublin after the disciplinary committee punished him with a 3 game ban for being abusive regarding to poor behaviour, such as foul language that he illegally used during a post match interview about for criticizing a referees decision that was controversial in which Hansen misbehaved like a child (Compared to Formula One that the use of offensive language is prohibited as drivers are being told to limit their appalling behaviour such as abuse), but he apologised to the ref Chris Busby (Who decided to quit refereeing following a torrent of abuse being spewed all over on social media just before this year's Six Nations) after the game for abusing him before, then he required to complete an education course to behave himself in situations like during an after match interview, meanwhile the CEO of World Rugby of Alan Gilpin is getting sick & tired of rugby referees still getting abused online by these disrespectful, rude & unruly abusers with severe punishments/sanctions likely to be handed out those who do online hate towards the officials (And they're trying to make it clear as they about to become silent by muzzling those who show dissent illegally towards the refs of giving heavy criticism about them, just like English TMO Tom Foley who quit after being given a hostile reaction on social media online following the Rugby World Cup in 2023 in which our die hard AB's fans were voicing our disapproval about the red card handed out to AB's captain at the time of Sam Cane by English referee Wayne Barnes which is sorta like aggressive hate speech as they illegally sent a barrage of death threats towards Foley & his family back in the UK), following a rugby fan living in Australia who is facing charges for insulting & trolling Nic Berry on social media about a match winning try by Sam Skinner for Scotland against France during last year's Six Nations, should've been awarded in which the rugby world is still crying red card about hate & abuse online (And Pops told me on the 13th of January that a red mist (Which they can't do that because it's also prohibited just like shoulder charges (No arms in the tackle) in rugby league since 2013 due to player safety which resulted in a crack down) can cause issues regarding to health).
And secondly, in which the United States of America is declaring war & getting tough on TikTok with the users of that account like social media personalities & celebs are going to be affected by being it outlawed in that country in the process since it's being owned by a Chinese company so they're trying to clamp it down (I once saw a picture of an eagle-eyed protester in the United States owing & responding to a potential ban on TikTok (For what I thought the Chinese owners were going to sell it, but that's not the case since it's unlikely about to happen) holding a sign up saying 'Free TikTok', just like 'Free Palestine' which is deemed to be offensive towards the people of Israel since it is an anti-Semitic slur) in a controversial way which is the most of circumstances, in response of China successfully blocking & prohibiting the 3 American social media platforms of Facebook, Instagram & X (And I once did a story about it last year on my blogs back in June), but there is a new legislation called the Jack's law in Australia in which cops were able to search prohibited stuff by using their metal detectors which is being mandated like dangerous knives & other weapons to be confiscated (And unlike in the NRL that Rabbitohs player at the time of Jaiman Lowe way back in 2007 that he king hitted an opposition player who played for the Gold Coast Titans of Brett Delaney (Who grabbed Lowe in the groin area after making that tackle prior to that incident had been happened) before getting sent off for it by the referee, then he got 4 weeks for it, but the Danny Williams (The one who plays for the Storm at the time who got sentenced behind bars for glassing a woman in 2022 at a popular Sydney nightclub after someone was complaining for Williams who was singing too loudly as well as foul language illegally being used prior to the incident) one was worse when he deliberately punched a West Tigers player Mark O'Neill (Who was on the receiving end of a serious case of foul-play) in the face in an off the ball incident after being high tackled by O'Neill (Well, the ref should've blown the whistle for a penalty straight away for a high contact (And you can't just play on after a player is tackled high) should the assault had not been occurred) in which the referee had to put it on report (But O'Neill didn't get suspended in wake of the incident regarding to serious foul play due to insufficient amount of penalty points being accumulated) also way back in 2004 before he got red carded by the ref, then he received 18 weeks for it (For what was the longest NRL ban ever handed out in history) which ended his NRL career before moving to the UK to play Super League in 2005 after his contract with the Melbourne Storm had been terminated, but was told to serve the rest of the suspension that he received/carried over) in a bid to stamp out knife crime (Just like New Zealand introducing knife control which had cracked down on them at supermarkets after a serious terrorist incident being reported in Wellington at a Countdown (Now Woolworths) supermarket during the midst of a COVID Delta outbreak in 2021) following the murder of a young male named Jack over in Surfer's Paradise by a group of men suspected of carrying a knife, & then in the UK, especially in England & Wales, have declared war on the use of zombie knives following a spate of tragic killings/murders back then with possession of an illegal weapon like zombie knives for example, results in a would-be criminal being sent to the slammer straight away.
And thirdly that the Rugby Challenge 4 PS4 game that I preordered on Mighty Ape with the assistance of Dad that it's on their way as it left UK shores according to the tracker because I told him that it might take weeks or months to suss it out (And I've got the digital copy to start with, but Dad prefers to wait for the new Rugby 25 video game to come out on consoles (And they have not revealed the release date for consoles (I'm getting the PS5 version for him which is a physical copy, while I'm getting the digital version on both the PS4 & PS5), but it's only available on PC which is the early access version of the game (And the Rugby League Live 4 game (PS4 version) that Dad still plays is listed as a collectors item), but however it has arrived on the 13th of January as Pops who acquired it from Dad gave my main Christmas present to me for which I was so happy.
And finally that wildfires have burst across Los Angeles, California that have been spread with fresh new evacuation orders being issued by the fire department even though with one of the former Aussie child actors has passed away from the fires along with at least 13 other people due to a lack of water with heaps of people losing their homes while a famous Hollywood celeb film star as well as a scream queen of Jamie Lee Curtis (Who likens the LA fires such as the ones as the entire Pacific Palisades looks like, to war-torn Gaza or one of these other war-torn countries as she stated in the viral clip which sparked a bit of backlash) donated $1 million with the battle continues as Palisades Fire threatens Brentwood, Valley with the wildfire has grown up to 22,660 acres & is at 11% containment as it pushes inland through Brentwood, up into the Bel-Air area.
So that is my 594th blog of the year 2025 (MMXXV) & my 18th of this year, viva Ukraine & Palestine.
