I thought it was impossible for any house to not have a distinctive visual appearance until I saw the picture.

I don’t mind people not wanting foreigners to come and do things like this to their countryside. You need to relax.

I like how Democrats use the term “progressive” to describe themselves. In reality they are regressive.

Yeah, he’s not having that place built specifically for his own comfort. He’s building it in order to escape what the frick is going to be going on in the next few years. Seems like the ideal location to wait it out for a few decades with his slave labor that for two generations have been bred to not know anything about the outside world.

The entire country is a bunch of tech moguls and billionaires looking for a safe haven from a global crisis. This isn’t a new thing.

He wants to build an underground bunker the blends in with the countryside and they say it’s an eyesore? Come on man, you can’t be this stupid

I laughed. But, it’s all the same thing. We all get it.

Sorry but I was too distracted by the article at the bottom for national nude body painting day.

NZ is a socialist country. Freedom is not guaranteed. The state rules all.

You should be less sure of your own opinions.

Either way, ignorance and stupidity are not synonymous. I am ignorant of whether or not Thiel is the only foreigner wanting to build a bunker/home in NZ, and I don’t care.

My point is I think lots of freedom loving conservatives go a little too far in what they want money to be able to buy.

You learned a new skill, actually I'm impressed. You're never too old to stop growing as a person.
