I’ve never quite understood why New Zealand has such a self-loathing attitude.
It almost rises to the level of a cultural death-wish.
For example, this practice of allowing foreign saboteurs into the Parliament, where they go on to loudly demand onerous changes to the locals they now presume to rule:
Ghahraman said the delays risked politicising the issue, something that marginalised communities could ill afford.
"The Government's delays to take action have now potentially pushed this reform - even if they act upon it - into an election year. And the last thing these really vulnerable communities need is to become an election political football, which makes them far more unsafe. Literally, physically unsafe," she said.
Golly G, with her usual eye-rolling woke theatrics, refers here to the “hate speech” [sic] law which the Labour government has (in a rare moment of lucidity) shut down.
For the Government to not even act to bring hate crime definitions into our criminal law is wild to me. That's a really simple change.
For the Persian globalist who cares not a song for our established traditions of individual freedom and inviolable human rights, it must be a real burden to know that people have different thoughts.
They’re even allowed to express them without criminal penalties.
Whatever would happen if we didn’t penalize the crimethink?
In terms of the hate speech reforms, this is something that the Human Rights Commission already reviewed and called for in 2016. So the same thing should have happened with hate speech - the bits that we already knew were missing should have come into Parliament really quickly," she said.
You know what’s weird?
Every time “human rights” is mentioned by any of these people, you are guaranteed to find a new boot ready to stamp on somebody’s face.
It’s right up there with “democracy”. When you see that word from a leftist, you can expect a highly undeomcratic proposal.
Not to be outdone GG’s simping for authoritarian rule, a commenter (who styles himself as a “World Bank Retiree”, to exactly no one’s shock) writes:
Jacinda did quite a good job on this on trip to the US in her speech to the Harvard academy. One had to be impressed by her demeanour, the content of her speech and the audience's standing ovation in response.
If I have one bug-bear about politics.
If there is one thing that burns me up with anger like none other.
There is no such thing. I don’t give up my emotional energy to this circus.
But if there was, it would be this worm-like boot-licking.
This man has no self respect.
While Mr. World Bank Globalist thinks she is doing a good job, as laughable as it is, that is not the worst part.
The worst part is that he is this impressed by superficial public relations clap-trap like “demeanour”.
I don’t care about a politician’s demeanour. Hey, she wrecked the country, but man she can talk good!
Nobody can afford food and the economy is wrecked for the indefinite future but that standing ovation.
We are ruled well and truly by goddamn morons.
Not to be outdone by this simping, Marc Daalder responds with his characteristic and totally not insane insight:
Having the wrong thoughts is literally violence. If you disagree with left-wing politics, you have literally punched a vulnerable community in the face.
We must end democracy in order to save it.
I’ve been wondering which will end this first, the economic collapse or a political counter-revolution.
So far the economy is winning. You can’t be psycho-woke when nobody can afford food.
If you're talking about foreigners in Parliament what about the same in our news media? Daalder is probably the wokest creep in our media.
Regarding Aotearoa. It's a British invention. Aotea were one of the canoes that came here to NZ, from where who knows. But it's the British who added the roa to that.
