Reminder – Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says free speech is a weapon of war, and censorship is necessary to protect free speech.

Scratch a Leftist and you will always find a Grand Inquisitor. She is utterly confident that what she proposes will never be turned against her and her allies. Honey, one of the great truths of this Vale of Tears is that the wheel always comes round.
Soon after a People are disarmed, a totalitarian orders them to be silent and they willfully submit. It’s psychological.
Remove from the people their God-given human freedoms of religion, speech and self-defense for the sake of order.
… What was that C.S. Lewis quote again? The one about tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims?
Have a gander at that woman’s employment history before she was prime minister. Our qualifications for public office should be set to make a career like hers rare if not legally debarred.
One thing we’ve seen of late here there and the next place in the occidental world is a collapse of the peer review function within political parties and of public resistance to hollow men. Ardern is one example of where that leads you. Justin Trudeau is another. Barack Obama is another.
Laws prescribing abuse of dissidents are now bog standard in western countries. The ‘Conservative’ Party in Great Britain has had over a decade to repeal the odious legislation passed at the end of the Blair-Brown era and they’ve accomplished nothing. Now the ghastly regime in Ireland is trying to one-up them.
I stand firmly behind every person’s right to claim George Orwell was an American novelist.
Orcs are gaining ground. They won’t win.
The one who already conquered is allowing this separation, or rather a time of decision, to commence before the final scene.
So be it.
We stand firm, confident in His promises.
We do not compromise.

We must fight with words or we nothing will be left except fighting with arms.
I hope this awful woman inspires sufficient ire with her nightmare of benevolent serfdom that more and more will speak, will say no, will stand and say you will not silence me.
The Australian Federal Minister for Communication, Minister Michelle Rowland, has introduced a draft Bill into parliament which serves to control and ban “misinformation”. When a very prominent anti-abortion advocate who also happens to be a Professor of Law in Adelaide, Dr Joanna Howe questioned her on her official social media account about this draft Bill… Michelle Rowland blocked Dr Joanna Howe.
The Minister for “Communication” blocked a person whose comments she didn’t agree with. 😂
Dr Howe called her out on it on her own social media account and received 100,000’s of messages of support. Yep.
Controlling “misinformation” is the governments sneaky way of censoring speech which goes against their agenda. It’s becoming a common tactic of the left and gained momentum during Covid.
The good thing about social media (and it’s difficult sometimes to label social media “good”) is that it doesn’t matter who you are, you can call out the leaders and anyone in position of power and nobody can stop you. Well, not yet anyway.
By the way, Jacinda Ardern still popping her head up and speaking her mind gives a person intense migraines.
May need to double check the memes…. “American novelist”!!
He would throw his cup of tea against the wall to hear that.
Hadn’t noticed that! At least the quote is accurate.
It has often been said over the past 6 years under the Ardern Government that Orwell’s “1984” was being used by her as an instruction manual. Thank God this horrible woman resigned at the beginning of this year, but a male clone -Chris Hipkins took over from her, and nothing changed.
She tried to get a “Hate Speech” law passed a couple of years ago, but it died because of internal squabbling. In it’s place, there is a ‘Disinformation Project’ being run by some compliant & friendly media – fortunately they are mainly ignored, except by academics & woke journalists & politicians.
So we have elections here on the 14th. October, and that day cannot come fast enough. The polls are predicting a wipe out of the Labour/Greens/Maori Party coalition by the National/ACT (Association of Consumers & Taxpayers) coalition, but it is surprising how much support the Left/Socialists are still getting.
