DON’T LOOK NOW - BUT I THINK NEW ZEALAND HAS ENTERED A NEW ERA OF POLITICS - AND JUST MAYBE - IT IS SO SINISTER - WE COULD MAKE GLOBAL NEWS. - Denis Hall
I am an old geezer now - coming up 81 - and I forget stuff - like commas - but I also remember stuff.
I even remember Sid Holland.
Which reminds me; when I was a kid in the forties - I was taught about Tulip Hysteria in Holland - when for three years from 1634 to 1637 the Tulip market went insane - and resulted in many people losing fortunes.
Dumb as dirt! (I thought)
I was taught about Galileo - and how the Roman Catholic Inquisition arrested and tried and persecuted him in 1633 - when they disagreed with his pronouncement that the Earth revolved around the Sun. He was right - they were wrong - but they made his life a misery for telling the truth.
Imagine - being picked up by the Priests during the Inquisition.
I still remember being taught about things like McCarthyism - an hysteria that swept across the USA in the post war years and into the fifties - when any person with a slight left-wing bias was accused of being a Communist - and politically persecuted.
Yep - some people on the right can be ashamed of some things too.
All these things eventually evaporated in rather short passing of time - when they were at last called out for what they are – rubbish!
I also remember back in 1978 - when Jim Jones convinced 909 of his followers - 304 of them children - to drink the poisoned Koolade down there in Guyana - and die in a ditch.
All those people killed themselves because they believed him when he said Jesus was telling him what to do. He said he knew about salvation. This was his ideology at work - and ours in New Zealand is a bit nuts now too.
And there’s this - weirdly related to that:-
Repetition makes a FACT seem more true:- (Says the BBC on their website - and if you can’t see the problem of comprehension in that sentence - try harder.)
Okay - I’ll explain:- A fact is a fact - and can’t be more or less true - because a fact is just a fact - and there’s actually nowhere you can go with that - but maybe the BBC - like TVNZ and RNZ - thinks there is some room to move there.
The BBC also say this - in this same thing I read on their website - that doesn’t’ really matter to us - but it triggered me today. Here it is:-
“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”, is a law of propaganda often attributed to the Nazi Joseph Goebbels. The BBC invoked Nazis - not me.
(You can see I’m having fun with this – aye!)
The thing about Joseph Goebbels - is that he was Hitler’s Propaganda Minister. The Nazis perfected Propaganda - and we all have to remember:- the Nazi State that did so much damage to the Civilisation - was created on the fabric of Goebbels’ often repeated lies and Propaganda. They took over all media and told all the lies they wanted - no matter how far fetched - to the biggest available audience - and the German people believed the lies - - - and this is precisely what is happening now in New Zealand - and if you still watch TV news or listen to RNZ you will know that it is out of control Propaganda and lies - and that a lot of people still believe it.
Propaganda is king in New Zealand Media! Just is - and we all know it.
But there’s a rule of writing in the modern age - that says it’s a mistake to invoke Hitler or Nazism to reinforce an argument - because that is a way to ensure you won’t be taken seriously.
But - Nazism was an actual thing - and it happened while I was alive - and denying comparisons to it when a government does the same things - is just a modern convention based on never overstating anything.
So I’m going to try (just a little) not to use them as a way to draw attention to something going on in New Zealand politics and Media today. But like back in nineteen thirties Germany - the current New Zealand Government have taken total control of News and primary entertainment media - and even the slowest among us can recognise that TV One and TV three - and as a result of the Government’s $55,000,000 “Responsible Journalism Fund” - (about to turn into an annual grant of a $100,000,000) - Radio New Zealand - and TVNZ - have become purveyors of wall to wall propaganda.
Oh yes it is - watch the TV One News and see if you can sort the chaff from the propaganda.
And yep - I know you can see it when you watch the TV - so I won’t go on about it.
But - YOU HAVE TO KNOW - that behind the scenes it has taken another very dangerous and very sinister turn - reminiscent of the 1930s - in this headlong decent into totalitarian style Mass Media in New Zealand.
Radio New Zealand in particular - who know they have a predominately Left wing audience - have for almost a year now been pushing recently made up Maori Marxist re written History and propaganda - while simultaneously running a very nasty propaganda campaign vilifying, (in particular,) seven serious Academics and Professors for having the temerity to disagree with them.
They also hate the fact - that these Academics have voiced their disagreement with the concept of pre-European Maori “Science” being held in parity with the actual science that we all live with every day - and that the Civilisation is built on.
And we all know about that don't we? - - Civilisation I mean.
Radio New Zealand - have openly named and publicly attacked the following Academics - Kendall Clements, Garth Cooper, Michael Corballis, Douglas Elliffe, Elizabeth Rata, Emeritus Professor Robert Nola, and Emeritus Professor John Werry.
Oh yes they have!
I say - THEY ARE OUR SEVEN HEROS OF TRUTH!
I SAID SINISTER - AND I MEANT SINISTER? - That is EXACTLY what they were doing back then - just before World War Two - and they are doing it again today in of all places - NEW ZEALAND.
So we have without question entered a sinister era - when this government - with the enthusiastic help of the subversive activists at Radio New Zealand - and the Radio New Zealand management - are actively PERSUING - NAMING and PERSECUTING a group of Academics - who have dared to push back against two thing:- Leftist racist Ideology being enshrined in our history and in all our learning institutions:- And isolating and vilifying people in senior academic positions for disagreeing with them.
This is just like McCarthyism - and Nazism - and South Africa - and lunatic religious people who threaten people for not believing - and we New Zealanders - all have to disagree - and say so - in any forum you have access to.
DO IT!
We all remember that the Nazis persecuted the Jews - not centuries ago - but IN MY LIFETIME - but it was not just the Jews - it was EVERYONE WHO DISAGREED WITH THEM.
That could be YOU in future New Zealand - if you don’t have the courage to SPEAK UP!
That is where the New Zealand Government is heading - and there is a risk - that the National Party will win the election - and then - because they have very little courage and not much integrity any more - they might decide to just sit on the fence on these matters.
But this is the time when we desperately need them to show some courage - and step up - and say something about this!
It’s just abut integrity people!
I hope - that the moment of change is at hand - and that it will be in the hands of the good people of New Zealand to bring change.
We have to stand up and show these charlatans that we know what is going on.
THIS NATION IS IN TROUBLE - AND WE NEED TO PULL THE SAILS IN AND CHANGE DIRECTION NOW!
Too late - will be too late - and THAT - is in fact a FACT.
Come on NEW ZEALANDERS - the nasty political ideologies of the thirties - and the separatism and the division of today that comes with it - needs to be rejected NOW!
For God’s sake say something - and do something.
AND SEND THEM A MESSAGE!
