This Kid Gets It
A friend’s teen drew this for our kids. She’s not going to be one of the sheeple! We need more people like the yellow shirted woman below!
Sums it Up Nicely
I have been told to take a new drug (three times), for a variant it wasn’t designed for, from a company I don’t trust and for a new disease that we still don’t fully understand. And I’m told it is totally safe by politicians whom I rarely believe, who don’t care and refuse to listen or debate the evidence. – Tim Ordei

Under Shepherds, Represent the Great Shepherd
Some readers of Sojournal may be disappointed that for months now we have moved away from our typical content and focussed on issues covid, particularly the mandates and the tyranny that is being imposed on a once free people. I make no apology for this. Nor are words like tyranny out of place, contrary to the opinions of well-meaning friends who think I’ve gone off the deep end. I am not a slave, and I will not be dictated to by a deity grasping state about what I will put in my body. To hell with that. And I mean that quite literally – that grasping authoritarianism is reminiscent of the evil one himself and clearly signals its diabolical origins. So covid dominates, because this is the issue of our time. This is where the battle currently is, and to ignore it is a dereliction of duty for those who claim to be followers of the king. Unfortunately in too many churches in New Zealand, covid and the issues arising from it have been studiously ignored and ‘spiritual’ matters focussed on. All hell (literally) seems to be breaking loose in our little country, and many under-shepherds of Christ seem content to lull the sheep into a false sense of security rather than train them up for battle and prepare for persecution. Some have even joined the enemy.

For a long time I’ve been aware of the role media has in shaping public opinion. I remember the lead-up to the anti-smacking bill, civil unions and the more recent homosexual ‘marriage’ law and the cannabis referendum in 2020. Mainstream papers and television news blatantly promote their views and fashion their reporting to create their desired narrative. What’s more disconcerting than this fact is that so many Kiwis are hoodwinked by it, thinking they are getting largely unbiased ‘news’.
Unfortunately, our prostituted media have outdone themselves through the Covid ‘pandemic’. The insistence on calling anyone opposed to the covid vaccine or the government’s no jab no job rules ‘anti-vaxxers’ and almost daily smears against the unvaccinated combined with their attempts to underreport numbers at anti mandate protests or describe the protestors as far-right or white supremacists has, unfortunately, had its effect on the compliant Kiwi population. Sometimes the claims are just plain ridiculous. Just why the Maori ‘community’ would be interested in white supremacy I fail to understand. Perhaps our leaders are insinuating Maori are stupid and need a maternalistic state making sure racists don’t encourage them to make medical decisions for themselves. But the only stupid ones are those who believe and take on board these ridiculous smears without investigating for themselves.
Which brings us to the National Party of New Zealand. What a disgrace. You would think that we would have leaders intelligent enough to see through the government propaganda. But no. Men like Luxon seem to promise nothing more than more competent authoritarianism. “Labour is driving New Zealand over a cliff at 100km/h. Vote for us, we’ll spend less on the car, slow things to 50, and make sure everyone has their seat belts on!”

A little late, but better late than never!
I’d do it for my dog
I don’t know if this is a common saying or not, but in my family, we used to say, “I’d do it for my dog,” when someone queried why we did something nice for them that we didn’t regard as particularly special. Well, I thought of this quote when I saw this Department of Conservation post on Facebook the other day.
DOC is according privileges to dogs that they won’t to unvaccinated human beings. Way to go DOC. Perhaps they can extend the ‘dogs allowed’ campgrounds idea to ‘filthy unvaccinated vermin allowed’ campgrounds. After all, they’d do it for their dogs.
Irrational Fear
Propaganda works. It really does. For near enough to two years, we have had covid (deliberately non-capitalised, as I do not deign to give it a capital like it is some kind of deity) splashed across our screens non-stop day in day out. And this has taken its toll on everyone, but particularly the weak-minded and emotionally unstable. These poor petals are scared stiff of covid. They think our government has done us a favour by locking us up like prisoners and treating us as their slaves by forcibly vaccinating us. They believe the propaganda, not backed up by science, that the unvaccinated pose a huge risk to them and ought to be shut out from civil society.
Once again, the New Zealand Herald, part of the government harem of media whores, continues to spread fear through ignorant and emotionally unstable women. While I should not need to add a rider to the previous sentence, for the sake of the overly sensitive, note we are not talking about all women. We are talking about ignorant and unstable women. This is a subset of women which incidentally includes not a few men! There are plenty of women who are fighting valiantly on the side of freedom at the moment. Take for instance the women behind VFF.
But policy of late has been dictated by the fearful and those who would mother us to death. Last week we had a precious mother who was up in arms about an unvaccinated young man passing on covid to her daughter who then proceeded to get a cough and a runny nose. This week we are presented with ‘Kaye’ another ‘useful idiot‘ in the government’s media-aided campaign of fear. She has epilepsy and therefore is forced to use public transport. She is terrified that when covid spreads she will be at risk from the unvaccinated who are using public transport. This could trigger a seizure. Kaye is angry that she is ‘put in this position.’ It seems like many other scared witless New Zealanders, she would be quite happy to see the unvaccinated banned from yet another aspect of public life. But while insufferable self-righteous petals like Kaye winge on about the position they’ve been put in, there are families who have lost their livelihoods due to government tyranny. There are people who struggle to find a place to rent because our government has introduced a new apartheid. But poor dear Kaye, she has to share public transport with members of the public she doesn’t want to share with. They should be forced to move out of the white clean section of the bus to the coloured unclean one or better still, they should not be allowed on at all – the filthy Jews vermin. Little do foolish women like Kaye care for the fact that vaccinated people can also pass on the virus, and indeed given that one needs to be vaccinated or have a negative test to fly these days, all of the omicron cases in New Zealand at this point in time are most likely vaccinated people. Our own Ministry of Health pointed out that when vaccination coverage is high, (above 80%) transmission is more likely to occur from a vaccinated than an unvaccinated individual. But Kaye and other hysterical attention-seeking drones will not let the facts get in the way of their 15 minutes of media fame.
Finally, take Janine who rang Kerre McIvor’s talkback show on Newstalk ZB. Janine is clearly terrified of the virus. She believes that many more would have died if our government hadn’t taken the disastrous approach that it has, and wants us all to be grateful for the way we have been ‘looked after’ by our government. I agree with Kerre. Who wants to be looked after by the government? If looking after is taking away the livelihoods of my friends and colleagues through endless lockdowns or because they have the temerity to make medical choices for themselves then I don’t want to be looked after. I actually think I can do a far better job of running my life than they can. I’ve got along quite nicely without the government thus far thank you very much. Besides, why would you trust these incompetent clowns to look after you? After all, they promised to fix the housing issue and instead have overseen a median house price rise of $395,000. Their KiwiBuild policy was supposed to supply 100,000 houses over 10 years. Stuff reported in May last year that at their current rate they would take 400 years to achieve this goal. For a list of broken promises from their first term, see a useful summary here. Whatever they touch they ruin. These are the incompetent idiots that unstable and fearful chicken littles sitting at home watching the one o’clock daily press conferences and the six o’clock news trust to ruin our lives. Again I ask, would you trust these people to run a booze-up in a brewery, let alone our health system, our education system, our housing and infrastructure, media and our very lives? What we need in New Zealand is a movement toward freedom. Hopefully, what we are seeing is the beginning of this. Less government, more individual independence and freedom. God did not make us to be slaves of a tyrannical and out of control prissy mother with delusions of deity attempting to treat us like a school prefect would third form students.
What do we need to do? Get the fearful and emotionally unstable women of both sexes out of decision-making positions. We cannot lead our society with fear. We must have leaders of hope and vision who will encourage (give courage) to our citizens and lead us toward freedom and prosperity without meddling in our lives like anxious mothers trying to prevent Johnny from getting a scraped knee. We don’t want to be the societal equivalent of a 30-year-old son stuck at home under his domineering mother’s loving care.
