Sorry seems to be the hardest word

1 Comment

I walk around now biting my tongue. There are dozens of people of my acquaintance who elicit an almost reflex action in me. “I told you so!” would be the easiest thing to say. It would be cathartic. But it’s not polite. It’s hard to forgive someone for being right. Especially when they rub it in. So I keep my mouth shut and write instead.

But for goodness sake. If you were one of the naive dupes, with newly minted qualifications in immunology at the university of the world wide web waxing eloquent on the reduced viral load of those vaccinated, or piously spouting off that it was loving your neighbour to get the vaccine; if you were one of those using false guilt to manipulate people into getting vaccinated, if you were one of the ones who used your vaccine passports because you wanted to ‘do the right thing’ and keep away from the disease-ridden unvaccinated, if you were a church ‘shepherd’ who exiled your sheep from church instead of protecting them from the wolves or if you are a health professional who in your hubris used the letters after your name as a stick to batter those you consider ignorant rubes into vaccine submission, jolly well do the decent thing and apologise.

You were wrong, but not only were you wrong, you attempted to foist your error and facile childlike faith in a godlike state on the rest of the world. You wanted there to be no other gods but the state and no prophet but the mainstream media. You were not content to live and let live. You took part in the totalitarian covid order. And because you did, and because so many others did, you caused ordinary people like me who were sceptical of the vaccine to lose their livelihoods. You caused us to be cut off from society for months. You caused some to lose their life savings and the society you enabled led to suicides. And in your religious fervour in promoting an experimental vaccine approved for emergency use that you somehow knew was safe and effective, you have cost people their health and some, their lives. You have not loved your neighbour. In the name of loving your neighbour, you showed hatred and contempt towards an unprotected minority.

Perhaps you say, “But this was all an unfortunate necessity. We had to protect the vulnerable. By getting the vaccine we were stopping transmission and protecting others.” Absolute bosh. If you can still believe this after all this time, there is little hope for you. Look around you! Was it just a pandemic of the unvaccinated? Did the vaccine stop transmission of the virus like you sanctimoniously told us as we got fired and barred from society? Because that was why you shut us out of society and mandated us out of our jobs wasn’t it? Did that system protect people? Did the passport system stop the spread? Did the vaccinated escape COVID? Or what about Jacinda’s whopper; “People who are vaccinated will still get Covid-19 it just means that they won’t get sick and they won’t die.” Was this true?

July 2022 NZ

Regarding deaths, it’s hard to get good current information, but for the period May 22 – July 16 in New South Wales, despite 83% of the population being at least double-vaccinated, they accounted for 99.4, 96.3 and 85.4 per cent, respectively, of NSW Covid hospital admission, ICU and deaths.

Oh. Yeah. You were wrong. The vaccine is crap.

Did you ever stop to think about how we were telling you all this would happen before it did? Did you ever wonder? Are we clairevoyants? Was it just a lucky guess? Or is there just a certain amount of wisdom in being sceptical about what the most transparent government ever tells you? Perhaps investigating data coming out of countries who were ahead of us on the vaccine rollout enabled us to predict months ahead what was going to happen here? Were we less gullible and less swayed by fear and mass hysteria? Yes.

Am I being too strong? Well for those of you who are still just watching, reading or listening to the Labour party’s media arm otherwise known as the New Zealand mainstream media, here is some recent worldwide news that might hopefully cause you to offer apologies to those you wronged during the pandemic.

July

  • The German authorities admitted to serious adverse events attributable to 1 in 5000 doses

August

  • Thai study found that 29% of 13-18 year-olds in study registered cardiovascular effects after the vaccine

September

  • Denmark stopped offering the mRNA vaccines for under 18s and then later to healthy individuals under 50

October

  • Norway says no healthy people under 65 should have additional vaccines
  • Florida State Surgeon General Joseph A. Ladapo now recommends men under 40 avoid mRNA vaccinations due to an 84% increase in the relative incidence of cardiac-related death
  • All around the Western world, where mRNA vaccinations were promoted heavily, there is now a worrying trend of excess deaths

And finally, another nail in the coffin.

This was the basis of the justification for vaccine passports and vaccine mandates. Yet the vaccine was never tested for this before being released. Nevertheless, ‘experts’, our prime minister and other influential people including so-called health experts lied to us saying the vaccines prevented transmission. Now we know they clearly don’t. Mandates and passports were not about health. They were about punishing those who dared to question the nonsense.

Many have seen through the bollocks for a long time. We thought the truth would come out a lot sooner. But look, covid is over. The lies are being exposed and the truth will out. With every month that passes, the vaccines look worse and worse and our scepticism more and more justified. We were right, but don’t hold that against us. Screw up some courage and show some moral decency by apologising to those in your circle of family and acquaintances who you hurt through your actions or inaction.

The National Jellyfish

Here at the Sojournal we have been suspicious of Luxon from the beginning. Claiming to be a Christian, he has regularly exhibited jellyfish-like tendencies – a lack of a spine, and a willingness to drift with the current. (Other articles on Luxon are here, here and here.) His latest folly comes a day after Christians and conservatives the world over are celebrating the best bit of news we’ve had for a long time: Roe v Wade being overturned. Simon O’Connor, posted the following on his Facebook page which sad death-loving leftists took umbridge with.

Luxon forced O’Connor to take the post down because, and I quote “it was causing distress and does not represent the position of the National Party.” In this Luxon demonstrates once again that he is an unprincipled coward. To care more for the distress of some trauma queens over the loss of a ‘right’ to dismember babies more than the tens of millions of dead bodies that Roe v Wade has led to shows a broken moral compass. Woe to those who call evil good and good evil. And the first step to calling evil good, is refusing to celebrate good or castigate evil.

What the overturning of Roe v Wade has demonstrated is that Christians can impact culture through smart politics. For too long, many pietistic Christians have personalised their faith and shunned things like politics because our personal faith in Jesus is more important and politics is dirty. As important as that personal faith is, we have been commanded to make disciples of the nations and teach these disciples to obey all that Christ commanded. What’s sad, is a man like Trump, who does not seem to have lived any sort of Christian life is responsible for a major change like this, but a man who claims to be a Christian like Luxon, can’t even let a fellow Christian celebrate it. Christians can and should be involved in seeing Christ’s rule and reign extended. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem that we can expect National to enact godly law while it is led by such a jellyfish. My encouragement to all Christians is to give up on National at the next election. This man is not the leader we are looking for. He lacks courage and conviction and is focused on gaining power at any cost without holding to any real principles. In this he represents no real change from Jacinda Ardern.

Self-Awareness 0 Hypocrisy 1

The lack of self-awareness of some of the left is just gob-stopping.

Thus says the pink-haired woman who supported forced masking, vaccine passports and mandated vaccination that affected so many New Zealanders. We have just had two years of religious zealots such as her ruining our lives, livelihoods and our country’s economy all in the name of supposedly saving lives. But dare we on the right actually try saving lives by…I don’t know… stopping the murder of innocent babies, we are religious zealots who are taking people’s rights away.

The right to take innocent human life is no right at all despite what the demons from hell and their servants on earth might think on the matter. Interestingly enough, like so many of her ilk, she’s not willing to hear from the other side. Only those she mentions and follows can reply. Because there is no argument for abortion. You either are against it, or you are committed to an evil atrocity and both history and Christ will judge you for it.

Then we have our childish prime minister adding her deep ‘wisdom’ on the issue. She boasts of our country’s recent shame of turning the murder of innocent unborn children into a ‘health’ issue. Then without stopping to wash the blood from her hands, she sanctimoniously mounts her high horse to speak to the people. The overturning of Roe v Wade according to her facile approach is about the personal convictions of some robbing others of the right to make their own decisions.

Wow. Another silly leftist woman so full of hubris that she can’t see her own hypocrisy. How dare this woman lecture on this topic? How dare she talk about personal beliefs infringing on the rights of people to make their own decisions? You forced almost an entire country to get vaccinated, many against their will and at threat of the loss of livelihood with an experimental vaccine. Stop talking. You have no moral right to wax eloquent about not robbing people of their right to choose.

Thank goodness both these women are on the wane. The sooner they are gone from public life, the better for our country. God protect us from godless and meddling women.

Supreme dictator for life until the oppressed kick her out office; Jacinda Ardern has waded into the fight over Bethelehem College’s statement of faith declaring marriage to be between a man and a woman. Ardern said she takes the “very simple” view that schools in New Zealand are obliged to ensure that they have a safe and inclusive environment for all children. I guess she means kinda like the safe and inclusive New Zealand she created under vaccine apartheid where the dirty vermin who chose not to take an experimental vaccine were thrown out from their jobs and prevented from taking part in civic life. She’s all for safe and inclusive. You’ll be safe and included as long as you do what you’re told and believe what she tells you to believe.

Brief Thoughts on the Lay of the Land

It’s been obvious to all but the most panicked and fearful that the foolishness of the last couple of years has worn itself out. Even apologists for the government’s authoritarian actions earlier in the shamdemic are critiquing the validity of mandates in an omicron environment while still sanctimoniously congratulating themselves on having supported the control health measures, and ‘loved their neighbour’ through their support of state coercion of citizens to be vaccinated. They rest in the self-righteous knowledge that they have helped save New Zealand.

Except that they haven’t. Sure people weren’t dying of covid when we were all locked in our homes for weeks on end and refusing to let people visit our island nation. But what’s happened since the arrival of omicron? Their god the state through its Messiah figure Ardern promised salvation from covid damnation through the sacraments of masks and vaccination. But like all false gods, this one has failed miserably, much to the mirth of the true God (Psalm 2). Only the truly naive and self-deceived can believe that this has all been worth it. Rampant inflation is one of many signs that God is not mocked. Idolatry always ends badly.

The cracks in the dam are showing

The end of the Covid nightmare seems in sight. The sceptics are being proved right, and more and more people are waking up to the injustice of the government’s authoritarian response these last couple of years. The Convoy, and subsequent police brutality and politicians’ disdainful dismissal of genuine grievances has been the combustible material that will bring more to Wellington in support of the convoy and maintain the pressure on our corrupt and cowardly politicians.

Jacinda’s dismissal of the protestors as “not representative of the vast majority of New Zealanders” is only likely to push more enraged people into protests. We have seen with our own eyes packed motorway bridges. Our telegram channels have been inundated with videos from real people, not media with a set perspective to push. We are not 70-year old nanas ready and willing to believe what the nice people on the news serve up to us each night about those nasty anti-vaxxers who don’t care if everyone dies.

Mainstream Media – Useless or Liars?

2 Comments

On Sunday I took my family to one of the motorway overbridges to take a look at the Convoy protestors passing by. I was pleased to see other happy Kiwis and their kids flying New Zealand flags, holding anti mandate and pro-freedom signs, laughing and having a good time while passers-by tooted support. The atmosphere was festive and jovial aside from the odd aggressive motorist who gestured how many brain cells they had or voiced their low opinion of freedom with profanities despite the obvious presence of young children.

Though the protest has been building as it has made its way down from the North and up from Bluff, little attention has been paid to it by the media. The attention that has been shown is designed to turn naive media consumers against the protestors. A short clip on TV showed some people flying Trump flags on one bridge – I have seen lots of footage of this event and this is the only bridge I saw Trump flags on. But because our completely neutral media has trained some segments of the population to go rabid when they even get a whiff of Trump much like Pavlov managed to get dogs to salivate at the sound of a bell, those scenes were enough to turn a number against the protestors. Propaganda has a strong effect on the weak-minded.

As the convoy continued its way toward Wellington, more organisations began to mention them. Naturally numbers were played down. People were framed as crazies. Today we had this from the objective reporters sitting behind their keyboards and watching their Twitter feeds.

We have a convoy of vehicles. Apparently, it has attracted hundreds of people in up to 1000 vehicles. Yes..really. Not sure how that works.

Those out on the bridges, those who got stuck in the traffic, and those standing on the mainstreets of towns throughout the country cheering on the protestors know that this is big, even if our mainstream media are looking the other way. Tech is on our side. We can share our videos and information. We don’t need these clowns to frame the story for us.

And so, at a certain point, like now, as the protestors all arrive in Wellington, it becomes harder to lie to the people. So the article changes. Unless you happened to have a screenshot of the original wording, you might never know. It’s like the memory hole in 1984.

Now there are hundreds of cars, in fact up to 1000 vehicles and several thousand on Parliament’s lawn. Never mind all the thousands of people who have been out in support over the last few days in every town, suburb, and motorway bridge.

So what can they do now? Back to the old tactic of smearing these protestors. Karen, sorry Carol wound down her window to give the thumbs down to free choice and freedom and someone apparently threw a can to her side of the road which caused her to feel unsafe. The protest organisers have made it clear that the protest is to be peaceful, so this is not endorsed if it even happened. But Karen, dear Karen; we feel unsafe living among fascists like you who think it is perfectly acceptable for a government to force people like us to be vaccinated against our will.

Do we have anyone interviewed from the protest to give information about what they are protesting about? Don’t be silly, that would take effort and some semblance of objectivity. To be fair, a woman who saw the protest drive through was reported as saying it was huge and took 45 minutes to pass.

We are then told Ardern is too busy to come and talk to the protestors. Too busy to see the people to whom she supposedly ministers and whose lives she has destroyed with her policies over the past couple of years. Too busy? Too scared! That spineless jellyfish Luxon also is refusing to show. Not only that he has made it clear he does not want his MPs to attend either. Why? Because he is pro-vaccination and thinks the mandates are fine at this point in time. In other words, when enough the current finally moves to see them as wicked and evil, jellyfish Luxon will float that way too. Right now, there are thousands of unrepresented Kiwis looking for a leader. And Luxon, you’re not him.

Game Plan? Be the Crazy Prophet Guy

Lately I’ve been thinking about how we get out of this mess. Sure Ardern is dropping in popularity – surprisingly slowly given her government’s incompetence and wickedness. I think part of the problem is that so many Kiwis have bought the “Health Issue” narrative, and because they have done everything they have been told, they are relatively unaffected. Unfortunately, many of these ordinary Kiwis think they are getting a balanced and fair representation of the state of things when they switch on the 6 o’clock news or read Stuff. Before scoffing at their naivety, which let’s admit it, would be cathartic, we should consider how to wake these Kiwis up. We don’t want a third consecutive year ruined by these authoritarian tyrants.

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.
