Strategy I Tried to Defend New Zealand from Being Torn Apart by EndTheMandates (facebook.com)

Basic plan to defend NZ from getting torn apart by EndTheMandates was by replacing the effective leadership in the country with the leading epidemiologist most sympathetic to the cause of the unvaccinated. Protip.


Atm it looks like it might be Micheal Baker.


All done now. A left wing defense.. of the right.


For those wondering why I did this, I believe I saw an unambiguous example of left wing ideology being used to cover up a powerful display of oppression, so I felt morally obliged to destroy it.


Whether the rest of the story holds water is for the rest of society to figure out. This is the part we on the left can help with. We can demonstrate the distance we're willing to go to figure out the truth here.


I shied away from the police violence videos, and snuck them in quietly later, because mainly I wanted to establish the _innocence_ of the protest, which is key for showing the _inaccuracy_ of it's mainstream media representation, and the _absurdity_ of the parliamentary response. The police are not the enemies here, and I didn't want to inflame things too much. I'm trying to get this done in an orderly fashion.


And just so we're clear, I'm not posting anything on NZ reddit atm. That is someone else who has heard me and understands _exactly_ the game we're in here. I expect that we may not agree on politics, but we agree on democracy, so kudos to their effort on that platform.


I believe this is an act of subversion, if this kind of thing is annoying anyone.
