    If this was a climate protest Taxcinda would be saying it’s a mandate for change....

    First time they have locked doors of parliament they are that scared of the “smallest” protest ever outside.....
    It’s unusual for all of an affected group to protest so any time you get a reasonable size group show up it shows your not just dealing with a small fringe group. It shows a reasonable part of the population has issues with elements or part thereof in new laws or changes. The spin on this will be a Masterclass in propoganda to listen to.
    My guess as to why the security is so tight would be that the reasons behind the protest are a mostly irrational, internet-driven overreaction.

    You can't reason with people who won't listen to reason. It's extremely depressing to watch.

    Looking at the protest, how many there are damning the Government while collecting benefit money from that same government every week?

    It shows how misinformed people are that they are more afraid of the vaccine than the virus. The virus doesn't care. It will seek.them out. And the dicks who spread that misinformation will never stop to consider their cunty actions.

    On RNZ this morning: A team of academics have been studying the spread of Covid-19 untruths since February last year, to help improve science communication.

    Noted that white supremists are posting using language to encourage Maori not to get vaccinated, while at the same time blaming Maori for spreading the virus. https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/progr...ject-has-found

    I'm quite curious to see the data used for that assessment.

    That assessment could be applied to any of the recent Protests....

    But it does show that there is one standard of behaviour for 'approved' protests (BLM, Climate change etc.)
    And a completely different standard of behaviour for verboten protests (Anything outside the Left-wing milieu)

    Indeed...

    Which is why people are protesting the Government because they aren't listening to reason

    No disrespect to RNZ or to either her or Wallace, I don't think she will be going into line-by-line detail on the Data on a Radio show.

    I'm skeptical of the Claim, first and foremost because quite simply I don't think 'White Supremecists' are capable of that level of Grand Deception....

    Yeah they all pretty stupid. To articulate that a lunatic fringe minority group could influence the decisions of people that’s would despise them the most could only be a desperate invented lie of lunatic leftist ideology.

    But that’s all they got when their policies and ideas are soley based on race and gender.

    Prob not too many as the vaccine mandate cements their free paycheck. Most would be teachers and healthcare workers affected by latest update.
    Dont forget via working for families a large portion of nz get a “ handout”

    To be fair though, they have been championing the use of face masks for some time.

    And the big group on their high power motorcycles doing wheelies.


    Fortunately the reports changed to give more the impression through pictures that they looked like gang members rather than real bikers.
