When I warned Woke Identity Politics activists in 2018 to stop attacking Free Speech by cancelling Don Brash and Crypto-fascists Southern/Molyneux, I was doing so from a perspective that the woke identity politics activists had no comprehension of the political backlash they could inspire by waking the dormant political fault line of ACT.
In early 2018 ACT polled .7%.
After the woke identity politics activists attacked free speech, ACT soared in popularity and are now polling 9%!
Fucking woke identity politics activists!
We all build our own mountains of education from quarries of ignorance to give us oversight and insight to the world around us, and from where I am sitting, we are now feeding the extremism that will generate political violence in NZ.
My argument as to why we urgently needed to de-escalate the Dumb Lives Matter protests on Parliament Lawns were basically boiled down to 3 points.
1 – These angry and frightened Lumpenproletariat wouldn’t be so easily manipulated by Bad Faith Far Right Fascists if we on the Left had actually been economically and materially transformative in the first place.
2 – We risked radicalising protestors into political violence.
3 – The State Security apparatus would immediately pounce on such a threat and demand a ratcheting up of powers and resources which would begin to feed the hate loop of State repression and further radicalisation.
I think the first is true and the following two points we are manifesting now.
I argued the arrest of the Counterspin duo was poorly conceived and a knee jerk reaction by Humpty Dumpty cops spooked into ‘doing something’ by Stuff’s middle class propaganda Fire and Fury docudrama.
For arguing this was counterproductive, the Wellington Woke Twitteratti piled on and claimed I was supporting fascists.
The dangerous CounterSpin Duo have now opted for a Jury trial which they will successfully turn into a publicity stunt and recruit more to these ill conceived charges, just like I said would happen…
Founders of far right media platform Counterspin opt for trial by jury
The co-founders of a far right disinformation group charged with distributing objectionable material have elected to have a trial by jury.
Kelvyn Alp, 51, and Hannah Spierer, 37, were expected to make their second appearance in the Christchurch District Court on Wednesday to enter a plea on charges of distributing an objectionable publication.
Instead, the couple addressed waiting supporters on the court steps, with Alp saying they had “filed papers which would allow them to have a trial by jury”. The courts confirmed an election of jury trial.
…wow, the exact fucking thing I warned would happen is happening!
The immediate threat of political violence comes from the far right. The QAnon movement in NZ is disconnected from this dimension of reality, they believe in Sovereign Citizen Sherifs who are ’empowered’ to hang enemies of free people. They are fucking lunatics who are capable and philosophically compelled to commit an act of political violence. Add to them far right white supremacist bad faith actors and Alt-Right extremists and you have radicalisation combining with fear grifters to generate a febrile landscape of existential fears that can only be combated by justified political violence.
Out of this cauldron of self loathing and projected cultural hate is the possibility of a lone wolf actor or small cell group committing an attack on a Politician…
A Bay of Plenty conspiracy theorist who allegedly threatened to kill Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern remains on the run six months after being arrested by armed police.
Richard Trevor Sivell, now 40, was arrested during a raid of a Te Puke address on March 29.
The police operation was filmed by a nearby associate of Sivell’s, showing a row of police cars outside the property where Sivell was living, including multiple officers armed with rifles.
He was charged with threatening to kill, related to an alleged threat made against Ardern online, with the details of the threat currently subject to a suppression order. The charge carries a maximum penalty of seven years imprisonment.
…ultimately the only winner here is the domestic state intelligence apparatus. The sudden need to police and use mass surveillance to control and monitor internal political dissent in the wake of an attack on a politician from far right protagonists will be immense and we already see the woke demanding new hate speech laws.
We haven’t seen radicalisation like this on a mass basis before and with economic conditions set to only get far worse, the triggers for political violence extremism are already smouldering.

Just another unintended consequence of the dumbfuckery that as widespread mandates.
That and the willful demonization of otherwise good people lead by govt cheered on by Stuff etc.
Remember the KFC worker? The woman that went to Northland.
Reap what you sow.
Kevin Alp and the idiot with him were nasty fruitcakes long before mandates came along, as were the Canadian drop kicks that came here. It’s completely misleading to say COVID created all of this (granted it hasn’t helped), and seems to be a convenient way of some people blaming Arden for everything. Their the same people who accuse others of being state dependent or not being able to think for themselves, unless it’s Arden related then it’s all her being divisive. How we treat each other is not up to the government( the current one so divisive it won in a canter).
Sure, but mandates and the rush to cast the non compliant handed them the audience.
If the ruling uniparty could stop s**ting on the working classes for even one minute, it would be very difficult for the moronic ‘populists’ of ACT, Counterspin Media, and their ilk to get any traction.
That would only require someone in National or Labour to have some morality, or more likely common sense. Won’t happen, of course.
Right. I’m getting Bomber to choose my Lotto numbers!
