Can violent activists please stop giving ACT political ammunition?

Thankfully with all the virus news, this news story hasn’t been picked up much by the media…

Facebook post inciting violence against politicians subject of police investigation

A post on Facebook calling for civil disobedience and attacks on offices of politicians has emerged two weeks after attacks on an Auckland restaurant following an Act Party event.

One Eden Bistro staff member has resigned and others continue to feel unsafe following two attacks after Act leader David Seymour delivered his state of the nation address there on Waitangi Day.

The post by a Leonidas Spartan called on “brave patriots” to “send a message to this corrupt govt system that the revolution has started”.

Police said they were aware of the Facebook post and are looking into it.

The two attacks occurred on the weekend after it hosted an Act Party function on Waitangi Day, where Seymour spoke out against firearms law, the persecution of landlords and the “hate speech regime”.

…whatever moron is posting this…

…needs to get a spellchecker and appreciate that violent action against ACT only boosts their free speech crusade, it doesn’t stop it!

Could activists PLEASE stop giving ACT bloody ammunition!

ACT are on their way to 3% by telling right wing voters the woke are coming for their free speech, add violence on top of that and ACT might breach the 5% threshold all on their own!

I get Right wing politics is angering, but the moment you start intimidating people who are championing free speech – YOU become the Goon! YOU become the danger! YOU become the threat!

This plays so well into ACTs narrative that the woke are trying to steal your free speech that part of me suspects they are shooting this restaurant themselves!

Comrades, this isn’t political activism, it’s counterproductive madness.
