Boycott New Zealand

Hearing from my sisters back home still, they so appreciate the support from the UK. You can imagine what it’s like for a bunch of Maori women, long time activists and some elderly, being called Nazis in the media ( and here ). They’re very distressed and the support here is comfort to them. Please can the derailers stop referring to Posie and these women as far right. It’s absolutely not true. They’ve been fighting the far right all their lives.

I have family and friends in New Zealand and have visited several times. I have always found it an unsettling place because the projected image of a progressive-minded paradise is very quickly dispelled when you're there. It's a society that's decided to identify as progressive but the anger and resentment and misogyny is lurking just under the shiny surface.

In the 90s there was a major satanic panic that gripped much of the country:
https://www.webworm.co/p/satanicpanic and no one seems to have learned from that.

There's a macho culture (even in my university-educated extended family over there the assumption is that women will have children and be SAHM while the men have careers) and small-town rural pressure to fit in and not be different in case you get picked on.

@Whaeanui I just want to say I am sorry Māori women are having to deal with this. Thank you for your posts, they have been extremely informative. I hope you all still have the ability to stand up and speak, it is not Māori women who should be carrying the burden of disgrace here and the blame for what happened is only on the people who conducted themselves in such an aggressive and hostile way and those that condone it. Women across the world can see that even if it’s not evident at home yet. You are all such brave women.

Okay let us know when the list is ready, Whaeanui, and we can message you.
I know you are busy, and heartsore, so please don't rush.

Just goes to show the rabid impact of social media globally.

True. Anyone can message me saying they’d like the list. It’ll take me a few days.

A list of indigenous businesses to support is such a great idea. I do fear however, drawing a mob upon their heads if the list is published on here, this board is monitored very closely.

Exactly.

But then Germany are also doing the same just like they did with Russia. They really do not learn.

Alondra did you look at the links of violence against women

Why doesn’t a woman being punched in the face concern you?

Jacinda Ardern, is every woke 'be kind' men's sexual rights asvicate woman on social media, teaching your child in school, nursing your Granny in the NHS and policing an event called 'Let women speak' where the NZ women we all wanted to hear aren't allowed to speak, they are drowned out, punched repeatedly and liquid thrown on them.

These woke women are the definition of male worshoppers as if these males are their God, like ye olde Pagan human sacrafices, they sacrificed other women in the hope it saves them, it won't, their turn will come.

Shall we get back to the topic of the thread and ignore the racists calling a bunch of Maori women far right extremists?

they should of gone to the other thread about the tour, the one with all the video evidence of violence, if they wanted to deny it.

this thread is about who you want to boycott. I could get a list together with my friends on some indigenous businesses to support instead?

What’s this now

posters here defending violence against women. Because they deserved it ?

You have probably seen the videos of what actually happened, but you pretend otherwise and minimise and justify it. You are despicable.

They probably have and still excuse male violence against women.

Oh they don’t care about Muslim women in NZ. Sure they all put on a hijab after the horrific Christchurch incident but they don’t really care or they’d realise Muslim women can’t share spaces with males so will eventually not have access to spaces and sports because of this.

What else do you call a large group who have broken down barriers and are physically attacking women and children while screaming obscenities?

Then why don’t you hop on over to one and try walking around unaccompanied by a male and with your head uncovered. ( obviously not every Middle East country)

No worry lines, crumpled sad face and headscarf for the Chinese Muslims in Chinese re-education camps or the women in NZ including a 70 year old woman repeatedly punched and KJK.

Watch this and tell me you are Ok with it.

I would defend any group's right to a peaceful counter-protest. But that is not what happened.

I would condemn any group, whether I agreed with their ideas or not, that shouted down people trying to speak peacefully, intimidated speakers, and punched people in the face.

You’re OK with these signs @Alondra?

The point of " Let Women speak" is to give a platform for women to speak. Local women, indigenous women, older women, younger women, all sorts of women. That you are proud to have denied that does not speak much for your so called progressive cause. You don't counter arguments with violence, you counter them with debate.

Posie Parker is an extreme right wing ideologist

You can keep saying it. It doesn’t make it true.

She was invited by wahine Māori to speak, and to give other woman a platform to speak.

Why not let her speak and argue back? What are you afraid of @Alondra?

Can you evidence this claim with her own words?
