from the Redbaiter–

Ardern says she felt “despair” at the news of Russia’s Ukraine invasion. She more likely did one of her little dances of glee, for if ever she needed a political diversion, she needs it now.

Under pressure on vaccine mandates, rising poverty, inflation and debt, Three Waters and He Puapua (separate Maori government) Putin’s adventure in the Ukraine was a heaven send for the increasingly faltering PM.

Should Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine matter to NZers? There may be unwelcome effects (like high energy prices), but there is still not a damn thing we can do about it.

Nanaia Mahuta was appointed Foreign Affairs Minister not only because she was a Maori woman, but because she was a Maori woman who thought the “right” way.

In fact there is not much any Western country can do about it. Because we’re broken. After decades of “progressive” government decay, we’re weak, divided and poverty stricken, and in no shape to enter a war, even if it was warranted.

Additionally, we’ve suffered endless anti-Western brainwashing that has reduced most of our fighting age males to nail biting neurotics who see their main function in life as being doormats for the Marxist feminists who now hold most of the power in our societies.

A woman can be as dumb as a box of hammers, but if she thinks the “right” way, she’ll be shoved into a leadership position. To compound this problem, smart women who don’t think the “right” way will be kicked downstairs with the men.

Many western Defense ministers are gender hires.

We’ve also made a habit of prosecuting any soldiers who actually showed the ability to fight, and loaded up the command structure with trans-sexuals and God knows what else. Because diversity is more important than actually defending the country.

As well as destroying our fighting ability, we’ve seriously depleted our energy resources. While China and Russia have been busy building nuclear and coal fired power stations, and drilling for oil and gas, the West has plunged headlong into the infinite stupidity of “renewable energy”.

With our economies already in a perilous state, we’re now looking at even greater increases in energy prices than we have suffered so far. Oil is going to go astronomical. China and Russia hold all the energy cards, and that’s because Western leaders have unwittingly dealt them that hand.

Or did the leaders who have driven us to this precipice know that they were empowering Russia and China? There are only two possible answers. No, they did not know it, meaning they’re intolerably stupid, or yes, they knew it, and they did it on purpose. Meaning they’re traitors to the West. Take your pick.

Voters believed they had a choice each election. When really they’ve just been voting for the same old anti-western uniparty every time. Ardern and Luxon (for the most recent examples), are like peas in a pod. Both “climate change” fanatics and both welded to the destructive World Economic Forum ideology of globalist Klaus Schwab.

And people will rush out and vote for one or the other of these damn fools and so we will  continue to destroy our energy base and thereby boost the fortunes of China and Russia.

That’s if we’re still able to vote. China is watching what is happening in the Ukraine, and will note well the weakness of the West. They saw our humiliating collapse in Afghanistan, and how we ran from there leaving $ billions worth of sophisticated arms behind for the enemy to capture. A capitulation even weaker and more despicable than the Vietnam defeat.

The Chicoms could well decide its a good opportunity to put their long held plans to invade Taiwan into practice. Or they could go further, and come down through the Pacific taking Australia and New Zealand and any other weak Western democracies that stood in their way.

Who is going to stop them? Joe Biden? Boris Johnson? Justin Trudeau? Scott Morrison? Or God help us, Jacinda Ardern? Nope. No one will stop them, because they can’t. And maybe that’s been the idea right from the start.

So if there is indeed an election in 2023, NZers should try not to vote for the same anti-Western “progressives” they’ve been voting for for five decades or more. This time, they need to make their vote count for something other than their own country’s social and economic destruction. It might well be their last chance to do so.
