If You Want An Alliance To Work, Leave Out The Christofascists

Suggestions did the rounds again this week that the minority parties unite under one banner. This has been a perennial suggestion since my first time in the Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party in 2007. Now, as then, egos prevented the suggestion from getting anywhere. One thing would make forming an alliance to get over the 5% threshold much easier: leave out the Christofascists.

Ironically, the most recent suggestion to unite was made by Brian Tamaki. But few are willing to work alongside Tamaki on account of his toxic reputation. Tamaki is a classic example of a Christofascist, Christofascism being “the political direction of all attempts to place Christ at the center of social life and history.”

Tamaki, like his fellows Elliot Ikilei and Leighton Baker, wants to use the State to smash people he hates: drug users, homosexuals and prostitutes being the usual targets. The Christian fascist logic is that these people shouldn’t be tolerated. Like other fascists, the Christofascist has a massively overflated opinion of their own moral judgment.

Christian fascists don’t work well with others. Combining the ruthlessness of the authoritarian right with the arrogance of the authoritarian centre, these fascists are everything politics shouldn’t be: narcissistic, pompous fanatics who literally believe they’re appointed by God to rule over the rest of us.

Few others are as obnoxious as the Christofascist. Like their Abrahamic counterparts the jihadists, the Christofascist exists in a perpetual state of war against all outsiders. This puts him in a mindset of antagonistic, spiteful aggression, exemplified by their rejection of cannabis law reform.

As was observed at the Wellington protests earlier this year, co-operating with Christian fascists is extremely difficult. Not only do they want to hog the stage and the PA system, but they have no respect for other points of view, are happy to negotiate on behalf of everyone else without getting their consent for it, and are willing to jump in at the last minute to steal the limelight.

This level of arrogance is not as great as the arrogance that launched the Inquisition or murdered Hypatia, but it’s getting up there. It’s an arrogance that can only be submitted to, not co-operated with. So the proposal of this essay is that we don’t co-operate with them, i.e. we leave the Christofascists to form their own party and let the true freedom movement unite under a separate banner.

This arrangement would leave New Conservative, Advance NZ, ONE Party, Vision NZ and any Brian Tamaki, Elliot Ikilei or Leighton Baker-related vehicles to form their own Christofascist party. This party could then have the policy of banning all drugs, homosexuality, prostitution, music, dancing and levity. They can even freely propose to again make it legal to rape your wife.

The non-Christofascist parties outside of Parliament won 138,455 votes in 2020, or some 4.9% of the total (New Zealand First 75,021, or 2.6%; The Opportunities Party 43,449, or 1.5%; Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party 13,329, or 0.5%; NZ Outdoors Party 3,256, or 0.1%; Sustainable NZ Party 1,880, or 0.1%; Social Credit 1,520, or 0.1%). If these parties would combine under one non-Christofascist banner, they could seriously challenge the 5% threshold.

Possibly this would have to be a Winston Peters-led movement in order to get enough votes, and he might reason that he has a better chance by himself with New Zealand First (which is fair, considering that he’s been in Parliament with them before). Some might not think favourably of Peters, but he has one quality that contrasts him with the Establishment – he’s a nationalist.

An anti-Establishment, anti-Christofascist alliance would inevitably be nationalist in character. As such, it’s fitting for Winston Peters and his party to be at the centre of it. This might make it hard to integrate The Opportunities Party, who are led by – of all things – a foreign ex-Goldman Sachs banker. But integration of the others would not be too difficult.

The Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party is already nationalist in the sense that the vast majority of their voters are New Zealand-born, and very few of their voters are immigrants. An alliance that explicitly rejected the War on Drugs could easily win the support of ALCP voters, and this would suit a nationalist vehicle, as the War on Drugs was an imported foreign concept from the beginning.

The Outdoors Party, Sustainable NZ and Social Credit have several quality candidates in (among others) Sue Grey, Vernon Tava, Chris Leitch and Amanda Vickers. If candidates like these could ally with the high-IQ Kiwis in The Opportunities Party (like Dr. Ben Peters), with a token representative from the ALCP, and under the paternal guidance of Winston Peters for one last crusade against the Establishment, they could do well.

Why The Government Lets Violent Criminals Run Rampant

Many were stunned by the news this week that Daniel Havili, who killed Fau Vake with a coward’s punch in Auckland, was sentenced to a mere 33 months’ imprisonment. Havili will, in all likelihood, be released after serving a little over a year. Considering the historical severity of sentences for killing people, this is very close to getting away scot free.

This incredibly light touch comes in the wake of other soft sentences for violent assaults. In one notorious recent case, Mongrel Mob chapter president Terry Berryman was sentenced to 23 months’ imprisonment for an 18-man gang home invasion that stomped on a man’s head in front of his children. Most of the gang members involved were not prosecuted.

This has prompted many to ask: why such light sentences for such barbaric crimes?

These sentences seem incongruous with the fact that cannabis growers such as Harley Brown get a similar amount of time in prison for growing medicinal cannabis. Brown was sentenced to 27 months’ imprisonment for a piddling amount of cannabis – at most $100,000 worth. This is for an “offence” that not even 51% of the New Zealand population believes should be an offence.

Other working-class whites, like Philip Arps, don’t even have to grow cannabis. Arps was sentenced to 21 months’ imprisonment for sharing the Christchurch mosque shooting video.

So why do violent criminals almost get a free ride from the courts, when peaceful people get smashed? Why would sharing a video attract a similar sentence to a gang leader doing a home invasion in which children are subjected to the sight of their father getting his head stomped?

The answer lies in understanding the motivations, intentions and aspirations of the ruling class.

Everyone who knows anything about psychology knows that violent criminals cheer at such weak sentences as the ones listed above. For professional criminals, arrests and prison time are just part of the cost of doing business. The lighter the sentencing, the lower the expenses. Therefore, the lighter the sentencing, the more crime pays.

These weak sentences mean that criminals can freely intimidate other people with threats of violence, knowing that the judicial consequences will be minimal. When sentences are as weak as they are in the West today, violent criminals get to reign in terror over the vulnerable (usually working-class) communities in which they reside. Even if the Police deal to them, they’ll be out again soon enough, and in most cases barely inconvenienced.

This end result – widespread terror – is not accidental. It is, in fact, the entire goal of having a justice system in which violent criminals are left to run rampant. In a state of terror, both individuals and populations are unusually willing to forfeit their rights, needs and desires. As such, it’s easier to rule over a terrorised population than a free one.

The Government allows violent criminals to run rampant in New Zealand for one simple reason: to terrorise the rest of us into submission.

VJM Publishing wrote in a previous article why the Government lets in terrorists like the New Lynn supermarket stabber Ahamed Samsudeen. The reason is the same. They let violent criminals run loose for the same reason that they let terrorists run loose: to maximise the degree of fear the average person feels.

Widespread fear makes the population submissive, and is necessary for any authoritarian government to maintain control. Without the fear, the population would rise up against authoritarianism and overthrow it. The fear beats them down and makes them suspicious of their neighbours and workmates, so that no-one organises any resistance.

The control system has many ways of spreading fear through the populace – the foremost of which is the mainstream media – but violent criminals serve this purpose as well as terrorists do.

The surge of adrenaline people get from seeing a patched gang member in public, and the adrenaline fatigue that inevitably follows it, primes people’s minds to submit. Engendering this submission, as George Orwell showed us, is the end goal of all political action and is the ultimate aspiration of the control system.

Learnings From The Truckers’ Convoy And Parliament Lawn Protests

Now that the Police have broken up the freedom protest in Wellington, it’s time to look back on the past month and determine what can be learned from the experience. In the opinion of this author, four important lessons are immediately evident.

1. Establish a clear leadership structure.

The freedom movement needs to have established leaders who can be relied upon to give accurate information to supporters about the state of affairs. The February convoys were beset by misinformation and rumour-mongering, some of it deliberately stirred up by Establishment lackeys, mainstream media hacks and other tools of authoritarianism.

Some detachments of the convoys were sent down wrong routes by trolls pretending to be organisers, and a grifter pretending to be part of the movement was able to trick people into making donations into his personal bank account. A clear leadership structure needs to be established to avoid these dangers. The masses must be told who these leaders are so that they know not to trust rumours being spread by others.

These national leaders must be unifying figures who have broad support among alternative thinkers. This means no Brian Tamakis or Derek Taits. A person like Outdoors Party Leader Sue Grey would be ideal. This person would have to be responsible for delegating responsibilities to other members of the leadership structure, and would therefore have to be available full time.

A goal might be to find a trusted representative from each leg of the route to stay in touch with the national leadership, as well as the Logistics Committee and Media and Public Relations Committee (see below). The ultimate goal would be a structure that protected the movement from false rumours, outside agitators, mainstream media lies and the machinations of Establishment politicians.

2. Establish a Logistics Committee.

At one point, rumour had it that the viability of the Parliament lawn campsite hinged on whether the protest organisers could arrange Portaloos for the protesters. This is an example of the logistical considerations that protest organisers need to consider. Next time, a Logistics Committee needs to take care of any issues relating to providing the basic needs of thousands of people.

As Kelvyn Alp mentioned on Counterspin the other night, the convoy participants were met along the way by people handing out bread and other food. A large number of people suddenly descending on a city will inevitably require large amounts of food and drink. A Logistics Committee is needed to help deal to this suddenly increased demand for basic needs. Arranging shelter is also vital work.

Logistics also includes the provision of a public address system. The PA system for the speakers outside Parliament was provided by a church group, which soon refused to let anyone else speak except for preachers. The freedom movement must try to supply everything needed for its purposes without relying on outsiders who may have other motives.

3. Establish a Media and Public Relations Committee.

The mainstream media’s coverage of the protests was little more than an effort to smear the protesters as white supremacists. All throughout, the mainsteam media spread rumours of neo-Nazi involvement, sexual assaults in the camp and violence against bystanders. The mainstream media is an arm of the control system and the enemy of the New Zealand people, and they need to be considered as such. Therefore, they must be dealt with intelligently.

To this end, the freedom movement needs a Media and Public Relations Committee to deal with media interactions.

One important part of this is to provide press releases to scoop.co.nz and to other journalistic sources. This will get the true message out about the motivations, intentions and aspirations of the movement and will pre-empt the authorities and the mainstream media from smearing us as racists and white supremacists. We must speak for ourselves so that our enemies are prevented from doing so.

These press releases must serve the imperative to win the propaganda war. Winning this war also involves getting the message out through channels other than the mainstream media, who will twist and spin things to serve their masters in the Establishment. Close liasons with alternative media must be maintained. Freedom movement leaders must get themselves interviewed by, and get their opinion pieces published by, the alternative media.

4. Keep the Christians and other fanatics out.

VJM Publishing has long made the argument that the freedom movement cannot include Christians for the simple reason that Christians do not support freedom, as evidenced by Christian opposition to cannabis law reform, prostitution law reform and homosexual law reform, and Christian support for the legal right to hit one’s children and to rape one’s wife.

These five strikes do not mean that Christians should be made to feel excluded, but it means that Christians cannot be allowed into influential positions within the movement. They will sabotage the movement to the benefit of their cult if any opportunity arises, and will always cause infighting as they inevitably seek to impose themselves upon and exclude non-Christians.

To this end, Destiny Church and Brian Tamaki have to be completely excluded. Destiny and Tamaki claim to be freedom fighters, but they recently campaigned for the New Zealand Government to destroy cannabis users in the 2020 cannabis referendum. Therefore, they do not understand freedom. They are simply grifters using the freedom movement to promote their cult, and need to be utterly shunned.

Any religious fundamentalist who has previously campaigned to take freedoms away from the New Zealand people must be excluded from the freedom movement. This means anti-cannabis fanatics like Tamaki, Elliot Ikilei and Leighton Baker. The freedom movement has to be smart enough to tell the difference between people who truly stand up for freedom and people who just say that they do.

This goes for all other fanatics. No Communists, no Nazis, no “you should be allowed to buy children on the free market” libertarians. Anyone who thinks they can decide for other people what’s right for them has to be excluded. They will only cause infighting.

The Three Layers Of The Control System

There are three layers to the control system which rules over us and which keeps us in a state of submission. These layers reflect the basic strategies that the rulers of the control system use to paralyse our ability to resist the abuses they heap upon us. The three layers can be arranged in descending order, from the most subtle coercion to the crudest.

The first and most subtle layer of coercion involves the the priesthood, which imitates gold.

This layer is subtle because it relates to the spirit. Here, the control system takes measures to sap the will of their victims, making them unwilling to resist or avenge abuses. These measures are made possible through being dressed in the trappings of spirituality. The incomprehensibility of divinity means that such measures, associated with the transcendent and eternal, are ever-effective.

One of the most effective of these measures is brainwashing people to think that, if they don’t obey the priests, they will reincarnate in Hell. Anyone disobeying the dark priesthood of the control system is told that they risk the wrath of God. The masses are told that they are morally obliged to kneel down and submit to the established powers, by divine order.

Spiritually brainwashing people to be submissive is most apparent in the constant preaching in favour of weakness and passivity. The top layer of the control system always preaches that the right course of action is to do nothing and wait for Jesus to come back, or to wait for the End Times. Meanwhile, the rulers of the control system wage war after war, massacring people in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Balkans, Vietnam, Korea, Europe and dozens of smaller theatres.

The priesthood admonishes us to forgive our abusers, even when those abusers have no intention of ceasing. In doing so, they condition us to accept being abused. Through the workings of the dark priesthood, the control system induces us to submit to evil. The trouble for the controllers is that, today, most people no longer follow priests, which is where the second layer of the control system comes in.

The second layer of coercion is the mainstream media and major banking and financial interests, representing the silver.

The dark priesthood works to subjugate people’s wills, but if the people are intelligent enough, they will see through the lies of false religions. This is when the mainstream media steps in. If the priesthood is there to weaken people’s souls, the mainstream media is there to weaken their minds. This mental destruction is achieved in two major ways.

The first is by spreading fear, uncertainty and doubt. For all the politicians crying about misinformation being spread by foreign actors on social media, the number one source of misinformation is the mainstream media itself. Mainstream journalists and reporters only tell the Establishment’s side of the story, normalising the control system and its objectives at the expense of the people controlled.

The second is by destroying the reputations of anyone who resists the control system. As soon as any genuine leaders stand up among the people, the mainstream media deploys every slur it can think of – Nazi, white supremacist, nutjob, terrorist, extremist, radical – to induce the masses to withdraw their support.

The banking and financial interests also play a role here. Not only do they fund the mainstream media, but they also work to subjugate the population with debt. The mainstream media normalises the idea of half-million dollar mortgages, and then the banking and finance interests suck labour out of people for decades. The average person’s gigantic debt makes them unwilling to take risks to upset the status quo.

The third layer of coercion is the law enforcement bodies, representing the iron.

If the control system can’t subjugate the population by weakening their souls or their minds, the population will tend to become enraged. The worse they are governed, the more enraged they become. If things get really bad, people often start demonstrating and protesting physically, by occupying public space. This terrifies the controllers of the control system because they’re afraid of a revolution in which they get guillotined.

In such cases, the control system sends the hard iron of the Police forces in to smash dissenters physically – a low-frequency defence to a low-frequency threat. Examples abound, most recently with the Wellington lawn protests getting broken up by Police (or, as Anarkiwi phrased it, the February Revolt was put down).

The layer of iron is the control system’s most fundamental layer. As Robert A. Heinlein put it, violence is “The supreme authority from which all other authorities are derived.” Although the control system tries to engender submission first with spiritual lies and then with intellectual lies, these both stop working once people become wise to them. At this point, the control system sends in the batons and water cannon.

The control system knows that the more subtle the control, the less resentment it generates, and that resentment is liable to spill over into civil unrest. Hence, in libertarian societies they tend to be reluctant to send the Police in to smash protesters. The smart approach – and the control system is smart, even if it’s evil – is to suppress the masses with the most subtle measures first.

The danger for the control system in the short term is that faith in both mainstream religion and mainstream media have never been lower. This means that general satisfaction with the control system has never been lower, and therefore that the risk of severe unrest has never been higher. The immediate future of Clown World is likely to involve more violence.
