Why is New Zealand's pandemic response (as of a few months ago, might I add) being blasted across Fox News in the US and presented as some sort of dystopian totalitarian FEMA internment camp ridden nightmare?
Because there's an Election on.
Because there's an Election on.
And they want to desperately make it seem like the ONLY WAY to actually have a competent response to Covid-19 is ... by , well, that.
So 4 and 5 star hotels housing people coming into the country for mandatory 14 day quarantine , or close contacts of confirmed cases in the community .. get turned into internment camps where not-actually-ill New Zealanders are snatched up into from off the street ;
and remarks explaining the Kiwi policy dating from months ago are branded as a "terrifying new response".
They're trying DESPERATELY to distract from their own blustering incompetence - & therefore transforming via the magic of the camera lens and the biased media talking-head,
a situation wherein we are all pretty much living *normally* here in Kiwiland, one of the *most free* societies on the planet right now ..
.. into , as I (or rather, as they) say - a dystopian hellscape
.. into , as I (or rather, as they) say - a dystopian hellscape
of socialist / fascist (mis-)rule dotted with camps for dissidents under a tyrannical pseudo-monarch with an adoring cult of personality sufficient to drown out the apparently repressed domestic opposition and "moderate rebels" .
