A ‘study’ by Victoria University says that reducing stigma towards people with a sexual attraction to children (aka “paedophile”) is important for mitigating the negative consequences of stigma towards their ‘orientation’. Bob enrolled in the survey and started the ‘conversion therapy’. Did it work on him?
We’ve been sent a survey which has been sent to primary school principals around NZ by an “Educational Psychologist and Senior Lecturer” at Massey University. One principal told us “Most primary school principals and school communities.. do not see it as age appropriate to be promoting policies of gender & sexuality at a primary school level.”. We analyse this latest academic push on primary schools under the guise of a ‘survey’.
Activists and academics want to play linguistic gymnastics with the term “paedophile”. The movement is even going so far as to claim that paedophilia should be understood as a sexual ‘orientation’ and that the ‘stigma’ is making the paedophile the ‘victim’. The danger is that trying to destigmatise morally eroded behaviour generally ends up normalising it. In this episode, we examine the history of this movement and some of the key players.
Victoria University rebranding paedophiles as ‘victims’ !! Just over a month ago, the Royal Commission’s final report, Whanaketia – through pain and trauma, from darkness to light, was presented to Parliament and published on the Royal Commission’s website. It was a disturbing read as we learnt about the extent of sexual abuse – especially of minors – in both state care and religious institutions. It is therefore especially galling and sickening that coming so soon after this, one of NZ’s major universities – Victoria University in Wellington – appeared to be rebranding paedophiles as ‘victims’ of stigma whose only guilt was having a sexual ‘preference’ or ‘orientation’.
Children are changing the sex on their birth certificate since the new law came into force on 15 June last year, including 47 children 15 years or younger. Some 16/17 year olds have done it without parental / guardian consent.
Dear woke media, my preferred pronouns are hu/hu…
As a champion of rescuing small bugs like daddy long-legs, cockroaches and small spiders from my daughters’ screaming, it seems fitting that my personal pronouns should now be hu/hu. But former Green MP Darleen Tana just changes hers back-and-forth – all within the space of a month. Was that all a joke?
1News claims that “comments that are discriminatory or harmful will not be tolerated” on their social media accounts. We do a fact check – and find that it often depends on who the comments are aimed at.
We highlight two recent fascinating interviews from the USA regarding the left wing bias of CNN, and two news media examples from New Zealand, which show why trust in the media being balanced and fair is at an all-time low. But what’s most interesting is that even the political left are getting sick of the bias.
On Sunday, the saga of Green MP Darleen Tana was covered by TVNZ’s Q&A. What you quickly realise is that when things are scripted, it’s much easier to be woke because you just read the script even if it doesn’t make sense. But like Kamala Harris, when you go off-script, it all goes to custard. And that’s exactly what happened on TVNZ despite their best efforts. The Law Commission has them in their sights!
You’ve probably all heard of disgraced Green MP Darleen Tana. Tana left the Green Party in July, when it received the findings of an independent…
