New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern ordered a nationwide Level 4 lockdown after one case of COVID-19 was confirmed last August. .Schools, churches, businesses — everything but essential services were shut down. .Ardern ordered people not to talk to one another..“We ask people to stay two meters away from anyone you pass, stay local, and do not congregate. Don’t talk to your neighbours. Please keep to your bubble,” said Ardern, who it can be safely argued, is trapped in her own special kind of delusional bubble..How times change. .Bars, restaurants and gyms in Auckland recently reopened after a more than 100-day lockdown. .But those aren’t the only freedoms Ardern granted..Ardern just gave New Zealanders the go-ahead to partake in orgies of up to 25 people. .Any more than 25 participants in one sex party apparently would violate Ardern’s COVID-19 restrictions and lead to an outbreak of pandemic proportions..“I can confirm that Tinder liaisons have reopened. It’s not strictly embedded in the traffic light system, but, um, it is a given, up to 25 actually, in a red area,” an animated, giggling Ardern said in an interview Friday..New Zealand operates on a traffic light system of red, amber, and green light categories that determine how much freedom people are granted by the almighty Ardern. .What’s wrong with her? Hasn’t this woman heard of the dreadful Omicron variant that might — the hysteria is yet to be proven — pose a global risk and lead to another complete shutdown?.Well, sure she has. Ardern said New Zealand authorities are working to avoid Omicron’s spread in the country..So, according to Ardern’s twisted logic, people who partake in orgies needn’t be concerned about Omicron or anything COVID-19 related..Presumably, the orgy participants must be vaccinated. It’s not clear if Ardern stipulated that..But the wrath of her government will descend on any unvaccinated Kiwi trying to enter a church..There are tough guidelines for the vaccinated who do..A christening planned? “Try to keep time spent in close contact to a minimum,” says the government on its COVID-19 website..It “encourages contactless donations instead of a cash collection box” and orders that musical instruments be “thoroughly sanitized” after use..Ardern’s government now benevolently allows refreshments in houses of worship, but has ordered those wild and crazy church people “not to share drinks, cups, plates, cutlery or other items.” .Hopefully, those orgy people won’t be sharing cups and cutlery. That might be way too risky..Do you think they practice social distancing?.New Zealand reported 13,067 COVID-19 cases and 47 deaths since COVID-19 turned the world upside down..And people have since been at the mercy of fools like Ardern who hold power over populations..She’s extreme. Or is she?.We’ve been twisting in the wind with mandates enforced based on prejudice and whims and guesswork by bureaucrats and politicians and alleged medical experts, just because they can. .It’s all for the greater good, of course. We’ll get to the end if we blindly obey, they promise. .But obeying the rules and taking precautions in the face of a very real virus isn’t enough. For them, it’ll never be enough. .New rules constantly pop up to contradict their old rules as they get outed partying maskless, not social distancing, and violating travel restrictions imposed on everyone else..And so much of the ever-changing health mandates make no sense..It’s been said before — 15 days to flatten the curve; masks, no masks, double masks; Walmart’s safe but church isn’t..A double jab will do it. Oh wait, booster shots, maybe regularly, and now for children or they’ll be banned from classrooms, will be necessary..It’s reached a level where family members feel smug about banning unvaccinated family members from Christmas celebrations. How sad is that?.People turn on one another while nutcases like Ardern devise new ways to frighten and control, while allowing perverts to group play..So much cruelty in the name of ‘science’ has been inflicted on children forced to wear masks and growing up in a world that needlessly frightens them..But red flags are constantly ignored as the masses simply oblige..Think about it. The person calling the shots in New Zealand says orgies are OK, they’re safe and acceptable, but sharing a fork at church isn’t. .She isn’t alone. Dr. Anthony Fauci, head of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said in April 2020 that it’s OK to hook-up on Tinder. He’s has been the driving force behind massive lockdowns and lost freedoms..These people are either nuts or dishonest about the dangers. Maybe they’re both..And what is this depraved fixation with Tinder? .The insanity lies in the fact that fools like this, and others, continue to wield power. .Slobodian is the Senior Manitoba Columnist for the Western Standard.lslobodian@westernstandardonline.com
