The consequence of tribalism

Brian Mullane writes > This is the way New Zealand is heading while our government panders to a fake race of non-indigenous Maori who have rewritten their history, their culture, their language, to fit the cheque book the government orders the Reserve Bank to pay them whenever they complain about something.

Former Zimbabwean commercial farmer, Rory Duncan who was dispossessed of his farm under the land reform programme shares his reflections on X.

"Some days, my mind wanders back to a farm I managed in the eastern highlands of Zimbabwe in the late 80s. It was something special.

We produced apples, peaches, pears, and kiwi fruit for local and export markets. We grew broccoli and cauliflower for the frozen veg market and did seed potatoes for a major contract. All on a large scale. Im talking about 1000s of tons of produce. We had a herd of Jersey cows for milking and made butter and cream. We plowed huge hectarage to grow maize, sweet potato, and vegetables for the farm workers.

We had a junior school there with a headmaster and 5 classes. We had a clinic with a permanent nursing sister with meds and staff. We had a church with a pastor and a football team competing in provincial leagues. Every worker, 550 of them, lived in a brick home with electricity, running water, and a wood stove with unlimited firewood.

There was a large store that provided everything from blankets to bicycles. There was a section of the farm dedicated to wildlife conservation.

We had a proactive workers committee and had regular updates and meetings and professionally integrated management systems.

We had huge refrigeration facilities and a modern pack shed with a fleet of trucks. The engineering division had everything it needed, including skilled workers to maintain a large estate. We had a beekeeping division, everything worked, and our people were cherished. We had adult literacy courses in the evenings at the farm hall and transport to functioning hospitals at any time of day or night.

We had professional security services with a canine unit. A football field with a coach and smart uniforms and boots provided to the teams. The annual turnover was in the multiple millions, and the wage spend was huge, as was the tax bill. We spent millions on tractors, implements, fertilizers and fuels.

Today, it is a village of subsistence level agriculture, all of it gone with hardly a memory of what was once there --- why?"

Rory Duncan, was a commercial farmer affected by Mugabe’s anti-white farmer land reforms. After enduring torture and imprisonment, he was forced to leave due to land seizures and political violence. Despite the risks, he returned between 2008 and 2011 to farm a small piece of land outside Harare. He persisted until theft and escalating political pressure made it impossible to continue. Rory found refuge in South Africa.

Make this compulsory reading for our Parliamentarians!

And a dispassionate world destroyed a once flourishing little country. Even the South African Govt shat on Rhodesia in order to selfishly buy more time for themselves. Instead of supporting their Northern kin by combining their resources to halt the Marxist invasion, they chose to betray their neighbour and are now paying the ultimate price. Weak political leadership and public complacency will deliver the same results in New Zealand.

i would not recommend that he come here, even though it might be a slight improvemnt on SA . But if he did come, it could facilitate publicity of the Zimbabwe experience and might wake up the vast number asleep here who d still do not realise we are on the path to the same.

Rory Duncan was dispossessed of his farm under the Land Reform Programme, while we will be dispossessed under the Resource Management Act.
As to why, it is the Fabians (puppet masters) NWO One World Governments feudalistic agenda, utilizing the Fabian strategy, where large, ambitious goals may be accomplished in little steps. By deception we shall wage war, divide and conquer.
The wolf in sheep’s clothing is among us.

How can anyone think that Maori tribalism and/or authority will be any less destructive than African tribalism or communism anywhere?

Tribalism is tribalism, no matter what it's called and practiced throughout the world. And in the end it has the same result

And no amount of Luxon trying to improve the economy is going to have any effect on the sad state of racial affairs in NZ. It’s more than a sad situation, it’s criminal.
