Gay Pride Week in Wanaka: A Seed Germinates for “Mandated Acceptance Week”

15/11/2024

By Randall Richards
Wanaka New Zealand is currently hosting Gay Pride Week. Neighboring Queenstown has had a similar event for years. The thing I noticed about the wording of their promotional writeup on Facebook is it made me think, “Hey wait a minute, they’re describing how we feel.” And, who are “we”?
WE are all those in New Zealand who bore the brunt of draconian measures to enforce vaccination passports where our prime minister actually admitted that there would be two classes of people, those vaxxed and those that weren’t. Those who followed the rules would be afforded all the benefits of going along with the plan. Those that resisted, would suffer. Suffice it to say, Ardern will not weather well in the history books.

Here’s the post I saw tonight on Facebook:

“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome you all and see our community come together to celebrate and connect. Our OUT&about Wānaka team and trust have poured so much heart and hard work into making this week unforgettable.

Then a neighbor posted in the comment section: “Wanaka does not need this. Jesus Christ, what ever happened to Tradie Week?”

Here is my comment in the thread:
I gotta add my own thoughts as well. I’m not here to say whether we need or don’t need this event. – I’m totally for gay rights. But this post begs the question, what about another suppressed group that needs a coming out event?
So gather round, and hear me out:
Having been mandated out of libraries, barber shops, restaurants, even the commuinty offices and service desks, and treated like second class citizens during 2020 etc…When I read the above text I felt my friends and I that suffered during the mandates also need a week of “all about creating safe, inclusive spaces to come together, express ourselves, and be proud of who we are.” Those of us who didn’t get the jab, didn’t die, but what did happen to us isn’t really on people’s radar, and what about the vax injured. As a start, I invite people to come to the dDnosaur park tomorrow at Noon for Red Remembrance Day. It’s a start, but we have a long way to go to even be acknowledged, as a part of the New Zealand population that’s had a rough go.

It all seems a bit ironic,, that’s all. But it’s also inspiring, to get out there and not be afraid to stand up and speak out. And it’s not just me that feels this way, there’s quite a few of us.

Red Remembrance Day in Wanaka NZ

15/11/2023

November 15th 2021 is a day when “healthcare mandates” were imposed by the Jacinda Ardern government in here in New Zealand, instantly creating a two-tiered society. If one was not vaccinated, one either lost their job, house, visiting and travel rights, or more. Red Remembrance day though, is not a protest, rather is a day of contemplation or remembering those who have been injured or killed by the mRNA vaccine, who have lost jobs or family, or been affected in some way by the past years abuses.

Below are some scenes of yesterday’s event here in Wanaka New Zealand. I’m also publishing NZ Doctors Speaking Out With Science, (Better known as NZDSOS) full 2023 statement as well as Dr. Guy Hatchard’s statement of support. Special thanks to Craig Rizzi, Wanaka’s Voices For Freedom Coordinator for his video captures of the day’s event.

NZDSOS Red Remembrance Day 2023 read by Dr. Mark Edmond Wanaka NZ, Nov 15th

Hello Everyone,
My name is Mark Edmond, and I’m representing NZDSOS today.
A very warm welcome to this, the 2nd Red Remembrance day. NZDSOS is proud to
stand here today with you all. November 15th 2021 was truly a day New Zealand must always remember, so we can say “never again” and mean it. It was the day on which many New Zealanders KNEW they would lose their jobs and their lives would change for the worse – for exerting their basic human rights, following their instincts, or going where their scientific research had led them. They still say we had a choice back then. We know that is a lie. More than 2 years on and the true toll is becoming clear. Many dead and injured, young and old. We are here to acknowledge and remember all those who have suffered, and celebrate our togetherness. Our country was deceived, and suffered terrible harm. The scientific and historical proof is overwhelming and yet our authorities are still silent, and even pressing on.
We know beyond doubt that the government KNEW it had bought an ineffective and dangerous product. Even its contract warned that safety was unknown.
So how are we here then, where many Kiwis have been needlessly killed, and many more badly hurt and, even worse, abandoned? Well, some humans can be truly horrible to the rest of us who just want to do the right thing, and “man’s inhumanity to man” is unique in the animal kingdom. Somehow a small clique with a lust for power, profit and control always manage to turn the lives of many to misery. Except when enlightened democracies stick to moral and ethical codes, especially those that should govern medicine. But once the doctors are captured, that ethical high bar topples and it is all downhill. The best past example of this is still 1930s Germany. Once their doctors okayed the euthanasia of the physically and mentally disabled, the rest is history.
The Covid debacle illustrates all these lessons, and more. The power of fear. The power of money. That power corrupts, including in those suddenly thrust into the spotlight. That many believe that we are all safer if we follow orders, but can be led to do terrible things, just because others are doing them too. That not just livelihood is at risk if they stand up, but status too, and psychologists understand that the smartest and most successful stick their willfully blind heads in the sand with the most determination, as they fear losing their elevated status more strongly than anyone else. We have seen this not just in government officials and regulators, but in coroners, pathologists, senior police, judges and lawyers. And, yes, we are afraid of
these people collaborating to silence us, but not speaking out doesn’t make it all any
less true, and certainly doesn’t save lives.
We’ve learnt we cannot trust officials just because of their status. The TV talking heads are speaking to convince themselves just as much as the people still listening to them, which, sadly, is still too many.
Well, these people are not going to wake suddenly to their human frailty and imperfections. We have to lead ourselves out of this mess. This, the biggest story of modern humanity so far – the deliberate harming of billions of people – puts our species at a crossroads. So do we believe we deserve a planet free of murderous wars, fear and misery, or one of abundance, caring and self determination? Do we think that is even possible? Most of us probably do, and it is time to step around the few that fear losing their position in society or their ill-gotten gains.
Last year we paid tribute to the various groups of people most affected, and today is
no different. Firstly those mandated out of their work, especially from healthcare, teaching,
defense and first responders, but also from many businesses too whose bosses were manipulated by the government. They were told the economy would be closed until they got their workers injected, and their customers masked and segregated.
We noted the strength and resourcefulness that has seen some of us healthier and maybe happier than we were before, with a new family, hardened by the fires of enforced solidarity, and stronger from the lies and abuse of the mainstream media.
These liars are paid for with our taxes to push an extreme political narrative. Safe and Effective is not about science. It can’t be, as it’s not true. Even the Medical Council has now removed its written instructions to lie about safety issues. But the brave groups of teachers and defence who went to the appeals court, after they lost their challenge to the government’s attack on our basic freedoms, have STILL not had their verdicts, even 7 months later!! It’s the same for the first doctor to the striking off tribunal. Justice delayed is justice denied. We have seen judges bend over backwards not to offend the government, when they are supposed to be separate and provide justice for all. NZDSOS is challenging in court the Medical Council’s right to have us desecrate our oaths, to punish us for disobedience, and to prevent us from providing actual covid
treatments to vulnerable patients, despite clear evidence early on that lives could have been saved. If the Medical Council board wished to support the labour government’s contract with Pfizer, they should not have dragged medicine down with it.
Regarding the mandates, of note, some opposition MPs at the time voted AGAINST them. So clearly, the Medical Council has taken one side in a political debate, not a health one, where behaving ethically and treating disease used to be basic norms. NZDSOS is fighting of course to retain these principles, and we fight also for the rights of the 2nd and potentially largest group affected, the vaccine injured. There were 67 000 injury reports to Medsafe until they decided to stop publishing a year ago in Nov 2022. 11 000 were serious, but 7000 of those supposedly got lost in the system. But even 67 000 is a small fraction as we know many do not get reported, and we have proof only a small fraction of those that do ever get any assessment at
all. Different pieces of research using different methods are all honing in on the true rate of harm and it is as astonishing as it is unacceptable. We have provided this information to government relentlessly. It may well be around 1 death per 1000 shots given, and the risk of serious harm or death goes up exponentially with each jab. This number fits with New Zealand’s excess mortality of over 10 000 since the rollout
began. Our work with the data we can get is suggesting that New Zealand too has some especially harmful batches. But in all samples tested, independent researchers have discovered contamination with bacterial DNA at levels v likely to cause harm.
As individual doctors we are censured and prosecuted for speaking up, and often accused of making statements without providing the evidence. However, we are always posting and sending this evidence to govt, and many of you also are well clued up with the research. For every death of course tens or hundreds have significant injury, or will have in the future. There was no human data to inform immediate, short term or medium term risks, let alone long term, so how the heck can people who say they are fine now actually know that will remain true? Sudden widespread and aggressive cancers, blood clots, strokes and heart attacks are already through the roof. We can’t get on and research how to protect from future problems whilst still fighting for people who are CLEARLY already damaged. Many are denied ACC or even acknowledgement. Officials played a reckless Russion roulette, and we-the-people have lost.
The number of stories of sudden deaths and very unpleasant diseases is as shocking as it is widespread and most will know, in their heart of hearts, of affected people, that this is not normal and something is very wrong. Around the world, doctors, nurses, dentists, funeral directors, insurance companies, probate lawyers, MPs and adverse event reporting systems cannot all be wrong. Many of the injured and their families have no clue just how many of them they are. This is our big hope for red remembrance day, and for everyday we keep working. To wake people up to the scale of the problem. Because the government is silent, the press tell lies and the police ignore clear criminal negligence. Are we supposed to just sit and trust the silence and bad judgement of the people who have already let it all go this far? NZDSOS will keep trying to do it’s bit. To save lives and prevent injuries in the future, to treat the harmed, comfort the bereaved, restore medical ethics, and push the politicians, police, courts, legal profession generally and coroners particularly to return to serving the people, instead of playing word games or just turning away.
We call for an immediate end to the mRNA products, including the new ones planned for us, and a proper enquiry into the this whole debacle. The mandates were disgusting and must never be repeated. We believe the tide is turning as the truth is relentless, but we must not stay silent. Lets get really busy between now and the next Red Remembrance Day.
Please join us in a minute’s silence to remember all those probably lost to this international conspiracy of financial interests and willful blindness.
Thank you.
Dr. Mark Edmond, Healthcare Consultant
The Good Doc

This is Dr. Guy Hatchard’s statement of support for NZDSOS’s Red Remembrance Day 2023

“I fully support NZDSOS for organising Red Remembrance Day. Unfortunately the solemn meetings today are not just a question of remembrance. The latest available official figures show that New Zealand excess deaths over five weeks during September and October 2023 are up by 70% on last year. Compared to the historical average we have 155 extra deaths per week which is 22 more deaths per day. Family, friends and the public are being misinformed, ignored and gaslighted as to the cause. Up until now the government and medical authorities have failed to record vaccination status on death certificates. They have refused to do so in order to hide their culpability”. “Please keep up the pressure on the incoming government to face the hard facts, stop mRNA vaccines, admit fault and apologise to the public, seek redress from Pfizer and compensate the victims”.
Best wishes
