Jacinda Ardern may no longer be Prime Minister of New Zealand, but she was back at the United Nations continuing her call for international censorship. Ardern is now one of the leading anti-free speech figures in the world and continues to draw support from political and academic establishments. In her latest attack on free speech, Ardean declared free speech as a virtual weapon of war. She is demanding that the world join her in battling free speech as part of its own war against “misinformation” and “disinformation.” Her views, of course, were not only enthusiastically embraced by authoritarian countries, but the government and academic elite.
In her speech, she notes that we cannot allow free speech to get in the way of fighting things like climate change. She notes that they cannot win the war on climate change if people do not believe them about the underlying problem. The solution is to silence those with opposing views. It is that simple.
...
While some of us have denounced her views as an attack on free expression, Harvard rushed to give her not one but two fellowships. While the free speech community denounced her for unrelenting attacks on this human right, Harvard praised her for “strong and empathetic political leadership” and specifically enlisted her to help “improve content standards and platform accountability for extremist content online.”
I actually have no objection to the inclusion of Ardern as a Harvard fellow. She is a former world leader who is leading the movement against free speech. It is a view that students should consider in looking at these controversies. However, Harvard has heralded her views with no acknowledgment of her extreme antagonism toward free speech principles. There is also little countervailing balance at the school with fellows supporting free speech as a human right. Rather, Harvard (which ranks dead last on the recent free speech survey) has become a virtual clearinghouse for anti-free speech academics and advocates.
Free speech is now commonly treated on campuses as harmful. Rather than the right that defines us, it is treated as an existential threat.
What is so chilling is to hear Ardean express her fealty to free speech as she calls on the nations of the world to severely curtail it to prevent people from undermining their policies and priorities. She remains the “empathetic” face of raw censorship and intolerance. She is now the virtual ambassador-at-large for global speech regulation and criminalization.
Donkey Teeth Ardern, the former dominatrix of New Zealand is cordially invited to have a big glass of STFU and get her sorry azz back to Kiwiland. We don’t need foreigners like her telling us how to live in our own country.
Just one question: why is she even here in the United States?
She obviously has the ego where she planted her flag claiming to be the ultimate source of truth and light.
If she’s not hearing HER WORDS come out of OTHERS MOUTHS, it’s all lies and disinformation.
‘Donkey Teeth Ardern, the former dominatrix of New Zealand...’
the leading and the most obvious example of the inner control freak of most females...
“Jacintha Ardean”?
She tried all that in a small country.
The West is post-enlightenment, post-Christian, and re-paganizing quickly.
I would like to have an airhorn beside her microphone and every time she opens her mouth it blows. They maybe she would understand.
I’m surprised the U.N. knows where the hell New Zealand is? Most other people on the planet haven’t a clue. I found a survey once that said more than twice the number of people on the planet could find Iceland on a globe than could find New Zealand.
Maybe a number of the natives weren't as compliant and happy as what the narrative portrayed, and outnumbered the security needed to put them down if they got uppity. Might explain her stepping down and moving halfway around the world.
>why is she even here in the United States?
Probably because she wants to avoid the wrath of her fellow countrymen.
U.S. out of the UN. UN out of the U.S.

Harvard’s Jacinda Ardean Calls on the United Nations to Crack Down on Free Speech as a Weapon of War
She is trying to pull the same crap as she was while being the leader of New Zealand a while back. But as usual, people forget only too quickly.
More hot air from Harvard.
Every hellhole culture in the world supports her... Ask the goons and thugs at the DOJ, the FBI and Homeland if their jobs would be MUCH EASIER if they could just arrest or murder citizens who disagree with them.
Maybe even arrest leaders or the Presidential candidates of the opposing party.
It worked for Stalin - it worked for Hitler. Why not for the DOJ and Homeland?
Biden doesn't like people looking into Hunter's 'friedns' giving him money - and sharing it with his family. Kill the people who object. That'll make things 'peaceful'. Democrat want to 'cancel' - death is the untimate 'cancel'. That'll shut Musk up... and people like him.
No one objects to any crap in North Korea. Those citizens have learned how to sit down and shut up. So this bitch has a point.
Private jets for her and her ilk - and hell on earth for citizens. Iran's clerics don't put up with crap either ... Garland and the deep stare are so jealous of the Mullah's power.
Jacinda will become the cornerstone of Marxism soon.
UN Agenda 21 , 2030 , Great Reset, ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
U.S. out of the UN. UN out of the U.S
+1. Amen…
Those blue helmets stand out real well. Should make great targets.
