The inhuman liberal left

I am absolutely appalled at the latest assault on those against the repeal of s59. The article which triggered this was plastered on the front page of today's DomPost. I find it so offensive, and just so wrong, it may require several posts. And letters to the editor, to my MP, to the Human Rights Commission, and the authors of this unmitigated piece of crap - Victoria University and Save the Children.

"Children seen as not fully human"

How pathetic that accusation. These "researchers" took the submissions for the s59 repeal bill, and "analysed" the language used, to decide that those against the repeal saw children as "human-becoming". That such people saw children as "not fully human".

What crap. These idiots have substituted the word "adult" for human, casually redefining human to fit their narrow ideological perspective that has instantly biased their report.

What's the bet if we queried the pro and against groups, not to mention the researchers themselves, the repeal s59 camp largely see abortion as the destruction of a few cells, and those they are now attempting to mis-characterise see even an unborn child as human.

Human is human, and there are simply different levels of maturity in the cycle of life. To draw a line on adulthood, and define that as human to "explain" that parents see children as "less than human/adult" is simply a calculated propaganda attack, mis-characterizing the obvious differences between children and adults.

Shame on these researchers. Shame.

  1. I'm really not surprised, yet it seems that the pro-repeal people are sinking to new lows. They really, really, really want this legislation repealed and will stop at nothing to make sure it gets repealed. I wonder what the next propaganda campaign will yield.

  2. I must say said article generated exactly the same sentiments in me - unprincipled drivel in every respect. That they were given access to the responses in the first instance with such intention beggers belief.
    Any 'right-minded' centre of study that lauds robust research & has any sense of associated ethical consideration should/would quickly disassociate from such unmitigated nonsense.

  3. Exactly Mojo - and I'm glad you too noticed that these people were given access to the submissions for these purposes. I'm obviously not the only one a little disturbed that such submissions in the future are open to such "investigation".

    The people making submissions may not have realised that every word would be analysed against a "liberal" dictionary and used as fodder for criticism.

    I am planning on doing a post about this because there are deeper implications to this.

  4. Right behind you on this Zen

    The three "researchers" are in fact from the VUW School of Govt. At least two of them used to be govt policy analysts - this smells totally of a Labour govt jackup to bully the population.

    NONE of the researchers have PhDs, compared with say David Fergusson from UoOtago who, has a PhD and 25 years experience in this arena. Not surprisingly, he has a totally different view on this matter.

    VUW is becoming a laughing stock amoung academics - it is nothing more than Labour yes machine. It just confirms the old saying - when you pay peanuts you get monkeys.

  5. Submissions become public once the committee has finished with them.

    This really is sinking to the lowest of the low.

  6. My childhood should have taught me lessons for my own fatherhood , but it didn't because parenting can only be learned by people who have no children - Bill Cosby

    Parenting is not an academic science .This is a record low for the kiwi family .

  7. Having just finished Eve's Bite, i am a little perplexed at the leftists using this argument as they use it to justify abortion which surely is the greater crime against humanity than a little smack on the bum.

  8. It's a demonstrable failure to reason, but a good lesson in abuse.

    Take a child in the womb. This is a lump of cells until they reach the open air when they suddenly become a "complete human being' entitled to all human rights, who is rational and competent and makes a contribution to society."

    Makes turning water into wine look like child's play, dunn't.

    Then there's the bit that gets me.. before looking at the submissions, the submitters are divided into those (non smackers) who have the above miraculous view of children and those who think children are sub human, (smackers) eg, Nazi Concentration camp butchers.

    Couple this disturbing insight into the minds of the researchers and Save The Children and the Labour/Greens villification of 85% of the population into beaters, thrashers and child abusers, and we are talking a deep seated decay of thinking processes and a naked ambition to turn NZ into.. what?
