fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 22/09/2026The latest iteration/front group for the Voices for Freedom led cooker coalition Fun fact: The US version 'MAHA Action' is run by Dr Assem Malhotra who lies a lot eg he claimed the GB Royals got cancer from the COVID jab t.ly/ruWL9 The VFF coalition toured him around NZ fundy churches in 2023 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 15/09/2026What do you call it when 'brilliant' people make stuff up and apply their ruthless critique to one group's actions when (at best) they also do an eye roll, 'well I guess he is a bit of a character' and shrug when their political allies/friends do much worse things. Complicated (unlike stupid you) 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Lynda Wharton of The Health Forum has got wind of this and is encouraging her antivaxxers to spam you. That's unvaccinated Lynda Wharton, who claimed to be 'vaccine injured' after her dentist 'shed' MRNA onto her. She had a full recovery after treating herself with...you guessed it, ivermectin. 130
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 19/08/2026It's "hiding your power level". The only thing that's good about it is that they know their true ideas are unpopular. 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 02/08/2026This is from May 2026. In this conversation Jones noisily agreed as Garner complained about immigration "have you seen auckland recently?" and specifically school capacity because of the number of 'asians' at the school his kid attends. 010
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Bhattacharya once said "treating people as mere biohazards" is "toxic" and "poisonous" Sorry, I meant Toxic and Poisonous Podcast Jay said that. 020
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 06/06/2026To be fair he's also a lying, woman-hating racist who often gets aggro with people who don't agree with him. 2265
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 29/05/2026The alternative proposed is for the state to build loads of public housing. With the increased housing supply creating downward pressure on rents and an alternative to home ownership (presumably reducing house prices). 100
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 04/05/2026I'm going to have to look for that. My mum taught cooking at my school and passed on her rationing mentality, so I'm always looking for bargain magic ingredients. I'm also on the look out for a very very low heat chile powder if anyone has suggestions. Also what do you think of this stuff? 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 30/03/2026VFF is noticably *not* prepping people to resist a new sinister globalist plot to implement tyranny It's "keep calm and carry on" (and recruit to local groups). They've even floated car sharing Don't rock the boat while Peters is in govt. Don't join the dots back to Trump or our MAGA politics 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 25/01/2026I think you should also include ecofascism as an influence. Natural vitality/purity/no 'toxins', selective anti corporatism. Anti 'globalist', conspiracist, anti science. It's no coincidence that Outdoors Party people pall around with known fascists and get caught saying racist stuff. Also Alia. 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 28/12/2025This one came out in 92. I didn't discover it until a decade later. It's my favourite KLF album. 010
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 17/12/2025He also had no problem promoting the worst sort of crackpots and their theories to his followers. 'science is never settled', "not claiming X, just asking questions" and 'just want debate, why do you oppose free speech?" is his transparently cynical way of legitimizing antivax bullshit. 0141
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 11/10/2025And the account he's boosting is one of the most prolific antivax accounts in New Zealand. 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 27/07/2025In case anyone is wondering, here are the contents pages. 010
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 25/07/2025Can't they just make a facemask using one of these photos? 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 25/07/2025I remember watching Hannah Alps (counterspin) and Liz Gunn (NZ Loyal) talking about how transgenderism was an orchestrated Marxist plot to corrupt the west. (cultural Marxist conspiracy theory) As Liz spoke they put an article from a Nazi publication (National Vanguard) on screen behind her. 200
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 23/07/2025Water runs downhill, my kid goes on xbox. Long xbox sessions and video chat via messenger. Socializing with cousin who lives 4hrs away. Watches youtube. Inspired to draw cartoons. Then off outside to play football. All good Like healthy eating it's balance and variety over time that counts 010
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Voices for Freedom's Covid Inquiry submission promised to expose "the truths the public was never meant to see" It claims Kary Mullis, inventor of the PCR test, said it "specifically should not have been used to detect covid" But Mullis died in August 2019, months before anyone knew about covid 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Chose a side: the Holocaust museum vs a weirdo with an overactive imagination and delusions of grandeur 020
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Leading intellectual or crackpot obsessive, you decide. 020
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Members of far-right, antivax conspiracy theorist group Voices for Freedom happily stood alongside fascists issuing death threats Now the COVID enquiry is giving them exactly what they always wanted - an official platform to promote antivax propaganda What does that say about NZ politics? #nzpol 260
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Vaccination during pregnancy protects your baby, but the unqualified 'chief researcher' for VfF forgot to mention that. It's funny that she claims to have found research that shows this vaccine is 'a dud' because according to her Big Pharma conspiracy theory that research cannot possibly happen. 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 04/06/2025... even though the article he's referring to reports that JA's had previously been on the receiving end of death threats and extreme/violent rhetoric. 132
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Another issue is how all this is minimised by the mainstream right. I don't follow him but this was pushed to me by X. The framing ignores the context you cover and normalizes the intimidation/rage directed at JA as 'having detractors' 161
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 03/04/2025'It's not about left or right, it's about right and wrong' is common on the conspiracist far right. First time I encountered it was Hannah Alps justifying executing political opponents 'for the innocent kids'. She got it from Alex Jones. Anyway, here's an example of Alia's decency and morals 010
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Why don't they mention that she denies the existence of viruses and claims HIV and COVID don't kill people? Also disappeared down the memory hole is her role in Plan B. Their 'protocol for reopening' included her hallmark claim "the virus hasn't been isolated" Also... 040
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 05/02/2025Not as much though. I remember that once this became clear the push to end COVID restrictions really took off. 000
fatbongo @fatbongo.bsky.social · 11/12/2024Although they had her on post Virusmania, which I believe included Aids denialism. And here's Deeks recommending it to Wharton. Truly awful people. Aggressively thick, horribly conceited and willing to exploit people's suffering for clout. 120
