DATA WAS ALWAYS THE WRONG THING TO FOCUS ON
The Covid-19 Vaccine: Why Data Lacks Persuasive Force
Covid Consciousness and Perceptions Determined by "Partisanship"
"The poll results are striking evidence of something that philosophers and anthropologists have long observed—namely, facts and data alone possess little persuasive force if they challenge long-held beliefs, emotional attachments, and social identities.
We humans are hyper-social and tribal. For most of pre-history and history, cohesion was essential for a tribe’s survival in a world of different tribes competing for scarce resources. Intellectual authority about the world—both the natural and the supernatural—resided in a small priestly class that made the decisions about the best course of action when the tribe was threatened.
Thus, opening one’s mind to a new way of looking at the world—a process that involves a willingness to consider emerging data—is always a difficult and painful experience. Doing so requires recognizing and acknowledging that we have been wrong about things, and accordingly made wrong decisions and invested our time and energy into wrong things. No one relishes doing that.
What prompts us to change our point of view is when we suffer pain as a direct and readily identifiable consequence of our false beliefs—that is, when the pain of holding fast to erroneous beliefs exceeds the pain of abandoning them."

This is why FILM is still the best medium for persuasion. RIVER OF FREEDOM 3rd viewed film in NZ is proof we broke all partisan boundaries after 3 years of trying and failing with data.

It is far easier to convince someone they have been fooled with film & narrative than it is with data.

"The harrowing reality of Israel’s systematic detention of Palestinian children has been thrust into the spotlight..
The reality is that the most common charge against children is throwing stones..
Save the Children reported that 86 percent of children are beaten in Israeli detention, while 69 percent are strip-searched and 42 percent are subject to injuries during their arrests.. “It has less to do with kids throwing stones or not, and much more to do with targeting children and specific villages to facilitate the ultimate sort of goal of occupation, which is controlling a civilian population,” Parker adds..
Many Palestinian children are arrested during night raids and some are held in administrative detention, without trial or sentence. Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights says there are “myriad serious human rights concerns” about these practices..
He adds that these systematic violations are in violation of the U.N. Conventions on the Rights of the Child, as ratified by Israel in 1991." Armani Syed

Nigel Farage on GB News today said it is 'offensive & clumsy in the extreme' to suggest that Israel is targeting civilians.'
Well the kids can keep on dying as long as Israel isn't offended Nigel?

Avi Shamriz, the father of one of the three Israeli captives murdered by the Israeli military on Friday, says the sniper who killed him knew he was a captive.
“It was clear that he knew who he was dealing with."
Why would the IDF be killing their own people in Gaza?

Despite being shirtless, wearing no masks and in a group of three men waving a white flag, highly trained IDF soldiers confused this man for a 'Hamas Terrorist' and killed him with 2 others....

GAZA LIKE WARSAW GHETTO:
"In the name of “never again,” we have to ask if this [Gaza] is like a ghetto. And if what we’re witnessing now in this indiscriminate killing, in this — in an onslaught that has displaced almost all the people of Gaza, that has made them homeless, if that is substantially similar to what we saw in some places during the Holocaust, then what is the world going to do about it? What is the world going to do in the name of “never again”?" Masha Gessen

We speak with the acclaimed Russian American writer Masha Gessen, whose latest article for The New Yorker looks at the politics of Holocaust commemoration in Europe. Gessen was scheduled to receive the prestigious Hannah Arendt Prize in Germany on December…

Ai Wei Wei was a darling of the Western art world because he was critical of the Chinese government. As soon as he criticised Israel, cancelled. Masha Gessen a darling of the Western intelligentsia because she criticised the Russian government. Now that she criticised the Israeli government, her prize giving is "postponed".

Our first review from the USA!
"The documentary River of Freedom is a filmic record of the protests in New Zealand against the COVID lockdown policies and the mandating of vaccines." 👍
"It shows how the New Zealand politicians, when confronted by the protestors, hid in the building..." 🧐😅
"...The film shows the protestors engaging in many “extreme” activities such as singing songs, having sausage sizzles, and talking about love a lot. When the politicians refused to meet them ... they doubled down by having more sausage sizzles, singing more songs, and passionately speaking of the need for people to treat each other well." 😍🥰😘
