The Pilgrim Band

Hello, my name is John. I am conservative in character and preservative in purpose. The material on this page focuses on addressing the politically correct nonsense which is everywhere and sticking its nose in everything in modern western society.

Every day I receive the various forms of media (mostly from a liberal view point) and I am confronted with adverse trends and occurrences in my beloved homeland. I have to listen to the liberals every day, so I thought, well, I need to voice my opinion as well, and what better way to do it than here and now.

Political Correctness is the 'grey zone' thinking which has emerged from the situation ethics philosophy of the latter part of last century. Since the 1950's with its hippie and liberation movements this wave has increased in momentum and has now crashed upon the shore of the western world, bringing with it an unprecedented roar of rights for this and rights for that. The phrase 'political correctness' was originally coined in mockery of a set of leftish attitudes. One such attitude which has become obese with time is that of the rejection of the nation's elders, their authority and their tried and proven ways. Modern advocates of Political Correctness love to pull apart and rearrange that which is not broken.

Political correctness is prominent in the area of language - where the advocates talk about a right way of speaking and thinking. For example, it is deemed inappropriate today in public to say nigger and sodomite.
So there is today the new school of thought and the old school of thought. I like the latter best because it built this nation, gave people clarity and allowed adults to keep their sense of adulthood. The new school is into social programming in a big way and maintaining a 'nanny state' for its own 'big brother' ends.

Political correctness does not stop at controlling how we lemmings speak in public, but it insidiously moves into every area of our lives, from politics to religion; from the workplace to the home. It confuses, condemns and closes the mouth of the individual. It uses tons of paper to produce its myriad of memos, policies and revamped statutes. It is a gun aimed at the head of the white adult male in the place of authority, by woman libbers, the effeminate, blacks and any other man hater in between the cracks of our western society. 

Okay, so now that we have defined it somewhat, let us continue - I shall endeavour to say what needs to be said because many are silenced and silent about the obvious trends and daily occurrences in my country - it is time to say, enough is enough!  This is My Say!

Hello - I wish to speak about one of the main frustrations in NZ society today - that of Political Correctness gone mad.  It is sticking its nose into every industry and home across our beloved homeland, causing nausea in the gut of every decent law abiding, tax-paying adult, unfortunate enough to be caught in its web of red tape. It is oppression of the neighbour, as stated so well in the bible book of Isaiah, chp 3:4, 5, 12.

Political correctness is in favour of the lower caste of society - the defeated, subjugated and unproductive elements of our land. It seeks to swing the pendulum to down the white man and to raise the rights and privileges of the weaker vessels. Just to note one area where this is prevalent - we see that the MMP system of government is fulfilling this desire so well, by raising every stirring minority under the sun to war against the veteran politician.

It is evident to the observant that PC Nonsense began to come into NZ society about the same time as women forsook the churches and their homes to go out to invade the man's work arena. Before this mad wave came over our heads, men were in places of authority, using common sense and logic to run the work force of this nation. This is no longer the case.

Men and women are engineered differently - men are more logical in their mental processes, while women are more emotional in the way they approach a challenge.

Here is the way that it works itself out in daily life today - If a procedure works well 98% of the time, but one day an idiot makes an error, then watch the PC nonsense begin to come down from upper management upon the hapless workers.

Instead of dealing with the idiot and addressing the person, the mad PC programmed programmers will come and seek to change the procedure, thus penalising everyone in that department.

This then does a few things, namely that it binds the hands of the workers, slows down processes and adversely affects the morale.
This pattern repeats itself a hundred times a week across New Zealand - can you image what this does to the economy of our nation? Is it any wonder why NZ is losing so many of its skilled workers overseas? Yea, white kiwi male adults?

 I have read an article in the Dominion Post newspaper 20/2/08 entitled '150,000 pupils failing at school'.
I thought with a groan, here we go again. Once again we see the PC nonsense rear its ugly head. The article reports on a parliamentary report which says that many pupils are failing in the school system and many of the teachers are not up to par.

The report acknowledged the increase of disruptive behaviour in the class room (a decade or two after the liberals banned corporal punishment in the schools, I might add) and that suspended students are left without an education for that stand down period.

These politically correct bureaucrats then went on to put forward a few proposals such as making it tougher on teachers to graduate and penalties for teachers who can't get their students to perform.

But there is more - they then make three more proposals in favour of the underperforming students:

1: Expelled students to be enrolled elsewhere and pampered (oh the poor things).

2: Providing alternative classes for those who do not fit into main stream schooling. (generally means the black students)

3: Setting up health and support services on campus (Generally means sexual & abortion services as the promiscuity increases).

I agree with the rest of the article as it quotes various people commenting on the utter stupidity of the government report.

I have three more comments:

1: The teachers are put down and penalised . This is a common sign of PC nonsense - the white person who is in the place of authority is a target for attack by these swivel chair pen pushers.

2: The underperforming students are pampered. Generally these troublemakers are dark skinned 'once were warrior' types who don't give a rat about fitting into the white man's system for achievement.

3: Who has to foot the bill for these PC proposals? Yes you guessed it - the hard working white tax payer.

New Zealand is being ruined by these two groups - liberal PC pushers and the dark skinned activists, both in and out of the classroom.

I agree with the union president who said in the article, quote, 'It is the same tired old stuff'. 
I add to that, that if this nonsense continues, it will be the death of us all!

 I was talking to an elderly lady this morning who is very ill. She has to pay her way in the hospital to get anything done - the alternative is to go on a waiting list and twiddle her thumbs. Last week she had to travel down to Wellington to get some medical work done because they could not fit her in locally. She further explained that the medical staff just deal with the symptoms and don't do a thorough investigation.

Someone else who is in the same boat said that if you are past your 'use by date' then the public hospital system does not want to know you - you can jolly well die. After all you are no longer contributing to your country through tax payments.

I had to reply that this has become a callous society - the result of decades of Evolutionary teaching and the Humanism philosophy.

An upright society looks after its elderly citizens and honours them for their achievements and contributions to build their community through their working life (not forgetting their community work in the retirement years).
Speaking about their contribution, we come to the fact that they have paid their taxes every year and now in what should be their golden years, they have no reward returned to them from the government in the area of health management.

This is where I come to my own life, where I am still in the working class. I pay over $140 dollars in tax every week and I wonder where do I get this back in any direct way?
How do I directly benefit from this money which I lose out of my pay packet every week? I could use that money?

Now I know that tax is a part of life. Tax money is supposed to be used to maintain public services, law and order services and infrastructure.
I really don't mind paying my taxes, but there are three things that I do object to:

1: Paying $140 dollars a week - this is high!

2: Not seeing any direct benefit back to aid me in life.

3: The government using my tax money to buy votes from minority groups who are just poison for this nation - i.e. liberal/PC groups, the homosexual community and indigenous tribal groups.
 
This is what I soundly object to!
How do you feel about it? Do you agree with me?

It is time to say enough is enough, and to get this country back to the upright ways of God.

The liberals in the government are keen on giving more rights to the employees with flexible hours during the working week. Employees can demand time off to fit around their activities while the beleaguered employer has to put up with the loss of input and output. This is just another slanted brainwave from this communistic hierarchy who have an agenda to sink our free country into the sea.

Rights, rights, rights - aren't we all sick of hearing this generational catch-cry? It seems everyone has rights except the hard working, tax-paying white kiwi male. The women, blacks, children, homosexuals and Muslims have rights, but the most productive people in this country are belittled on a daily basis because this socialist government is turning the whole country topsy-turvy with its P.C. nonsense.

As if the N.Z. employer did not have enough red tape to fret against, now they have to adjust their schedule to fit around the whims of the employees, and if they don't they can be called to give an account before another fat bureaucratic body. The white employer is hampered in his productivity and therefore national productivity suffers.

At my place of work, I see P.C. nonsense doing its thing and guess what - the 'tape' has increased as the women have increased in authoritative roles. New regulations and memo's are being put out all the time on matters that would have passed okay in years past. The bureaucracy have to pen-push on their swivel chairs in their comfy air-conditioned office using up trees of paper work because the big boss wants to see some tangible result before pay-day - and there is the problem - bureaucracy cannot produce tangible out-put because they deal with ideas and procedures and in short their job is a shadow and a bubble - their job never needed to have been invented, nor does it need to exist.
This is all in direct contrast to the man at the coal-face who can produce tangible results, who can look back at the end of the day and be proud of his achievements and whose position must exist and be remunerated accordingly.

The citizens of this country need to have a big think about where we are going with this 'rights' business. Since the 1950's and 60's the move has been to raise the women, homosexuals, children and blacks and to lower the white man - why? Because the white male adult is the standard! He is the standard that all others look up to and it has been designed that way from the beginning. The problem today is that the pendulum has been swung too far - the white man is beleaguered and we are beginning to see the dire consequences of it in our society with broken homes, rowdy school rooms and inefficient work places. To preserve this nation, we must swing the pendulum back to centre and create a balance with this 'rights' thing.

Meanwhile, three cheers to the employer and to the man on the floor - I Say!

I am writing concerning the folly of our liberal leaders to hamper the working back-bone of this country. As a Servant of the Lord, I am concerned for my nation's welfare and preservation. I believe that I speak on behalf of many New Zealanders when I say that the white Kiwi male is the most endangered species in the country today.  Every group has an excess promotion of rights except the white Kiwi male:

1: The hard working white Kiwi businessman is increasingly hampered by bureaucratic red-tape and the rights of employees. The same liberals, who raise alarm over our planet's survival, waste our forests in unnecessary paper-work. A factor that signals decline in a nation is when the work force becomes burdened with excess bureaucracy - women forsaking their homes to take employment and in order to advance over the man, she must innovate, (change that which is not broken) and introduce legislation after legislation - a great tangle for the inhabitants of the land. Please acknowledge the folly of the red tape machine we have in our country today and make a commitment to limit its progress from now on.

2: The law abiding Kiwi male is belittled in his own home with the lessening of his right to govern his own little castle, largely because of the media and governmental re-programming of this generation to accept the abnormal as the norm. The re-defining of the traditional family unit, the erosion of the father figure and the promoting of children's rights over those of the parents are serious social ills today! The government has no right to encroach upon the authority of law abiding parents in their own home. Our liberal leaders are making the same mistakes many nations have made in world history - I think especially of ancient Rome, which nurtured the same conditions and collapsed from the inside - New Zealand is not safe-guarded from any such collapse!

3: The tax-paying white kiwi male is burdened with excess taxation to pay for the burgeoning social conditions and hand outs for indigenous groups, and then loses out again when he tries to access public services that should be fully funded.

Kiwi male citizens want to be taxed less and that their tax money is spent on promoting emergency services, law enforcement and infrastructure in this country. The elderly want to have confidence in the health services and law enforcement services. We don't care to waste our hard earned money on loafing island nations while our hospital waiting lists are in their current derelict state and the police are unable to cope with the increase in the indigenous sponsored crime wave. 

Throw God out of the equation and you get a big mess, costing millions of tax-payers dollars in 'band-aid' programs each year. God has got humanism 'pegged' and He gives the nation over to its own chaotic mess.

Please turn yourself to the fear of God and His ways and promote righteousness in our country.

When a nation removes the biblical absolutes and replaces it with humanism, then society becomes complicated, chaotic and careless. We are going backwards! Please do not continue to promote policies that are sourced from humanism, that encroach upon the rights of Kiwi males and that reward 'hand-me-out' groups who encumber national productivity.

There is a growing unrest among the hard working, law abiding, tax paying, white Kiwi's in this country, who are sick of the injustice done to them and to their tax money.
We must see change in order to preserve our nation - the change starts with you!
It is time to say enough is enough!

This is where we are going. Hang on, its going to become a rougher ride from here on out!

The problem with our current political system is MMP, where deals are done after an election that bypasses the wishes of the voting public. For example, we have a certain minister who lost his seat during the last election and is outside of parliament but yet through a deal obtained the foreign affairs portfolio. We have List MP's who work for their party boss and not for the constituency. We have too many MP's in relation to our small population. We have a situation when parliament sits in the chamber, where MP's waste time jostling each other like kids in an out of control classroom instead of discussing the serious nuts and bolts issues confronting the nation.  And with MMP, we have a myriad of minor parties all vying for limelight and the opportunity to change another statute and entangle the citizens of this once free nation.

With this ridiculous system in parliament and the 'red tape' machine going ninety to nothing, we have become a nanny state - congratulations! The politicians are treating the voting public like kids (except near an election date). You can talk to farmers, fishers, teachers, traders, doctors, dentists, exporters, engineers, bakers, bankers and any employer, and they will tell you the same thing - they can't move because of all the new restrictions and that they are treated like kids by the socialist bureaucracy. Our liberal leaders are sending a clear message to us - they don't trust us to order our own affairs and to act responsibly with good sense.
 Let us remember too that the government recently encroached upon the authority of the father figure in his own home by prohibiting the age-old practice of parental smacking. What about the rights of the dad in his own home? Is he not to be trusted to order his own castle affairs?

Farmers are being squeezed now. The liberal townies have long sought for a way to control the working backbone of the nation, and they have found it - by the ETS (emissions trading scheme) which is another tax upon tax for the rural community. As if 'fart tax' wasn't bizarre enough, now the greenies want to treat the Fred Dagg types like adolescents, imposing fines for loose effluent discharges. These fat swivel chair pen pushers have an agenda to control every sector of our nation and everyone in those sectors - including you! They want you to be a good clone in their 'big brother' communistic state. Bureaucracy is sticking its fat nose in every corner of our country - nothing is tapu to them.

The vast expanse of bureaucracy is a drag on our economy, using resources which should go to the front-line services. Skilled workers are being directed from the coal-face to office positions where they grow lazy, fat and long nosed. This situation re-directs my tax money from where it should be spent to where it should not be spent, thus making this country unproductive and slug-like. We need to see a change for better in our country!

So we have endeavoured to address this personal and national complexity! We have defined it as best we can, noting its many octopus-like-tentacles reaching out for you, your privacy and your tax money. So now you ask, what is the solution to this PC nonsense?
First, I have sprinkled doses of advice throughout this page and will endeavour to continue to consider the trend.
Second, my gift is to see trends and to report on them. Someone else may have the gift to come up with all of the answers - that someone may be YOU!  Feel free to use our Email Form in the Tools section of this site to send us your comments and suggestions on what we can do to preserve our nation.
