Too Lenient
OPINION: Reckless action by Greenpeace in 2024 forced Fonterra to shut down a drying plant for four hours, costing the co-op about $300,000.
OPINION: The self righteous activists at Greenpeace are copying the self-righteous lefties behind the ‘free Palestine’ movement – not surprising given they are often the same people.
Not content with peaceful protest, the pro-Palestine extremists are now targeting politicians’ homes and families, while the more outspoken of them are advocating targeting members of the NZ Government by “spitting in their food”.
Greenpeace looked at these low-lifes and decided they’d follow suit, targeting farmers who have gone through the legal process to allow them to convert to dairying – installing moronic ‘Nitrate Emergency’ signs at the gate of farms like a dairy conversion in the Kaituna Valley – a new, and legitimate, dairy conversion in Canterbury.
This self-righteousness comes of a belief on the Left that their cause is just, and “the front is everywhere”, but taking the low road is unlikely to win public sympathy.
