“How Colonial Bootlickers Like Elliot Spread White Supremacist Poison” - 14 September 2025
Ripping Apart the Racist Lies
Kia ora whaanau. Greetings whānau.
This pathetic screenshot from some gutless far-right coward named Elliot is not just historically illiterate - it is a deliberate piece of white supremacist propaganda designed to justify violence against progressives while sanitising the blood-soaked history of their own fascist movement. Time to destroy these colonial lies with the brutal truth they desperately want to hide.

Background
This vicious piece of disinformation follows the classic fascist playbook of projection - accuse your enemies of your own crimes before they can expose you. Far-right extremists in New Zealand have been documented spreading precisely these kinds of historical lies to manufacture false equivalences between their documented violence and progressive opposition to it.
Elliot's claim that progressives would "celebrate or excuse" political assassinations is not merely wrong - it is a calculated inversion of reality designed to provide moral cover for the far-right terrorism that has killed over 50 people in Christchurch and continues to threaten communities across Aotearoa. This propaganda serves the colonial project by delegitimising indigenous resistance and progressive movements that threaten white supremacist power structures.
The Historical Reality That Destroys These Lies
Every single figure Elliot mentions was murdered by ideological ancestors of today's far right, not progressives. Abraham Lincoln's assassination by Confederate sympathiser John Wilkes Booth triggered universal condemnation from progressive forces, while some Confederate sympathisers celebrated it as the death of a "tyrant". The radical Republicans - the progressive wing of Lincoln's era - mourned him as insufficiently radical in his approach to racial justice.
Martin Luther King Jr was gunned down by white supremacist James Earl Ray, triggering mass grief and rage across progressive communities nationwide. The urban uprisings that followed were expressions of despair at losing their most prominent leader, not celebrations. Meanwhile, white supremacists - the ideological forebears of today's far right - cheered his death.
Rachel Scott was a 17-year-old student murdered in the Columbine shooting - not a political assassination but a school shooting with no documented political motivation. Elliot's exploitation of a teenage victim for far-right propaganda reveals the moral bankruptcy of his entire worldview.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer was executed by the Nazi regime for resisting fascism. Progressive movements worldwide honour him as a martyr to anti-fascist resistance. The suggestion that the left would celebrate his death is historically illiterate - he died fighting the direct ideological ancestors of today's far right.

The Fascist Pattern of Projection
Research consistently shows that right-wing extremists commit the vast majority of political violence, yet they systematically project their crimes onto progressives. Between 2014 and 2018, far-right extremists killed 81 people and injured 104 others. In 2018, every single extremist killing had links to right-wing extremism.
The recent assassination of Charlie Kirk provides a case study in this projection. Republican officials immediately blamed "the radical left" before establishing any motive, while Democratic leaders universally condemned the violence. Far-right figures used Kirk's death to call for "war" against progressives, revealing their bloodthirsty intentions.
New Zealand's Colonial Context
This international far-right propaganda strategy has been directly imported into Aotearoa by local white supremacist groups. Researchers have documented how far-right misinformation about COVID-19 became a "Trojan horse" for recruiting people to anti-Māori ideologies, exactly the kind of historical revisionism Elliot is peddling.
Local far-right groups like Action Zealandia have been documented spreading precisely these kinds of false historical narratives to recruit new members. The same tactics used against indigenous resistance movements worldwide are now deployed against progressive movements generally.
The Colonial Agenda Behind the Lies
Elliot's lie serves multiple colonial purposes. It seeks to:
Provide moral permission for far-right violence by claiming progressives are equally violent
Delegitimise progressive critiques of white supremacy and colonisation
Create false equivalences between systemic oppression and resistance to it
Manufacture consent for state repression of progressive movements
This mirrors how colonial narratives have always portrayed indigenous resistance as "terrorism" while framing colonial violence as "law and order". The same people who celebrate the "pioneers" who murdered tangata whenua now claim progressives celebrate political violence.
The Deadly Consequences
These lies have real consequences. Far-right extremists use exactly this kind of false narrative to justify their terrorism. The Christchurch terrorist cited similar justifications in his manifesto. Local security experts warn that this kind of disinformation creates an environment that "normalises and justifies violent rhetoric".
Brutal Conclusion
Elliot's statement is not ignorance - it is active disinformation designed to provide moral cover for fascist violence while demonising their opponents. Every historical example he cites proves the exact opposite of his claim. The progressive tradition has consistently mourned political assassinations while opposing the systems of oppression that create conditions for such violence.
Meanwhile, the far-right tradition of political violence runs unbroken from the Confederate assassin of Lincoln to the Nazi executioners of Bonhoeffer to the white supremacist who gunned down 51 Muslims in Christchurch. These colonial bootlickers project their movement's blood-soaked history onto progressives because they know their own record is indefensible.
The time for polite discourse with these fascist propagandists is over. They weaponise the deaths of martyrs for political gain while planning violence against those who expose their lies. Their moral bankruptcy disqualifies them from participating in democratic discourse.
We reject their colonial lies and remember the whakatōhia - the truth that sets us free from their manipulations. Those who spread white supremacist propaganda while hiding behind false civility deserve nothing but contempt and exposure.
Kia kaha. Stay strong against these fascist liars.
