Antifascist Waiheke

NZ's biggest losers briefly emerge from their bedrooms.

Over the last few months, there has been a nationwide campaign by a tiny group of neo-N***s to popularise calls for an ethnic cleansing operation in New Zealand. They have performed brief banner photo-ops in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch, and then videoed them. Each performance will have lasted a couple of minutes, and it's unlikely any were witnessed by members of the public. The videos and photos were uploaded to Telegram and picked up by influencers across the political spectrum. All of the photos and videos you may have seen on social media were taken by the N***s themselves.

The NZ groups have been trained in this tactic by members of the Australian NSN neo-Nazi group, and they rely on anti-racist activists to spread their message. Their goal is to shift the Overton window of acceptable discourse in society.

The Wellington and Christchurch stunts were performed by the re-branded branches of the neo-Nazi Action Zealandia group. The Auckland stunt was performed by a newly branded group that relied on the Action Zealandia network to disseminate its posts. The Auckland video contained a pro-Hitler dog whistle. The stunts used neo-N***s travelling from Te Papaioea and Kirikiriroa, and involved long-time bigots, Sam Brittenden and Gavin Anderson.

Some of the social media posts we’ve seen have been shared from “The Noticer”. The Noticer is a website set up by neo-N***s to launder their ideas and campaigns, and relies on unsuspecting social media users sharing their content. It is not a pro-Palestinian website, but sometimes masquerades as one.

We already know that social media companies rely on outrage to keep people hooked onto their product. Before sharing something, it's good to think about whether it unintentionally amplifies a small hate group--and what effect seeing this content has on the mental health of minorities online.

These right-wing stunts form part of a recent increase in organised hate campaigns against South Asian communities. We offer our love, support and solidarity to South Asian communities.

On this day, 23 April 1979, Aotearoa/New Zealand born teacher and socialist Clement Blair Peach was hit by police on an anti-Nazi demonstration in Southall, Middlesex, possibly with an illegal weapon, and later died.
Peach had joined thousands of people in an area with a large south Asian and Sikh population to protest against a meeting of the far-right National Front in the town hall. After he was hit he was taken into a nearby house which an ambulance was called. He was then taken to Ealing Hospital with an extradural haematoma, and died shortly after midnight.
A subsequent police investigation found that one of six members of the notoriously violent Special Patrol Group was responsible. The officers' lockers were searched, and illegal weapons discovered like a lead cosh. The officers also quickly cleaned their uniforms and changed their appearances after the attack, and several of them lied to investigators. As a result of the deception, the guilty party could not be identified. The investigator did recommend that three officers who had conspired and lied should be charged with obstruction and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, but the director of public prosecutions appointed by the Labour government declined to prosecute them.
Officials refused to hold the inquest into Peach's death in front of a jury, and despite multiple witnesses testifying to the police attack, the inquest returned a verdict of "death by misadventure". The coroner disregarded witness testimony which he deemed to be from people who were socialist, or who were Sikh, and according to him "did not have experience of the English system" to be reliable.
It took decades to force the police to eventually release the results of their investigations which they did in 2010.
Since at least the 1930s, police in the UK routinely have helped neo-N***s organise meetings and demonstrations, attacking and arresting anti-fascists who protest against them.
