The protesters in NZ were a real mixture. I say were because they've been largely dispersed although small groups of them are camping out in various places. Some of them were simply against the vaccine mandate, some of them were just crazy – demanding that the government resign and politicians be put on trial and maybe hanged. And some of them were extremely aggressive. My son was abused a couple of times by them as he walked to the railway station because he was wearing a mask. Obviously their idea of freedom - for some of them at least, doesn't extend to the freedom to wear a mask. Funnily enough, they've been hailed as "working-class heroes" by conservatives who are using them as a stick to beat the government with – which is interesting considering no one is really done any research into their class status, and just anecdotally, most of them seem to be lower middle-class.
Great stuff, Sharon!
Wow, I never got a pearl from the Lobster House :-( and I've eaten there plenty of times. I feel so cheated ;-)
And I soooo want a pair of those 3D cryptid shoes. I'm thinking of the fun I'd have all around the creeks in Lancaster County.
