Pride week infects 200 New Zealand schools

Rainbow bullshit in full-swing

Yep, it’s that time again. David Williams of the NZ Herald is back with more rainbow propaganda - and this time, he’s brought backup. His latest article, co-written with Rachel Maher, came out with the headline:

More than 200 schools join Schools’ Pride Week despite fears of protests

Let’s rewind. A few weeks ago, I posted an article regarding emails sent to Penny Marie, founder of Let Kids Be Kids, where Williams himself admitted a school pulled out of this event due to the possibility of protests. No protest threats were made. None. Just the idea that some people might not be thrilled about it was enough for the school to bail.

But now he’s back, pretending these schools are bravely standing strong “despite fears” of pushback. It’s not just dishonest - it’s manipulation dressed up as journalism.

Tabby Besley on the far-right

InsideOUT managing director Tabby Besley is, of course, trotted out for comment. Her words? They’re always the same:

“We’re seeing an alarming rise in transphobia, homophobia, and anti-rainbow hate.”

You might not remember Tabby by name, but you’ll probably remember her as the blue-haired weirdo who defended Benjamin “Bussy” Doyle - the Green MP who had paedophile symbols and sexualised pics involving his own child on his Instagram. Once the heat came on, he deleted over 50 posts. His defence? The paedo spiral was actually a blue koru. Right.

So that’s who we’re dealing with here. And now she’s out there crying about “disinformation and defamation campaigns” supposedly being run by “anti-rainbow hate groups” and “ultra-conservative organisations.”

Translation? Anyone who dares to disagree.

She even admits that schools face the risk of “negative attention” for getting involved. Usually it’s angry emails or comments. But don’t worry - according to her, they “assess the risk” and carry on. That’s meant to be reassuring, apparently.

What’s really going on here is that organisations like InsideOUT are pushing a highly ideological agenda into schools - and they’re doing it under the banner of inclusion and diversity. But more and more parents are waking up to the fact that this isn’t just about kindness and acceptance. It’s about indoctrination.

And thankfully, Substackers like

Penny Marie

,

Bob McCoskrie

and their organisations aren’t staying silent. They’re standing up, speaking out, and they’re making sure Kiwi parents know exactly what’s being slipped into the classroom under the TQ+ movement.

Unpacking the Rainbow Agenda at Hobsonville Point Secondary School

This isn’t about hate. It’s about honesty. And if the only way these programmes can survive is by pretending there’s no criticism, lying about protest threats, and dismissing concerned parents as “bigots”, then maybe it’s time they were pulled out of schools altogether.

Until then, I’ll keep calling it what it is:

Rainbow bullshit.
