The Taxpayers Union has revealed that the film ‘Wolf Warrior II’, produced by state-owned Chinese companies, is advertised with the tagline:
‘Anyone who offends China, no matter how remote, must be exterminated.’
Yes, you read that correctly…it said EXTERMINATED!
The New Zealand government has funded a film using taxpayers money of $243,000 with the tag line:
‘Anyone who offends China, no matter how remote, must be exterminated.’
Yup. A cool $243,000 Kiwi dollars to promote VIOLENT Chinese Nationalism.
By using their money to promote violent Chinese Nationalism the government has made NZ Taxpayers complicit.
Let that sink in for one minute.
Those Chinese dissidents who chose to live in New Zealand to escape state-funded incitements to violence deserve an explanation, if not an apology.
Taxpayers should not be forced to fund political propaganda of any kind. This case is an extreme example, but it’s a strong argument against our government’s programme of corporate welfare for the film industry.
