Polygraph, a product of Voice of America, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygraph.info\/a\/fact-check-rt-falsely-claims-new-zealand-legalizes-orgies-amid-covid-measures\/31608657.html\">rated<\/a> the RT report false because Ardern did not use the word \u201corgy\u201d and instead approved \u201cliaisons \u2026 up to 25.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>The video, circulating on social media this week, shows Ardern and the&nbsp;<em>Seven Sharp<\/em> hosts laughing while discussing the \u201ctraffic light\u201d system, which ranks the safety of every place in the country from the Chinese coronavirus pandemic based on vaccination rates and social distancing protocol.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can confirm that Tinder liaisons have reopened,\u201d Ardern said on the program. \u201cIt\u2019s not strictly embedded in the traffic light system but um, it is a given, up to 25 actually, in a red area.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"7.7368421052632\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">yeah, but did your PM go on national television to officially announce that *checks notes* orgies can resume? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cG4YyIvEZT\">pic.twitter.com\/cG4YyIvEZT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Calliope Ryder (@callioperyder) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/callioperyder\/status\/1469094856261730305?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 10, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Tinder is a mobile phone dating application that allows users to rapidly rate singles, or other users, in their area and \u201cmatches\u201d two people who rate each other positively, giving them a chance to talk and get to know each other. Tinder notoriously became a point of confusion during the height of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic in the United States when American public health celebrity Anthony Fauci, an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/06\/26\/anthony-fauci-on-restarting-coronavirus-lockdowns-never-take-that-off-the-table\/\">enthusiastic<\/a> supporter of limits on social movement and business activities to contain the virus, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2020\/04\/16\/anthony-fauci-hooking-up-dating-app-coronavirus-era-risk\/\">said<\/a> of Tinder, \u201cthat\u2019s your choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ardern has a political history with Tinder. In 2012, she <a href=\"https:\/\/thespinoff.co.nz\/society\/15-08-2020\/why-does-jacinda-ardern-keep-popping-up-on-tinder\">bought<\/a> an ad on the dating site, encouraging bored singles to abandon the quest for love and engage with politicians from her Labour Party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cClocked Tinder? Fear not there are still political candidates keen to talk to you (about voting). So go on, ask me anything (about voting),\u201d the advertisement read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I should make it very, very clear that the ad makes it very obvious that I\u2019m not there for the traditional purposes of Tinder,\u201d Ardern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newshub.co.nz\/home\/politics\/2021\/03\/jacinda-ardern-used-tinder-to-advertise-in-2014-now-she-s-endorsing-tiktok-for-covid-19-messaging.html\">said<\/a> when the ad came out. \u201cIt\u2019s basically just a little ad that says look, if you want to talk about politics, if you haven\u2019t found what you\u2019re looking for on here but you want to talk about politics instead, drop us a line.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ardern has expressed openness to using social media applications such as the Chinese app Tiktok for political advocacy, though of that venue she said this year, \u201cI don\u2019t think there is any possible way that I could do a TikTok with COVID [Chinese coronavirus] messaging that would be seen as acceptable to any age demographic.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Ardern\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1news.co.nz\/2021\/12\/03\/traffic-light-system-will-last-the-distance-ardern\/\">appearance<\/a> on&nbsp;<em>Seven Sharp<\/em> was meant to be an informative intervention to explain the implementation of a new \u201ctraffic light\u201d system that will restrict citizens\u2019 rights as previous ones did but, according to Ardern, in a more flexible way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledParagraph-so8yqq-0 dkCqjT body-paragraph\">\u201cAt the moment it\u2019s a little too early to say what challenges Omicron might pose to us. But as I say, we\u2019ve designed a system that allows us to have as many freedoms as possible safely while we are stepping into that new way of working,\u201d Ardern said elsewhere on the broadcast.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p class=\"default__StyledParagraph-so8yqq-0 dkCqjT body-paragraph\">The system works like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/latin-america\/2021\/11\/08\/caruzo-venezuelas-vaccine-passport-app-faces-a-familiar-foe-socialist-incompetence\/\">Venezuela\u2019s<\/a> \u201ctraffic light\u201d system in that it uses the traditional colors of a traffic light \u2013 red, green and, in New Zealand, orange \u2013 to indicate how much freedom a location should have. Unlike Venezuela\u2019s, which classifies every individual by color based on their vaccination status and recent testing, the New Zealand system is location-based and rankings are based on collective, not individual, vaccination rates. Hard lockdowns, Ardern\u2019s socialist government <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/10\/24\/new-zealand-prime-minister-admits-she-wants-create-two-classes-citizens-based-vaccination-status\/\">affirmed<\/a> in October, would end when 90 percent of New Zealanders are vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledParagraph-so8yqq-0 dkCqjT body-paragraph\">At the green level \u2013 the freest \u2013 Ardern will still impose limits on mass events like weddings or religious services. Those events are limited to only 100 people at a time, all of whom must be one meter away from each other. Indoor activities and outdoor activities at green are subject to the same rules, despite overwhelming scientific consensus that outdoor activities are much less high-risk for coronavirus transmission.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith vaccine certificates at red, orange and green business will be able to continue to open and operate,\u201d Ardern&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newshub.co.nz\/home\/new-zealand\/2021\/10\/covid-19-how-vaccine-certificates-will-play-a-huge-role-in-freedoms-under-new-framework.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">said<\/a>&nbsp;in October. \u201cIf you want summer, if you want to go to bars and restaurants get vaccinated, if you want to get a hair cut \u2013 get vaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B4\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>Ardern also responded affirmatively at the time when asked if the traffic light system was meant to create \u201ctwo different classes of people,\u201d stripping rights away from the lower class, or unvaccinated.<\/p>\n<p>Ardern\u2019s far-left administration obtained a clear majority in Parliament last year in an election significantly hampered by lockdowns and limitations on campaigning. Labour celebrated a landslide victory after Ardern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/health\/2020\/08\/17\/new-zealand-election-delayed-over-coronavirus-fears\/\">delayed<\/a> the elections abruptly, moving them from September to October, \u201cto plan around the range of circumstances we will be campaigning under.\u201d The opposition National Party had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-53796434\">complained<\/a> that Ardern\u2019s coronavirus protocol had made it extremely difficult for them to campaign<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s going to be very difficult to have an election in mid-September when we are now mid-August. It is very little time,\u201d then-National Party leader Judith Collins <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/national-security\/2020\/08\/12\/new-zealand-pm-jacinda-ardern-warns-she-may-delay-elections-over-coronavirus\/\">said<\/a> at the time prior to the delay. Collins has since lost her leadership position after presiding of a historic defeat.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, in the beginning of 2020, polls showed the public evenly split between the two parties; Ardern\u2019s repressive coronavirus policies and disturbance of the election schedule <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/anniversary-of-a-landslide-new-research-reveals-what-really-swung-new-zealands-2020-covid-election-169351\">preceded<\/a> a landslide \u201cwin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ardern\u2019s restrictions on campaigning and delaying the election when early polls showed a close race did not affect New Zealand\u2019s standing as a \u201cfree\u201d nation in Freedom House\u2019s 2021 global assessment. The NGO even <a href=\"https:\/\/freedomhouse.org\/country\/new-zealand\/freedom-world\/2021\">cited<\/a> the election as a reason that it gave New Zealand a perfect score on \u201cfree and fair elections.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The questionable adherence to human rights such as freedom of association and the right to participate in a free and fair election have also not stopped the years of effusive praise for Ardern from the international far left.
