Concerned that this may not be as "innocent" as trying to appear. Hate crime report due mid-year from Law Commission. Already under her watch the focus was stripped down. 🙄

...and what likely doomed Ardern to ongoing hate realm were her views that one could govern with empathy and her govt response with firearms & Christchurch Call. Simply, circumstances placed her in opposition to two of the most influential US lobbies big tech and the gun lobby, right before COVID.

also adding 2 points: that Ardern was seemingly effective in shifting some of the negative messaging through her visual alignment with Muslimswearing a headscarf, and through her communications at the time. Her messaging of kindness and empathy stood in contrast to the vitriol of Trump at the time.

And the same people who have been targeting Muslims (and in particular Muslim women) online for well over a decade before that... our warnings it would spread if unaddressed were not heeded.

Because it's civil, not criminal liability, it cannot be pardoned.. Resolution rests with the victim & the court.
Some limited immunity exceptions exist, they must be established by the agent as a defense.
Simply, personal accountability is a possibility and fed agents should be aware of that. 3/3

Courts can find individual officers personally responsible, with damages awarded against that person, not just the govt. Compensatory & punitive damages are possible!
When harm is proven, recovery extends to the personal property and wealth of the agent who caused harm (i.e. their homes, etc) 2/3

2/ The U.S. ratified the Geneva Conventions making them U.S. law. The War Crimes Act (18 U.S.C. § 2441) makes it a felony for U.S. personnel to commit or order war crimes anywhere in the world. There is no legal shield in “I was just doing my job.” That defence died at Nuremberg Trials.
