A term used to describe a mentality a minority of
New Zealand citizens suffer from, (often National voters and the antivax), in which they blame their day to day problems on the Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. Usually problems that have no relation to Ardern’s actions or personal views.
They also frequently spout their opinion that she runs the worst
government ever, despite the fact that the economy is in good shape, unemployment and child poverty is down, minimum wages were boosted above inflation, and healthcare continues to receive more funding than ever before. - While previous governments had all the same perceived failures without any of these successes.
Those that suffer from Ardern Derangement Syndrome may be
seen at public stores turning over copies of Woman’s Weekly and books featuring Jacinda Ardern. Or met at a limited number of family gatherings where a
single individual will spend the entire day talking about how bad Jacinda is, that they ruin the day for everyone around them by spouting political nonsense rather than enjoying
time with
family.
Jane: Awful weather we’
re having today, isn’t it?
Carl: It’s all Cindy Ardern’s fault! She’s using a weather controlling machine to personally ruin our day, my day specifically. Worst
government ever!
David: Jane,
don’t bother talking to Carl, he has Ardern Derangement Syndrome and cannot be helped. Everything will revert back to Jacinda. He told me it was personally the Prime Minister’s fault his neighbour's dog shat on his lawn too.
