The below meme is one we’ve posted a couple of times over the last few years, and while it still holds true, the word “Most” has to be added at the start as there are a small but significant number who have demontrated they are racist — they include the two present Maori Party MPs, Labour MP Willie Jackson, and several activists who regularly make the news.
If these weren’t so intent on Maorication of everything with no respect for other people’s ethnicities and cultures (not just Europeans) things would be much more harmonious and beneficial.
“there are a small but significant number who have demon[s]trated they are racist — they include the two present Maori Party MPs, Labour MP Willie Jackson, and several activists who regularly make the news.”
Don’t forget former green party co leader Marama Davidson.
Noble words from the masked man but he forgot some very important ones. “We want your money”…
It’s always interesting to hear Maori extol all their virtues like manaakitanga (care, respect), manawa ora (hope), tae ana ki (inclusive) as though no other person or people in the history of the world has ever had these ever before.
From comments I’ve heard, it just really pisses people off because not one people has ever cornered the market on virtues or morals.
Also you get Maori like who don’t want non-Maori to learn Maori language because it’s a taonga. So do they want people to take an interest or not?
Like it or not English is the lingua franca and how most people communicate. If someone from overseas can only speak Mandarin, Hindi or Arabic they are at a real disadvantage.
French has around 100,000 words and German around 135,000 but many scientific and commercial words that have entered those languages and are from English. Air traffic control is in English which is just as well as this is one industry that truly needs one language.
I am tired of the pandering European oikaphobes.
