No. It’s just that some of us Pākehā actually care about preserving and supporting a people and a culture that our ancestors did their best to eradicate.

Those of us that care enough, will find out the appropriate ways to provide such support.

Auckland Airport has some (IMHO somewhat crass) token Māoritanga in the international terminal. They’re quite happy to exploit Māori when there’s tourism dollars to be made.

It is brain washing.

Where I’m from children sing the national anthem once a week at the school assembly and usually a few other songs too.

There are typically no flags.

There’s a German saying that I’m going to poorly reproduce.

If you’re at table with eleven others and one’s a NAZI then there are twelve NAZI’s at the table.

I think it applies here.

Was it an official act as president?

It would require that a significant portion of the population admit their parents mutilated them as infants.

For some reason, they refuse to admit they were mutilated without their consent.

Some of them have subsequently mutilated their own sons, and admitting that was mutilation is beyond their capacity.

Another bullshit passive-voice headline. Written implying the fault was not with the LAPD.

“LAPD officers destroy MRI machine in bungled pot raid”

Urgh, articles about tweets.

“So think of it: They get me to that position, and then their campaign says, ‘I’m the prosecutor, and he is the convicted felon.’ That’s their campaign,” Trump said. “I don’t think people are going to buy it.”

“We approve this message”

That’s it. Don’t reward a newssite for this shit.
