      Winston is a mercenary. Tariana with all due respect, was never able to unite Maori like Waititi has. You can insult him all you like, but he is RIGHT. Maori have suffered injustice after injustice, from being forced to swear allegiance to the crown or be killed, to suffering Raupatu, mass land confiscation following the Land wars, to the Native township act and perpetual leasing, to refusal of access to our OWN land. We have suffered injustice and apartheid for 180 years.

Now we see our own people in gang wars ending lives and peddling meth in our communities. Rawiri will never take our people faward in today's society especially in the political arena, only way he knows is protest and even his wifes rant on social media shows she's even sick of lighting fires here and there because it's still getting nowhere but big gatherings yet no policy changes in government.

    You want to be a role model for young Maori of today, a force of good. Consider one day when you are no longer a MP, you have to get a job(everybody does). A face tattoo(though full of mana within Maoridom) and a cowboy hat persona. In the ocean of all kinds of employers (they drive the economy, generate money), who will just see you as a person, you cannot tick that they are racist if they won't give any person like that a job, not even to me. A longer term idea to mull over.

    OK I just want to have a say on this. He has just said "He's just catering to a certain demographic that don't want to see Maori achieving anything, and that we are all assimilated, and we are all kiwi's, when we are not". He also mentions about how he wants to decolonize the nation and they should be in the middle of all the decision making when it comes to policies. Also he claims that the political system is racist and is built to make sure Maori are being oppressed. He is also wearing a cowboy hat. . . which is the result of colonization and in a way is representing the American expansion into the west of northern America which also resulted in the eradication on the Native Americans nearly into extinction.
    I'm sorry but everything he is saying is extremely racist towards Pakeha, So how does fighting racism with more racism help anything exactly? Because if a large number of Maori are younger generation Maori, does this not just create a new generation of Maori that hate Pakeha and would gladly see us removed from the equation? If your issue is with the system and the government I think you'll find that most Pakeha also agree with a lot of what he is saying, but don't bring the people into it, a lot of us don't think the way that we are being stereotyped by Rawiri, maybe 50 years ago yeah sure but that's not the case these days.

    • @bens4241
      @bens4241 Před 6 měsíci

      What did he say that was racist towards pākehā ?
      Racism is a form of prejudice that assumes that the members of racial categories have distinctive characteristics and that these differences result in some racial groups being inferior to others. Racism generally includes negative emotional reactions to members of the group, acceptance of negative stereotypes, and racial discrimination against individuals; in some cases it leads to violence.
      Discrimination refers to the differential treatment of the members of different ethnic, religious, national, or other groups. Discrimination is usually the behavioral manifestation of prejudice and therefore involves negative, hostile, and injurious treatment of members of rejected groups.

      Because he in generalizing Pakeha by saying things like "He's just catering to a certain demographic that don't want to see Maori achieving anything, and that we are all assimilated, and we are all kiwi's, when we are not". He's saying this as if ALL Pakeha think this way, then he goes on to talk about WW2 as being "The white mans war we didn't want anything to do with". I'm sorry but WW2 was not a white mans war, it was everyone's war, and I'll tell you right now, If Japan had made their way here because we didn't fight, there wouldn't be any Maori or Pakeha here. It's just his generalization of things that white people do, that's being racist, and guess what? Yes you can be racist towards white people which is exactly what this is. If you replaced what he says about Pakeha with Maori, you'd be getting screamed at for being racist 100%. @@bens4241

    • @bens4241
      @bens4241 Před 6 měsíci

      I'll answer your points in order, 1st he doesn't refer to Pakeha as being the demographic that don't want to see māori achieving anything, that would be referring to NZF supporters rather than all pakeha. @@ElusivGaming WW1 is the war that is generally referred too as the white mans war and Māori Opposition to this, in particular through followers of Rua Kenana, resulted in raids being carried out at Maungapohatu. generally racism is also defined through power and the structures that hold those power oppressing those who do not control those structures. This typically results in racism being unable to occur towards white people at least within countries where a white majority holds the power(in particular in settler colonial states) though prejudice can occur between any group or individual.

    1. SEO score is very low
    2. No title- description- tags are SEO friendly
    3. Social media platforms are not shared and many problems with your CZcams channel urgently need SEO for CZcams channel.

    Eager to hear more from Rāwiri, whose insights into poverty and living costs are genuinely enlightening! It's a pity that the Maori Party’s vital voices are often muted in mainstream media.
    Optimistically looking toward Wini, his consistent support for valuable Māori kaupapa is noteworthy, despite his strategic plays to red-necks and pronounced support for Tai Tokerau in the past.
