The Haka in parliament is one of the coolest fucking protests to something like this that I have ever seen. You can see how proud the elder is next to the woman who starts it.

I know it’s not the type of political protest most of our right leaning posters here enjoy, nobody cosplayed in a bison hat, no chants of hang mike pence, no smearing feces on the wall. Overall, it’s still pretty cool though.

Granted of course you're a Canadian nuthugger like your main account.

Can any Kiwi's chime in? I am instinctively against a bunch of retards dancing in parliament but I don't have an informed opinion about it. The Haka has always been gay as fuck, by the way. All the people who ever liked that are the same drones that rave about how great bacon is, or whatever the current meme is.

They literally do it for everything lmao.

I'm going to the grocery store, better do a haka first

Why are you so butthurt about this? Are you Maori now too? Lmao

Nah, you're literally trying to laugh at a serious dance while parading a clown doing a completely non-serious dance as your AV

There's no way you can't see the irony - have a chuckle at yourself once in a while!

I've lived in NZ a few times and have Kiwi citizenship, as well as Pommie, and Aussie. A large part of my childhood was in NZ.

I wish people would understand, the Maori are NOT indigenous to NZ! I'm sure most people think they are, because that is how they are presented to the world. I also wouldn't be surprized if lots of Maori children are brought up these days being told they are indigenous.
Yes, the Poms colonized NZ. However, much earlier, the Maori arrived from Polynesia and colonised the country, and 'dealt' with the people who were already living there.
The Maori were more advanced and they loved war, and also cannibalism. In today's woke religious world, these things are not really being taught anymore.

The article in the link mentions the, "British colonizers." But what about the Maori colonizers? In the religion of the woke, tanned, brown, or black people from any land cannot be criticized

I agree with what is said by this politican:
“My Treaty Principles Bill says that I, like everybody else, whether their ancestors came here 1,000 years ago, like some of mine did, or just got off the plane at Auckland International Airport this morning to begin their journey as New Zealanders, have the same basic rights and dignity,” he told the BBC.

“Your starting point is to take a human being and ask, what's your ancestry? What kind of human are you?” adds Seymour who has Māori ancestry himself. “That used to be called prejudice. It used to be called bigotry. It used to be called profiling and discrimination. Now you're trying to make a virtue of it. I think that's a big mistake.”

Triple citizenship? Impressive. I didn't think that's usually allowed by most countries but there might be a Commonwealth loophole?

As for the question of what an indigenous person actually is... I think it's a thorny issue. Human history is really a series of conquests by more or less all peoples in existence today. Arabs are not the original inhabitants of Palestine/Egypt/the Levant, etc but they have roots there that go back 1000-1500 years. At what point after conquest does the replacement nation become indigenous? On a personal note, I'm a 10th generation white Canadian and I'd like to think of myself as having deep enough roots here to be considered as such, but I also recognize that it's probably not the case.

In the case of the Maoris, they claim to be the original inhabitants of NZ, coming there between 1250 and 1300 AD. There are others claims that the Moriori were the original inhabitants and were supplanted. Either way, the Maori have some deep roots there, it's just a question of whether at this point of the game the majority of NZ is ready for a new constitution and how that will end up affecting the Maoris if approved.
