In Parliament last Wednesday, Te Tai Tokerau MP Mariameno Kapa-Kingi said the government “will not waver in its mission to exterminate Māori”.
Tad hyperbolic, don’t you think?
In Parliament last Wednesday, Te Tai Tokerau MP Mariameno Kapa-Kingi said the government “will not waver in its mission to exterminate Māori”.
Tad hyperbolic, don’t you think?
The message was that the government is trying to exterminate Maori, did you not read the article?
If you think that’s the message TPM is trying to get across, then you are dumber than I gave you credit.
That is literally what they said.
You know full well what their intent is with this rhetoric. You know full well the point they are trying to raise. The fact that you insist on arguing about the messenger and tone of message shows you don’t want to engage with the problem being raised in good faith.
Do you think TPM is engaging in good faith with a statement like that?
I don’t care about the tone, I don’t think they are serious, I think they are using hyperbole to bring attention to the issue. They are a minor party, I doubt we would be talking about it otherwise.
I am capable of engaging in the discussion without focussing only on the tone of message and dismissing everything else.
Many people would consider that acting in bad faith.
They obviously don’t, because you’re literally the only one here trying to argue the messenger and not the message.
You’re a strange fellow.
