DAVID SEYMOUR on the VALUES we should have as KIWI's..
David Seymour in this interview says “Well first of all I think in terms of values for the country we need to start being a lot clearer about first of all there is an objective reality and there is universal humanity there's not different world views. There's one world and we're all part of it and we're all humans and we're all equally part of it.”
I don’t think there is much objective reality. Yes, physical objects such as rocks, trees, and buildings exist independently of any individual's perception of them. But I might think that a tree is beautiful or a nuisance and should be removed. Some scientific facts are objective, and although historical events such as wars occurred history can and is rewritten. My perception of a war comes from someone else’s interpretation.
If I was a disabled Maori woman my world view would be very different from David Seymour’s. My world view is that if ACT is elected it will not be good for NZ. David Seymour’s would that it will be great for NZ. It will be good for some people, but not good for all New Zealanders.
I agree we are all humans, but not that we are all equally part of one world. Someone living in their car has a different world view to a person living in a $3m house in a gated community.
