This business of calling everyone a ‘racist’ who doesn’t agree with a certain interpretation of ‘The Treaty’ is just childish name-calling. The only reason why Leftists and Activists are constantly using terms such as racist, race baiting, and dog whistle is because they want to invalidate and shut down opposition to ‘co-governance’.
People opposing co-governance do not wish to pursue a racist agenda, they only wish to preserve our democracy & ensure equality for everyone in NZ. To that end, they do not want the elected government involved in ‘co-governance’ with unelected tribal supremo’s.
We don’t even know if the agenda being advanced by stealth by Labour is supported by the majority of Maori: effectively it is a small cabal of Maori intellectual and political elites who are advancing the co-governance plan in conjunction with a Labour outfit who will pay any price to secure enduring support from Maori.
