EVIL

EVIL

There is an old saying that goes as follows;

“All that is needed for Evil to prosper is for good people to do nothing”

When you take the time to seriously look at the current political situation in New Zealand there is nothing to see other than evil prospering.

Our government has over the past few terms taken us from what was a well ordered and regulated nation to one where the evil of Apartheid has become not only present but actually supported by many in government.

The people of NZ voted for change at the last election, but that action of voting for change will not on its own achieve any change in the political landscape without the voters continuing to monitor the actions of the new government and either support them or demand more change.

We see many so-called leaders/elites of the Maori population promoting a co-governance model for NZ based on an erroneous interpretation of the Treaty of Waitangi which is nothing more than Apartheid under another title.

The so-called leaders promoting this apartheid system of government are nothing more than modern day terrorists in my opinion. They are not leaders in my opinion just riders on what has become an endless Treaty gravy train. They have their snouts buried so deep in the public trough that they have become nothing more than leeches on our society.

The Maori political party are probably the most vocal of those pushing these claims and yet at the last election they could only gain 2.8% of the total vote even with the Maori voting population being approximately 13% of the total voting population. Their radical actions and claims show no respect for the tikanga and mana of others.

They talk a lot about the Treaty and partnership and yet they spend almost all their time attacking the Crown, Parliament, and anyone with a different view to them. They don’t seem to believe in responsibility or even democracy.

That sums them up – they are only about themselves. This is further highlighted by their continued demand for their idea of tikanga to be adhered to. They are obsessed with their version of Maori tikanga being respected yet they show no respect whatsoever to the tikanga of others – especially not that of Parliament.

It’s time the NZ public stood up and made known their increasing frustrations at being called racist for expecting fairness. They’re tired of their taxes funding cultural appeasement schemes. They’re furious that identity politics is being welded into law while the roads crumble, the schools rot and the hospitals buckle.

It is no coincidence that those most aggressively pushing these policies are a tightly clustered elite – activists, lawyers, academics and bureaucrats – who have built entire careers off the grievance industry. They keep repeating the narrative that Maori are endlessly suffering from the effects of colonisation and in desperate need of special political privilege.

The truth! They only want to see NZ become a nation divided on the basis of race, with them in control and milking the system for all they can get.

Against a backdrop of this high-profile push for co-governance, it is easy to overlook the positive statistics.

For example, 64 percent of Maori are employed as compared to the employment rate for all New Zealanders, of 68.4%. In excess of 400,000 Maori have jobs, provide products and services and pay tax and 97 percent of Maori aged 15 or older are not in prison or serving a community sentence or order. Over 99 percent of Maori are not gang members.

Yes there is a small number of the Maori population which create a huge number of problems by way of their personal choices in relation to their way of living and their attitude to the law of the land, and this affects the Maori population in general by influencing public opinion.

But it must be stated that the fact that although this small number are very much over represented in the criminal statistics and in the prison populations, this is not as a result of racism or colonisation but a direct result of their own poor lifestyle choices.

When we study the claims of institutionalised racism within New Zealand, we find that in most cases the answer lies with the personal choices of those involved and the effects resulting from those personal choices.

This is backed up by the statistics that show that the vast majority of Maori are employed in jobs that provide products and services, pay tax, are not in prison or serving a community sentence or order, and are not gang members.

New Zealand must decide: are we going to remain a democratic nation of citizens or return to the tribal rule that existed prior to the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi.

We have operated under a system of democracy which has been based on the principle that all persons are equal in the eyes of the law and entitled to equality in the political and governmental processes but now we have this section of the population which is trying desperately to divide the country based on ethnicity.

If we are to have unity/equality it won’t be through Co-Governance. Co-governance doesn’t unite us—it divides, inflames, and festers. We don’t need more committees and cultural vetoes; all we need is one law for all.

The longer we allow this push for division based on race to continue by failing to take action, the more we erode the glue that holds us together. Real progress doesn’t come from having race-based privileges, but from the support of all, regardless of background or ethnicity.

Maori, along with the approximately 200 other ethnic groups within NZ society, should have an equal right to representation but this right in no way should ever give them a greater level of representation than any other ethnic group. To do so would be akin to implementing a system of apartheid, a system of government that New Zealander’s have fought against for many years.

By discriminating against people on the basis of race, gender and sexuality, it dangerously undermines New Zealanders’ right to equality before the law.

But there can be no mature discussion about our future as a country until everybody accepts that the Treaty provided for the government to have final authority, with all citizens - no matter their ancestry - having equal rights.

We must stop being afraid to say it. This is not just wrong. It is corrosive. A separatist political model based on racial ancestry belongs in 19th-century South Africa, not 21st-century New Zealand.

Martin Luther King made the famous statement:-

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character.”

He made this statement during a speech he gave in 1963 and it has reverberated around the world since then, yet here we are sixty some years later in NZ still promoting the total opposite to his iconic statement “Apartheid”.

In my opinion we have arrived at this point in our history due to the pressures of greed; greed for money and greed for power (so as to allow more accumulation of money).

If we are going to defeat this movement towards an Apartheid nation; “We the people need to take action to prevent this Evil from prospering.”
