DID YOU WATCH TV ONE NEWS TONIGHT? - Denis Hall
So as it is - I’m not even remotely interested in learning Maori - never have been and never will be - and apparently that means I really am a racist. Given the numbers of Maori who say they cannot conduct an everyday conversation in Maori - most people of the Maori persuasion cannot speak Maori either - so apparently, I’m in good company - or maybe they are racists like me.
But clearly - if tonight’s TV One News and Propaganda Vomitorium is anything to go by - (Propaganda with a capital ‘P’) - me not having any interest in learning Maori - makes me a sure fire racist all day long - and I should have a slogan tattooed on my forehead and be put in a camp with no way of changing my underwear - and be brainwashed and re-educated.
KLANGGG! SHUT THE GATE ON THAT RACIST PIG!
But you know - all you Labor supporters - it’s difficult to teach an old dog like me new tricks - because my head is so filled up with all the old tricks fighting to get out and see the light of day.
Well - this is what I think about all that. If you agree with me - feel free to cut and paste this to anywhere - while freedom of speech is by a wafer slim margin - still permitted here in New Zealand. In fact - print it on the Prime Minister’s office printer if you like and leave it on her desk.
How’s your imagination? If it’s functioning - try this.
Imagine if the Maori Language was the mother tongue of all New Zealanders - including all Maori - and all the Europeans who have been here for generations speak it - instead of the sad reality that most Maori actually learn ENGLISH at their mother’s knee - and don’t even learn Maori as a second language.
That makes English their mother tongue as well - and with it they can conduct conversation in most of the nations of the world - and they can indulge themselves in the world’s greatest gatherings of literature and knowlege.
Speaking in Maori - almost anywhere - not so much really - but let’s ignore that because it’s politically incorrect.
But please - try to imagine if it were the other way around. All the newspapers and legal documents and school books would be written in Maori. Lectures in Aotearoan Universities would all be in Maori. Maori speakers would teach English to Asian students for money - and all our Asian shop keepers would speak Maori with a difficult accent.
Your doctor would speak Maori - and he would know Maori medicalese. Menus in restaurants would all be in Maori - and beggars would have signs written on the side of a cardboard box in Maori saying how hard up they are. Road signs would all be in Maori - as would all brochures for new cars - and all movies shown in New Zealand would either be in Maori or have Maori subtitles - and maybe all the Beatles songs would have been translated into Maori - and Freddy Mercury would do a rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody in Maori - with pois.
Have you got that imagination working yet?.....
