UNWANTED 24/7 COMPULSORY IMPOSITION OF EVERYTHING MAORI

I don’t believe that is the situation at all - I believe that a majority of NZ citizens have little interest in te ao Maori - certainly in my case, I have had so much Maori wonderfulness rammed down my throat and been force fed Maori language and customs for the last 5 years that the mere sight of the word Maori, or the sound of it on radio or TV causes me to immediately mutter “OMG, more Maorification” and turn the page or change the station or channel !
The unwanted 24/7 compulsory imposition of everything Maori on me and on all non-Maori without any consultation or feedback has had only one major effect and that is to cause me to be heartily sick of everything Maori and to deliberately avoid the constant unwanted imposition of everything Maori being shoved down my throat by a know-all, woke Socialist Government, Government bureaucracies, woke academics, media, woke companies, city councils, entertainment providers, schools and even sports bodies so much so that that I immediately change the subject as soon as more Maori everything is mentioned in my presence ! I could quite happily live the rest of my life without ever hearing the word “Maori” again !
I now know what it is like to live in a closed hermit kingdom such as Communist China or Russia and to be force fed lies and propaganda 24 hours a day- and I don’t like it one little bit
