Dr Peter Winsley: THE MASK HAS SLIPPED - NOW WE CAN SEE TRIBALISM’S TRUE FACE.Under the previous Labour-led government, He Puapua became a blueprint for a shift from democratic government towards a bicultural system. It advocated massive transfers of Crown land to iwi, with Māori control over water and with a dominant voice in much resource management. It implied that mātauranga Māori would have equal status with international science. Te Tiriti provided a framework for education, and a new history curriculum was launched that is biased towards a narrow, ideological and selective account of our nation’s story. Te Tiriti-related requirements started being imposed for professions ranging from law to real estate. He Puapua, the Labour government’s “Māori caucus”, the TPM and Green parties, and academics in faculties such as Law and Māori studies formed what can be described as a tribalist movement. The tribalists see all New Zealanders as either indigenous people (tangata whenua) or people entitled to live in New Zealand through the grace of Te Tiriti (tangata tiriti). Indigenous people are those with bloodline whakapapa, whilst tangata tiriti lack it. Tribalists take no account of whakapapa of the mind rather than the blood. Nor do they reflect that history shows that no tribalistic or race-based society has ever succeeded in the modern world. So, what should New Zealand be doing differently?..... breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2024/06/dr-peter-winsley-mask-has-slipped-now.html
