The company server wouldn't allow me to visit this site.....and now in Singapore, unable to log in! I've been out of NZ for a long time and just dreading my return next week as all the fake BS will return in waves. Te lingo is FAKE. It has stolen letters from the English alphabet. Cultural appropriation 100%. We are talking about a stone age, barbaric, violent cannibal race that was so primitive, the basic wheel was never thought of. Slavery, murder, cannibalism and a host of other unmentioned cultural traits are now glossed over or banned under hate speech rules. People are spending longer on hospital waiting lists because of this moron's crusade to keep a dying fake useless language alive. If anything, she should be charged for squandering NZ taxpayer's hard earned money causing pain and suffering to people waiting for medical attention. But in 3rd world NZ, stupidity, ignorance, blatantly lying about our history are not only tolerated, but rewarded, as evidenced in this story.
