A few of you will love this then ,,,,
I not sure I understand what she is trying to say but if I have it right maybe she is the one that needs education around the assembly and use of the Maori Battalion within the ANZACs

He's posted a whole long list of things around his standard rhetoric which is all about colonisation etc etc.
He's obviously just trying to stir things up and draw attention to himself by calling ANZACs shit.
Think it's a touch low myself
There were Maori soldiers that served with distinction in those wars. It is disrespectful to their memory as well

Oh no those are mentioned ... but only in how they were poorly treated by NZ after serving in the ANZACS.

So some foreigner abuses the memory of much better men than he'll ever be ...
Geez there are dumb fuck arseholes in the world. People who go out of their way just to get attention.
As an aside I was kicking around the idea inside my head as to whether commemoration of ANZAC day includes, or should include, the Maori land wars, remembering those on both sides given these were men (generally) who fought for their lives and people that have now become us.
Haven't thunk too deeply about the pros and cons but kinda think it could be a conduit for for continued conciliation. Or you could get some random Samoan national trying to undermine that.

@majorrage he is just a racist attention seeking cnut!
oh that's right, he's not white so can't be racist.

@canefan curious, what exactly about Apu's character would they need to change to make him more PC?
Do they need to make him less, er, Indian?,
There were complaints over the 'spray and walk away' ads a few years back, and the Asian guy that is in them said he found them funny, not offensive.

Yeah I'm so glad we live in a world where a feminist lesbian dwarf felt it was her obligation to be offended on behalf of the spray and walk away guy.

They still play that ad from time to time, so I suppose people keep getting triggered. Which amuses me

Was thinking about all the classic Simpson's characters and so many of them are hilarious stereotypes. Why is Apu considered worse than them ?

@mn5 are you telling me Fat Tony is a stereotype?
Why does old Groundskeeper Willy have red hair?

He's angry and anti social too. That triggers me.
