5 million already? I know it's not a conscious decision, but I feel like it's fitting to still have the Queen here. Doesn't feel like any other monarchs will ever have any "power" or "majesty", at least once King Charles passes.

Bump. I feel that. I remember browsing the archives to find an old NZ thread on here.

I am not a fan of the way Seymour did things. Though I can't say I am really much of a fan of him at all to begin with. It reminds me of the USSR's gambit to join NATO. I agree with Luxon on this one being too simplistic for something that is pretty complicated. If Seymour wants to wipe the slate clean and (in good faith, honesty, with a well-planned out plan) introduce something that provides satisfactory equity in wording that does well with equality, he can do try and do that. But that is separate from mucking about with the treaty isn't the way to do it.

Personally, I don't really care too much about the haka thing. Mostly just the stupid responses I see made by people who don't know what they're talking about. Spreading the moriori myth. Fucking horrendous.
Not sure if I would put the Haka next to the ghost chip ad. One is tradition (even if you don't like it) and the other is nostalgic pop-culture. Not the same.
> just diet australia with no history
We have a history, just that people don't pay too much attention to it because it ultimately wasn't that influential outside of small things in New Zealand. I've been wanting to get into more NZ history. Slowly, very, very slowly. There is interesting things here but the sources are scarce and there is little attention paid towards them in the first place. Bit of a shame, really.
> luv me a good fejoa
Yeah.
I feel like this sort of "chill, humble guy in the room" persona we want to keep up might be why we don't really like loud performative actions.
