00:00:00
I believe that in time the treaty
00:00:02
principles bill or something very much
00:00:03
like it will succeed.
00:00:05
>> The haka tip party moldi hana rips up
00:00:07
the um treaties principal bill and then
00:00:09
they perform a haka in front of you.
00:00:11
What what's that like from your
00:00:12
perspective? It's saddening because I
00:00:15
look at the society we live in and after
00:00:18
about 300,000 years of humans running
00:00:20
around bopping each other over the head,
00:00:22
keeping each other as slaves, practicing
00:00:24
cannibalism, and just generally being
00:00:26
savages, we have arrived at a time in
00:00:28
our history where to be respected, you
00:00:31
have to make your arguments using ideas
00:00:33
and logic and facts. And people have the
00:00:36
ability to choose which ones they
00:00:38
believe and how they think. Now all of a
00:00:41
sudden we say, "Okay, if you don't like
00:00:43
something, then you just get up and and
00:00:45
dance around and yell and poke your
00:00:46
tongue out and in their case um make
00:00:49
shooting gestures uh of a gun that
00:00:52
people if you don't like their ideas,
00:00:53
instead of debating them with better
00:00:55
ideas, maybe you should kill them."
00:00:57
Well, that makes me sad.
