[QUOTE="Fa'atau82, post: 295235"] I don't think it's insulting or racist, rather it's condescending and extremely patronising. Maori's are not an immigrant ethnic group, they are a cultural group original to New Zealand, or Aotearoa.. therefore it cannot be racist in that sense, but it is singling out a certain cultural group when it's totally unneccessary. A bit of an own-goal really. [/QUOTE]
