Wow, looks awesome man, if i had the money I would have flown over for that.

Whats the stroy about the naked girls?

At our flag burning the cops were smiling and thought it was great fun, I suppose they didn't know burning the NZ flag was illegal. They did ask us to clean up the mess though.

Good Work Comrades

Nz revolution is from New Zealand (the forgotten country right next to Australia)

I went to a BBQ and people said they saw the comrades in Australia going hard and some were wearing Che t shirts, they bought it up cos i was wearing mine.

peace peope and keep up the work

New Zealand has a great political thing which has been happening in the last fifteen years. Basically the story is that when the Europeans tried to settle the land the Maori warriors came out in their long boats and attacked them. What made the Maori's even more fearsome was the fact that they were cannibals. Tis made it especially hard for settlers such as Matthew Flinders, so they struck a bargain with the Maoris stating something along the lines of the whites leasing the land for two hundred years in return for things such as food gold and general ggods. In the last 15 years though the traditional Maori council have claimed that this lease has expired and are demanding ther land back. They already have more than half of their traditional fishing waters and their is a tax on the government and the airlines for using the Maori's airspace. Long live the NZ revolution, it is a quite one but it is happening. Peace to The Land Of The Long White Cloud from your comrades in the Land Down Under.

The sad thing about the NZ revolution you are refering to is that it's really not doing any good for the average Maori or anyone other than the right wing politicians who want a divided NZ. The rich suit wearing "leaders" of the tribes are taking all the money for themselves while the urban and non tribal Maori suffer from social troubles similar to the aboriginal people the world over.
Personally I think the treaty, the document you're talking about, is divisive and the rewarding of the land and cash is done in a purely european way that will ultimately fail all Maori and make the rest of NZ resentful of them.
I would do it a little differently and then we'd soon see who wanted to protect the NZ enviroment and the heritage it encompasses and who wanted to make fists full of cash.

MJM, you being knowledgable on the topic. could you hepl me out? ok i heard on the news that the maoris were the first aboriginal people to get their own email address. what i mean is:

www. .com.maori

is this true? and if so, is this the doing of the revolution?

[MJM]

Hhmm I'm not sure if this has happened or not. I do recall it being talked about last year or something. It's more like the .co.uk or .co.nz rather than the .com.au that you guys use.
So it would be .co.mi or something like that most likely.


Fuck I'm good, I found this for ya and can't be bothered editing my post :)

I myself have the blood of the NZ Maori in me, I still have a chuckle when I hear that my recent ancestors ate their enemies.

I have recieved no benefits from my heritage only racial slurs and the joy of seeing rich tribes people driving their new holdens which they love so much.

The average Maori has more in common with the workers of our country, so fuck Maori sovereignty and long live the marxist revolution...

[IHP]

Thanks for that. So do you know if this revolution has gained this? It would be good if our Aboriginal people could get this kind of recognition (minimal as it may be!).

It used to be quite big from what i can recall.

People used to wear Maori independence t shirts and fly flags and stuff, there were lots of bumber stickers, but it has been really quiet over the past few years.

Usually on Waitangi Day things used to get crazy. I remember that idiot Helen Clark crying because of something, crocodile tears is what one MP (Maori) called it.

From what I hear over here is that Aboriginal people is Aust have it real bad, fuckin white policies of our past governments.

i see future visions of proletarian prosperity...

[IHP]

Too right Aboriginal Australians get it rough. I have all the statistics here as I studied Aboriginal politics as a part of my politics degree. They are really bad.

The John Howard "ten Point Plan" is a racist document. It is one of those "it looks like im doing something, but im not" type of deals. It is really tragic.

I have had some light though. I have been learning about Charlie Perkins (Aussies might know him). He was one of the first Aboriginals to go to Uni. He has done some fantastic, totally unselfish things. He is man very worthy of respect.

Was he the guy who died last in last year or so?

Didnt he have a huge state funeral? (like the majority of Australians care)

That Howard is a loser. I would love to be in an official meeting with him and say how much of a dick he is. Much like Che used to do at the UN meetings.

"Hey you know Abos' steal your petrol so they can sniff it", one of the things I've heard over here in 'oh so clean fuckin green' NZ
