i feel the same way about Maori since Labours persistent agenda of elevating Maori above other races, separatism ( apartheid ) will never work in N.Z. but, Labour obviously thinks it will since they want separate governance, separate hospitals, separate policing, etc. etc. the Labour party are barking mad, if re-elected there could be civil unrest to the point of civil war.
A perfect and very apt comment. What you've said is what the majority of us feel. What really did it for me with Labour's insidious policies, is when they established a separate Maori health authority costing us poor sods an eye watering $750M. Jesus Christ, that's downright intolerable! Ever since 1969, I've always voted Labour. Never again. This time I gave both ☑️☑️to New Zealand First.
@@rayh.7757 i agree, what really gets up my nose is the treaty, three simple paragraphs has turned into a fictionalised grabfest for greedy bastards at the top of the tree, the average Maori hasn't seen a red cent of taxpayers so called " reparation " yet, the dosy buggers still keep yapping on that we owe them a living, in reality the average Maori should be asking the big questions to the elite maori's driving flash cars and living in style because they are the greedy sods who have their money.
Yeah right. Too many keyboards and not enough warriors for that to ever happen here!
Stop lying to yourself, you've always felt that way mate hahaha oh on!!!!! white pubs and black pubs are coming.. watch out!!! 😂😂😂
@@rayh.7757not sure what you are worried about. That is only a couple of weeks worth of the old persons benefit.
Don't feel bad for not liking shitty music.
spot on
Indian music does my head in!
People are more comfortable with what’s familiar to them
& there is nothing wrong with that.
Fear of the unknown
@@MartinCraig-zt2sv….No, an organic & innate understanding that the foreign has no allegiance or loyalty to that which they love is what it is. That dusty old term "Fear of the unknown" is wheeled out like some magical artifact that reveals some deep inner truth, when the reality is the polar opposite, people correctly notice there will be no loyalty or allegiance given to that whoch they love.
I'm not a racist but a race realist!
Hate is extremely low frequency✨️
"Seek Higher"🙋♂️💛
Well, it all depends upon HOW you hate! People have been socially engineered to view hate as categorically wrong...ITS NOT! I use this little acronym to illustrate my point.

Racism doesn’t require hate at all, that’s something you’ve been conditioned to attach to the word. I’m very comfortably racist and if I do experience a hateful response, it’s almost invariably to a direct attack against my people, for being themselves, in nations they’ve hewn for themselves. Get over the conditioning, find an old dictionary, look up the true definition of the word, discover how inert it really is and that the simple act of accepting reality requires not a jot of hate. The hate part is a contemporary addition, made to cater for the ideolgical demands of the politically tyrannical.
Good stuff Sean. In a time when we're constantly asked to examine our whiteness, it's hard not to see and judge others by their race sometimes
Went to my favourite coffee shop the other day, that has recently changed hands, and the doof doof music? that was playing at high volume just made me turn around and walk out
Yes especially when its that gangster rap with all its profanities and references to gang rape. But hey im sailing close to the breeze there.
No Sean, most Uber drivers in NZ are of South Asian descent (Indian, Srilankan etc.).
The fact that you don’t know such common fact shows how ignorant you are to what’s out there.
Having said that, yes some music are not of our taste and neither do I like “dum dum dum” kind of song, so you are entitled to your opinion :).
"what happens to a man is less significant than what happens within him" said an old Indian fellow once.👍
I admire your honesty. Respect.
It can be in all of us Sean. It's called sin, and we deserve to die for it, but Jesus Christ died for it in our stead
I'm not racist either, in fact one of my very closest friends says that he knows a man who actually knows an Arab.
Sean, you didn’t tell us you are now working for Stuff…😂
Potential migrants to this country must have to speak ENGLISH BEFORE even applying.
That's just for starters. Also, Uber driver is not a critical skills shortage.
Show me someone who says their not racist' l'll show you a Bloody liar!!
Taxi drivers are from India 🇮🇳 😂 does that make me racist 🤔
Someone made a good comment here which I agree with…
Sean, you have to trust your gut feeling/instinct…
If you are in a situation where YOU don’t feel safe and could be potentially threatening or dangerous to you whatever that is. Don’t let guilt compromise your safety and don’t feel guilted into a scenario just to be ‘kind’.
Thoughts are not illegal.
Sometimes you just sense a vibe or energy (in a non religious sense) and you just gotta do what’s best for you.
That doesn’t make you a racist in my opinion.
Doesn’t matter if he is a racist, everyone’s allowed to be if they want. The unceasing conditioning we’ve all been under to flagellate ourselves for the perceived crime of recognising racial differences is actually a crime against us and a form of abuse. Race is real, it generates the culture and behaviours of the respective racial groups and that’s just a stark & observable reality. If someone’s not a racist by now, with all the desperately unhealthy dysfunction that multiculturalism has demonstrably inflicted on the world via neurotic desires to be tolerant, they’re essentially a trained circus animal.
@@biggest23 yes hence “thoughts are not illegal…” you’ve disregarded the message of the comment to one up. Message: Trust your gut.
@@bigthinker281 …I’m actually trying to steelman your comment, not combat it. The conditioning to make us rear back in horror at the thought of racism, is a crime against us and attempts to depower/emasculate us, hence my opening comment declaring that it’s just fine & dandy to engage in it. Racism is an entirely organic function and the original and entirely inert definition of the word does not not include hate, malice, or superiority as prerequisite for its existence, meaning, it doesn’t matter if someone’s a comfortable & hate-free racist, except to those who’ve been unable to overcome the conditioning they’ve suffered, or to those who benefit from the label’s negative impact upon those they cast it against.
Don't overthink it Sean. Be true to who you are. No one asked to be born in a certain country or with a certain colour but be real not a racist...
It's weird that people are more worried about being called a racist than being a dead person who ignored their instincts.
Islam is a religion, not a race.
Judaism is a religion not a race. Out of Judaism came Islam and Christianity
who cares to be honest.
Our job is to accept what is and take it as it comes yeah?
@@Straitjacket-Fits….You need to pass a DNA test to emigrate to israel, to ensure you’re dewish. They must be checking for that religion gene huh?
@@Straitjacket-Fits Our job is to accept what is, and then make judgements about what we do and don't like.
Everybody is racist. Its in our genes. Those who claim they are not are liars
Cant blame you for feeling traumatised when you spent yesterday being immersed in bad news. Doesnt mean that you hated the guy for his race but his choice of music prevented you from having a rest from being reminded
It's ok to be critical
Keep that Rangie going Sean, the oldies are the goodies, and you never know when you might need its off-road abilities ;)
Listen to your gut!
Next time ask politely for him to turn it off
if he refuses or gets lippy, get out. N.B. Unprofessional of him in the first place !
as a fare paying taxi passenger you are completely entitled to ask the driver to turn off music which you have no wish to hear. especially if it's too loud and annoying and you want a peaceful ride to your destination
Or you can be passive aggressive say nothing and whinge about it later. Which option you choose speaks volumes about you
It’s the equivalent of hotel management blasting their music through to your hotel room.
Some drivers could do with some lessons on decorum, that’s for sure.
Wow Sean.. I think you must have been watching too much of the mainstream media. I think your statement really fuels the fire of this conflict.
Wellington has buses every 5 minutes going alll over tge show empty , trains and ubers. The rest of nz has cars, no trains, no ubers , no ferrys and a bus going 3 kms up the road .
Poor Sean ,I can only imagine what the parts bill for a Range Rover , then the labour on top will come to .🥺😭
What Hamas did was reprehensible , but Israel will take 100 or more lives for every Israeli and Sean seems fine with that !
Then how would you exoect Israel to respond?
Funny how the vertue signalers would try to make mince meat of you for that Shaun.. but bless you for putting your heart on your sleeve and sharing a pretty normal human dilemma that lots of us face and because of our honest hearts usually work it through to a reasonable conclusion.
DONT FEEL SO BAD SEAN . The number of times r i've time ive been on a work site and listened to blarring rubbish music and said turn that crap down or off.
Well said Sean
Sean, what happened to the “Great Communicator”?
You might have asked the driver to turn off the music ( you were his fare) and engaged him in conversation.
You might have learned something, he might have learned something.
He might not have wanted to talk but there was an opportunity.
In my experience most Cabbies love a chat.
Obviously rather be passive aggressive and whinge behind the cabbies back. The kiwi way
@@MartinCraig-zt2sv…I’m a Kiwi, phuqq you Martin. That’s more the Kiwi way that I grew up in dickhead. Perhaps you’re new here.
I think you've just proved my point@@biggest23
Expressions of culture are intrinsically tied to race & the inherent responses to stimuli that are tied to the respective race that has experienced that stimuli, whether the conditioning we have all suffered under says otherwise. Culture is invariably downstream of race, so being uncomfortable with that knowledge and berating yourself with the label "racist" because you "noticed" that stark reality, is unhealthy for you in the moment and ultimately desperately unhealthy for the nation/civilisation you’re the heir & steward to.
Racism is a label that’s applied in the hopes of anaesthetising a totally natural, organic & healthy response, purely for the benefit of those who would seek to have the works and products that you’re/we’re the heirs & stewards to, taken for themselves.
I could not give two schidtts about that label of "racist" being applied to myself, either by myself, or by others, as I have many decades of international work & travel under my belt and know full well of the dysfunction that arrives with the saccharine displays of heavily socially engineered tolerance. I don’t need to strive to develop a tolerance for anything that’s healthy for me, because it’s inherently healthy and that’s the starkest reality of all, that working to develop tolerance, means you’re dealing with something that is not healthy for you.
Accepting an innate & organic intolerance as something that is a guide marker, will keep you and that legacy which you are tasked with looking after, in fine condition for the heirs that come after you. Racism as a negative is a con cooked up by those that would seek to have you disarmed, as they seek that which you are the heir to.
History is complicated.. We can only look back on it now and learn.. Disagreeing with outcomes and consequences, and how to fix things is different from calling for the annihilation of a people group...
Unfortunately the other side is stuck in the old testament of first century BC@secondchance6603
Maori party, asian group in parliament, who are the racists.??????????????????????????????????
you and sean lol
Sean Plunket would be best, in my Opinion, that he Joins the RNZ Team of "CAUCUS" and be part of a True Debate of what ever Sean Plunket is ABOUT...?
RNZ got rid of Sean years ago. Do you think they want him back?
He's not struggling not to be racist, there's some music we like and some we don't.........so it goes. Not all people are tarred with the same brush eg. because Biden and the Democrats are woke idiots doesn't make all Americans woke idiots does it, we're not all birds of a feather. That was really metaphorical wasn't it.
I think you had the right to aks for the music to be turned down with out that being a problem.
Oh he's a racist it's his bread and butter .
Hames is fighting a war
I'm not racist but!.....
Disliking music is not racist
I.just ask the driver to turn the music off
You could have spoken with him & learnt something about him?
Kiwis can be very passive aggressive most of the time
Arab music is horrid low vibrational sounds would drive me nuts
Is that not a strong ethnic bias
Have you even through about what It's like for the Palestinian people
confined to an open air prison in Gaza
being bombed with nowhere to run or hide
Clueless,, go to Gaza you'd be more usefull there..
I feel that way about hip hop / rap music, you really need to educate yourself on the origins of hamas, bit like those weapons of war that never got found and became a massive insider joke!
Lazy journalism Sean...Israel has been 100x worse with their brutality. Wake up!! The other thing is most of these uber guys are great and appreciative. Sort ya shit out
Dont be too hard on yourself Sean. A momentary thought is not a sin, its what you do with that thought that counts. You thought your thought, then searched your soul, and corrected yourself. All good.. Theres a powerful video on Praeger U where various Arab IDF soldiers give their testimony, and speak of their commitment to the nation of Israel. I would recommend it to anyone that feels the insidious spirit of racism touching their soul. This isnt a race issue. This is radical Islam vs everyone else...
VS everyone else?? 😂😂😂 This guy needs help... this non jew non Muslim named peter giving false information (EVERYONE) is his opinion from his country at the bottom of the earth.. Good work. 🤣🤣🤣 p.s peter believes Islam is coming for New Zealand (EVERYONE).. NZers Wow..
@@UPTHEWAHSDAY1 I note with interest that you capitalise the M in Muslim but not the J in Jew... Anti Semitic much??? Have you studied the Quran or Hadiths? I have. Yup, VS everyone else. Shalom aleichem. Baruch haba b'shem Adonai.
@@peterhenderson7704 I have travelled into the hollyland on serveral occasions. unlike others that have studied and are over opinionated 🤣🤣 it's a shame on all NZers to have examples like peter feeding disinformation.. peter doubled down confirming lslam is coming for WAR with New Zealand (EVERYONE) Oh yeah Peter also noted a spelling mistake 👍
@@peterhenderson7704 Breaking news for New Zealand!!! Peter says Islamic war is on its way to the bottom of the earth! Coming to a town near you EVERYONE ELSE.. Peter's a ticking time bomb 🤣🤣🤣
@@peterhenderson7704 I note with interest that peter studied the Qur'an a round of applause for Peter Henderson..
Suggestion: does racism flow from the toxic interplay between psychopathy and narcissism? I haven’t seen the relevant research, but are these two traits becoming more common in the general population? If so, then society is becoming more toxic and that goes beyond just racism.
You cannot do anything about your race,it is simply the geneticic cofluence which occurud when you were conceived, Culture and/or religion, however are entirely voluntary behaviours, and as such being annoyed/repulsed etc by cultural acts of others cannot be seen as racist.
So. You don't like musuc
Isreal
welcome to the world ! you are now an adult , and your youthfull ideology has been depleted ,
Are you not showing your support isrewal
We all fell that way but it dose pass but when u see what Hamas is doing it just puts u back into that seat
Somewhere in his priviledge brain.
Sound like misleading propaganda get into Sean head .
1) any music is cultural expression
2) Culture is visualization of values.
3) It is common matter that values of individuals could be opposite - so confrontational : Oil and water do not mix.
4) if some individual respect something as wrong, he do not need to practice it, and is free to reject it, because he respect it as evil .
5) this individual reject it for himself and have no authority over other individual.
and that is how freedom work.
That’s why he moved hear. To get away from all the sh-t in his own country.
That old chestnut. If a cancer cell that was flowing through a blood vessel could talk, it’d tell you it was just trying to escape the tumour.
That why we all moved here mate
hehe
All we need is that the whole Population are NEW ZEALANDERS FOR Forty hours a week.........
and if you want to be Scot and play the bag pipes then do it after your forty hours a week....if you want to be Irish , Indian what ever do it in your own time,,,,and don't ask me to be one of you...or pay for it.........That way every body is a New Zealander First to give us the country we want....we will be united under the one Goal......not divided .like Labour have made us...giving hand outs based on RACE .........
At least you can observe yourself
