Would you prefer that children starve?

intergenerational damage, what a joke, no maori alive today would exist if not for colonisation, as for land grabs they did a fair bit of that pre whitey

The arrival of colonising Europeans did far more damage to Maori than would ever have occurred if that invasion hadn't happened. Europeans brought diseases that the indigenous peoples of many lands had no protection against and then they are swindled out of their territories and slaughtered if they resisted. Sounds like a pretty sick joke if that's what you're referring to it as. Is it any wonder the Maoris hold resentment towards the crimes committed against them?
