I think there's some truth to this but at the same time Labour had a horrible string of this sort of thing this time last year, as did National across 2020/2021. ACT is a rolling dumpster fire at all times. That speaks to some of the pressure not being unique to the Greens.
Of course there's a special sort of nastiness that comes out when its the Greens because they profess to hold principles, and of course when they slip, that's worse than just not trying at all. NZ hates a 'try hard' after all.
