Oh, you poor thing.

Even Hipkins acknowledges they had some pretty crummy ideas leading up to the election, why do you think they've dropped no GST on fresh fruit as a policy?

And how is singling out one ethnic group for causing violence in the world not racist?

They dropped the policy because the businesses pushed back against it. Doesn't mean it wasn't a good policy.

She didn't do that though. Ironically this is a perfect illustration of the phrase "white fragility". Your fragile ego broke when your identity was criticised. Identity politics in action right here.
