Did I really just read "Pakeha is a slur" with my own eyeballs in the year of our lord 2024
far fucken out
#news from new zariland#For the internationals reading: I am Pakeha.#It's the Maaori term for a New Zealander of white/european descent#It's not a slur and the people spreading around that it means “white pig” are talking out their ass#As far as I know the most likely source for pakeha is pakehakeha which is an atua with pale skin and hair also known as a patupaiarehe#If I've spelt that wrong or if any of this is incorrect Kiwiblr will inevitably correct me (chur whaanau)#It's not a slur people are just freaks#A lot of kiwis of euro descent prefer Pakeha to NZ European me included
