For context, this guy leads a party that is part of a coalition in government at the moment. However, they only got 6% of the vote. He/they (the guy/the party but I find it amusing given the context that I could have been referring to his pronouns) is certainly not representative of the country as a whole.

More concerning is that the other parties in the coalition are also trying their best to mimic Trump.

When all your policies fail the only thing left to engage your voters is the culture war.

Peters has made a career out of courting the dumbest 5-10% of kiwis for at least the last 30 years. "Woke" is just his latest ill-defined hobby-horse to get his name in the paper.

He calls to end "DEI" while his party says they support Diversity & Inclusion. He believes in nothing.
