I'm actually wondering when I'm getting my support group - as someone in a minority group who actually gets online, verbal and physical abuse threats on a daily basis..
So you're a white male. The most bullied group on the planet for the last few years.
Fortunately I can deal with it. I'm sure that you can too. The pricks that drag this stuff up that I am not allowed to punch annoys me.

Stop with the mysoginistic gender typical beauty stereotypes

I wouldn't worry too much ... they'll be their own downfall. Two clear examples
- Caitlyn Jenner now being a transphobe, because she doesn't believe trans woman should play woman sport. Caitlyn fucking Jenner is transphobic!!!!
- Labour voting up here in the by-election / councils. Got woke, going broke.

In today's episode.. change of location to another hotbed of PC bullshit.. school..
kids house names are Colenso, Selwyn, Patterson and another I forget. Named after the local settlers / priests or some bollicks.. all road names etc around the hood.
Anyhoo the kids come home last night and tell me they're changing the names "because they're not Maori they're racist".

Jesus, erasing history like the cultural revolution. Did they get issued with their little red books with smiling Jacinda on the cover?

Brilliant, so they are going to make them racist.

But it's reverse racist. So that's OK 👌

The irony is, if my history serves me right, that Colenso was a defender of Zulu rights.. (and Bishop Selwyn sermonized against racism ...)

Hey, don't let the facts get in the way! Old white guys bad!

So the anti racists are being replaced by people who are being chosen because of their race. You couldn't make this shit up.

or, alternatively, a school is replacing names from guys who lived 150 years ago in another part of the world with something that holds a little more local relevance. But sure, have a pile on.

Whilst I completely agree with the sentiments, on the other hand, were the people who named our towns taking the absolute piss.
For example, why would you name a town Gore, I mean friggen Gore, and ignore the Maori name Maruawai. I mean, I would visit Maruawai, I wouldn't dream of going to Gore. Fuck that!
Te Kohurau became Kurow (or Kooz to locals). FFS, what were they thinking?
Let's get rid of the shit town names in NZ! -

Historical significance rather than racially selected?

no I dunno anything about someone being defender of Zulu rights on the other side of the world - that's just coincidence - the people they're named after are all local settlers.

@williethewaiter I don't know which Colenso you are talking about but the S African one was famous as it was a battle in the Boer War... but you must know who Bishop Selwyn is/was...?

The Colenso after which loads of places are named in NZ is William Colenso. He was the printer who printed the Treaty of Waitangi, and who was responsible for the definitive account of the Treaty signing. Ironically he may have been one of the most deserving of all the people celebrated in school house names etc. Apart from his fling with one of the local wahine here in Napier which was, you know, a bad thing.

Good on ya Selwyn, put that mouthy bitch in her place.
Ah such simple times.....even for the 70s this is so hilariously chauvinistic.
