actual public freakout thread https://old.reddit.com/r/ActualPublicFreakouts/comments/1iq3jt7/maori_protesters_do_a_haka_to_block_a_pride/

thread on /r/auckland but they just call them gay, not cringe https://old.reddit.com/r/auckland/comments/1ipw1ap/happened_right_now_at_the_pride_parade/
Some dissenters in /r/publicfreakout don't like the haka getting called cringe and gaypilled, object to the haka being politicised
Rugby chad that took to many headbangs thinks the haka is just a cool football dance, proceeds to disown the protestors from the rugby community

It was fun when they'd do it before rugby matches.
when they started doing it in other sports. Seems kind of awkward to watch a basketball team do that for example.
Started to get a bit
Then got embarrassing when wokes picked it up as one of those celebrate-the-outsider demonstrations
maybe now we can just go back to the first stage again

They also fine teams if they don't play along with the Hakka or be respectful of it. Like 10 years ago the New Zealand basketball team did the Hakka in front of the US basketball team. James Harden laughed afterwards and got a fine out of it lol.
