I don't get it, we've had a couple - one even started a team that carries his name

@Machpants I might be wrong, but my guess is that it is to do with using Aotearoa rather than NZ?

Ah, a bit of casual racism, gotcha. If the unofficial name kiwi can apply to New Zealanders, then fair to say Aotearoa can apply to New Zealand

Yeah, a magazine either being ignorant or casually racist, prolly not a good look.

haha goes to show how easy miscommunication can happen. The magazine saying something out of order i didn't get at all. I thought we were laughing at the OP.

Fuck me, what a confusing set of posts. I too thought we were laughing at the OP. His ignorance, and also the weird use of laughing emoji's seemed odd.

And I can't for the life of me understand how someone controlling the handle of a NZ magazine wouldn't know what Aotearoa is and then manages to get a few thumbs ups and hearts in response

I feel very dumb(er) right now.
