Vandalised would be a more accurate description.
Posting this mostly to comment on the near daily culture war distractions being peddled by the government to distract from all the horrible shit they’re doing, and the effect this is having to embolden bigots and fascists to commit more extreme acts.

I wonder if this is where we will see the “hard on crime” stance show up? 🤔
Nah they won’t act against their base - those are “operational matters for the police”. We’ll see it when there’s counter action akin to the anti TERF protests last year.
Classic - a great take, for sure!
On one hand the crossing looked awful and used the ugly new flag. But that doesn’t give anyone except the council the right to remove. Pure hate motivated crime.
I honestly feel sorry for the people who did this, it’s a horrible way to live your life.
3 guesses who’s the culprit. Unrelated link below.
TL;DR: EFTPOStle Brian Tamaki and his so-called Christians.
Prosecute this as the hate crime that it is.
Looks like they may be doing just that: Police treat painting over of Auckland’s K’ Road rainbow crossing as hate crime
Destiny church have been hate filled shit cunts for a very long time, I don’t think you can blame this on the government.
Besides, National haven’t said anything against the rainbow community, to my knowledge.
I’m blaming the government for emboldening it through their constant culture war bullshit, not for this actual act. They are definitely connected issues.
National aren’t the whole government. ACT and NZ First are well into this to try and stave off the coalition curse, and National is unable to control them.
What on earth are you on about?
What parts of what I said do you find confusing?
None of what you just said made any sense. What culture war are you talking about?
The war being waged by ACT, NZF and National. The war against liberals, maori, the woke etc.
imagine being such a weak snowflake of a human being that you feel vandalism is the answer to inclusion.
what absolute babies.
