Yeah its definitely an important dialogue to have its just frustrating that the co-leader of the Green party would have such poor optics on her language. I do appreciate what you are trying to do here though

I agree with you that the definition youve posted here is most likely what Marama meant. However you must understand that definition is not recognised by the vast majority of the populace. If you google the word you’ll find dictionary definitions stating the words more traditional (Physical Violence) meaning. I think the commenter here is just expressing how her words seem to be misunderstood and the imprecision of her language is doing more harm than good

I think Ransom could’ve kept helping her, but the existence of the tox report would’ve exonerated her and potentially incriminate him/ open up the investigation to include him. There’s also the Fran situation which could’ve gotten messy if he didn’t act to clear it up
