Will the mountain pay taxes, get married, and have children?

I know it's a Maori religion rite, but to me this is ridiculous pandering.

Just another reason the entire Anglosphere is going to hell in a handbasket.

Can the mountain be sued for damages resulting from a climber being injured or killed while on the mountain if proven there was no negligence on the part of the climber?

The main thing on the new “person’s” mind:
How can I sue for reparations?

Can’t recall all the details but when people in the failing US under Bill Clinton used to muse about finding a new country somewhere else the two cited were Australia and New Zealand.

But Robert Ringer (Looking Out for #1; Winning Through Intimidation) said both of them have requirements that if, as a business or other enterprise owner wanted to fire an employee you could have the government’s permission only if you lined up an appropriate replacement job for that employee somewhere else. It was your responsibility to make sure he or she had income and benefits after you fired them.

When I heard of each later woke idea I thought it wasn’t surprising.

Trump can top that one.

Mount Denali in Alaska now self identifies as a male ex American President.

Is there a “Trans-Mountain” in New Zealand’s future?

I hope the mountain does not mind getting mandatory jabs now and then.

“Will the mountain pay taxes, get married, and have children?”

Can it vote???

Does the mountain, all on its own, decide how it can be used?

These ideas, humanizing things in nature and assigning them “human rights” is part of the mental and intellectual devolution of humanity.

It is one thing to respect nature and have respectful management of nature, but quite another giving “personhood” to things in nature. It’s insane.

Pure stupidity. If someone dies on it, is it murder?

White people from every country need to STOP APOLOGIZING for everything our ancestors. And stop giving in to the idiots calling is stolen land.

New Zealand's Mount Taranaki is now legally a person

Excellent!

Now when Mount Taranaki negligently kills an underage child, we can punish Mount Taranaki by Nuking Mount Taranaki to below sea level.

New Zealanders will have ringside seats, ... whether they want them or not.

New Zealanders need to be introduced to the concept of civilization. And not just the Maori.
