Māori boy genius

A term used by other Māori to describe a Māori person who is held up by the community for their success in the White world, or proficiency in the Māori language BUT whose tikanga ain't shit. It is likely they profit off their indigeneity while continuing to spread classist, homophobic, transphobic, and racist ideas.

James was know as a Māori boy genius because held down the paepae but refused to address his toxic misogyny
