Chinese-Samoan David Wong-Tung posted a meme on his Facebook account today that read “Unite Against CINDY-20” and another over the weekend with a photo of Ms. Ardern with the caption “The Incredible Sulk.”
This afternoon, he shared a link from the National Party Meme Working Group with a screenshot of a commenter calling Mr. Wong Tung an “ape”.
Ms. Collins was asked about her husband posting memes during a media confrontation today, saying that she had not been able to get him to listen to her at any point in their 41-year relationship.
“Do you know that we have been together for 41 years? I’ve never been able to get him to do anything I tell him to do, ”he said.
“So I said, ‘It’s not what I would do,’ but he’s an adult, he makes his own decisions and I think he gets tired of people trying him and me.”
Mr. Wong-Tung repeatedly defended his posting of the memes in the comments on the posts, saying it was just his opinion and that it was great to be able to share his opinion in a democracy.
