In illegally occupied Hawaii, the goal has always been genocide of the indigenous. The UN needs to kick the USA out of Hawaii.

[-] Chapo_is_Red@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

How's this dumb? They're correct. The US is illegally occupying Hawaii and persecutes the indigenous to that end.

I get the feeling you just like licking imperialists' boots.

It's too bad you never found out that announcing blocks only makes you look more pissy and pompous. wojak-nooo

[-] hexthismess@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

Wow, what inciteful and valuable commentary you've added.

[-] mateomaui@reddthat.com -1 points 1 year ago

It’s not worth the trouble. I’ve lost friends and will be helping others rebuild. Whatever you think is irrelevant. Bye bye now.

Lemmygrad users are very creative at finding unexpected and loopy new ways to criticize the American government.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 year ago

Remind me what's loopy about pointing out that US occupies Hawaii and genociding the native population there colonizer?

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

This is the best summary I could come up with:


HONOLULU (AP) — Residents who survived the wildfire that leveled the Hawaii town of Lahaina might not be able to afford to live there after it is rebuilt unless officials alter the zoning laws and make other changes, economists warned Friday.

Soaring housing prices have already forced many Native Hawaiians and other longtime Hawaii residents to leave the islands and move to the U.S. mainland.

The wildfire that claimed at least 97 lives and destroyed 2,200 buildings in the West Maui community of Lahaina — 86% of which were residential — amplifies that problem for the survivors.

A spike in housing costs would be a further burden for people — including retirees and those who worked in restaurants, hotels and shops — who lost their homes and jobs when their places of employment burned to the ground on Aug. 8, or when West Maui temporarily closed to tourism after the disaster.

At a news conference on Thursday at the state Capitol, Green stressed that the displaced survivors won’t be forced out of hotels to make room for tourists, with October typically being a slow month for tourism.

“Outsiders should not have the opportunity to grab land or properties because emotions are running high, so everyone is vulnerable,” Melody Lukela-Singh, whose home on Lahaina’s renowned Front Street burned, said recently.

This is something to keep an eye on from this disaster. I hope some good policy and solutions get put in place to get proper housing back in place for the working locals.

[-] alienanimals@lemmy.world -5 points 1 year ago

Did they not have insurance? Shouldn't they have ample money to rebuild? I don't understand.
