Unfortunately before this happened the Hawaiians had already lost their right to suffrage due to the western influence and growth in power in Hawaii's government and loss of land because of the mahele and Kuleana act. Hawaiians should be upset. But, could it be that protesters are misguided? Maybe focus should be on homeland issues such as lack of opened homestead land and blood quantum. Maybe focus on the education of all Hawaiians children by bishop estates rather than only certain elite Hawaiian children. I feel the protesters have a golden opportunity to unify All Hawaiians over these types of issues which would enable them to possibly see some form of sovereignty actually take place (hasn't because various sovereignty groups do not agree on goals). By focusing on an issue that is a losing cause, they will only undermine these other arguably more important issues, and possibly divide the Hawaiian people further. The protesters say they are acting for the benefit of their keiki and keiki's keiki, however this a golden opportunity for them to unite against these other issues that can take place that would probably be more beneficial to their keiki<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is my follow up.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0I lived in Puerto Rico up until Hurricane Maria took everything I owned, and I have lived all over the world.<br \/>\nI have been a very libertarian, and anti-borders person most of my life. Meaning I do not support Trump's wall, or his anti-immigration stuff, even though I think he is a good business man, and a better president than most of the USA's presidents in the past.<\/p>\n<p>But I was all for the Puerto Rican sovereignty movement, and I still am. The PR people welcomed my family as their family, very warm and kind people. We had common goals, like fighting off the imposition of the Jones Act, and high taxation.<\/p>\n<p>When I came to Hawaii, basically as a refugee from Puerto Rico after the storms. I also supported Hawaii's sovereignty. Naively I must say. But for many of the same reasons. The imposition of the Jones Act, high taxation, and other government impositions.<\/p>\n<p>But when I have researched it more and more, to me it seems like a very fake and selfish movement. Not like the Puerto Rican sovereignty movement.<\/p>\n<p>I mean for instance, resurrecting Kapu practices 200 years after Kamehameha's son Liholiho destroyed the practice, destroyed the temples, burned the idols, and for nearly 200 years it hasn't been practiced. But now with David Sai's incomplete presentation of the Hawaiian history, and the transfer of power that he talks about as &#8220;illegal occupation&#8221; while ignoring things like the Morgan report, the Abdication Documents, the signed and sworn oath of ex-Queen Liliuokalani to the Republic, and the 20+ letters of recognition from nations all over the world in 4 continents and 11 languages. I mean him skimming out those important details, and making claims such as the Hague case &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/disruptarian.com\/knowledge-base\/larsen-v-hawaiian-kingdom\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Larsen vs. The Kingdom of Hawaii<\/a>&#8221; being in a &#8220;pending status&#8221;, when in all reality the case is NOT pending and has been permanently dismissed.<br \/>\nDr. Sai and others are stirring up racial tension, based on false premises, and it is hurting Hawaii right now.<\/p>\n<p>For instance. Lets look at TMT. That project is going in, like it or not. It is. No stopping it now, I promise.<br \/>\nBut do you think the TMT project is going to hire local workers, if it appears that the local workers HATE the TMT, and may possibly sabotage the job?<br \/>\nNo, the TMT likely now, will hire workers from the Mainland, to protect their investment from locals who would like to see the TMT fail.<br \/>\nOtherwise, if there wasn't all of this fake outrage about a Kapu system and temple that was laid to rest 200 years ago. The TMT project would probably hire local workers.<br \/>\nBut I doubt there is any chance of that now. These protesters fucked all of that up. It will be mainland workers coming in now instead of locals.<br \/>\nI understand the struggles of the Hawaiian people. I talk story with everyone, and I have a <a href=\"https:\/\/disruptarian.com\/cancer-and-the-potential-use-of-cannabis-to-inhibit-cancers-growth\/\" title=\"Cancer and the potential use of cannabis to inhibit cancer\u2019s growth\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"94\">radio<\/a> show that I have done here in Hawaii since 2010. I am an advocate of sovereignty for the most part.<br \/>\nBut this racist stuff, where everyone (even in this conversation) says &#8220;Haole go back to where you came from&#8221;. Makes me less and less interested in supporting this. I despise racism.\u00a0 \u00a0And most of the stuff I get from these activists is just plain racist.<br \/>\nSo I hope people chew on that when they make their next move.<br \/>\nIf you don't support the TMT now. Don't attempt to benefit from the jobs it will produce later.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I very much support the TMT, even though I do not really offer a service that they would be able to use at the facility.\u00a0 But I support it on a species beneficiary level.<br \/>\nThere are a lot of other local Native Hawaiians that support the TMT as well, see this youtube channel:\u00a0 <a
