    Correction to her story about Kihawahine and the mo’o of Hawai’i… she said mo’o were able to go from island to island, but in fact only Kihawahine could go from island to island. Most of the other mo’o were actually confined to a certain area. It was Kihawahine’s ability to move about freely that made other mo’o jealous and resentful of Kihawahine… well that and that she was said to very powerful.

    With their long history of canoes, The canoe was named after the zenith star Arcturus, which passes directly overhead of the Hawaiian Islands and has been named “the star of gladness.”

    Governor Green and his non elected WEF friends with "forceful pursuasive tactics endorsed in order to compell the desired response" are responsible for poor community relations.

    The government has the overwhelming power to be a bully, not citizens, especially under the fascism that governs this state.

    Never forget that deadly betrayal comes from within.

    Some things are too grave to "just get over."

    We made Hawaii fascist when we only voted democrat for more than 50 years.

    We've been betrayed by many who look and talk like us, but stab us in the back with sacrificial daggers, our ancestors' memory, and the survival of our culture.

    Now all of Hawaii must stand together against the fascist state that aims to erase us from memory, even from the land.

    Citizens around the world must stand with the people of Hawaii, or they will erase us all – using each other to fight their war against us.

    The "Emergency Proclamation Regarding Housing" that is attached to HB 869, removes development restrictions, and removes protections of sacred cultural sites, altars, burial caves & lands, handling of sacred remains and artifacts.

    This is the destruction of the Hawaiian culture and erasure from human history.

    Let's examine who benefits:
    Bill Gates – 15 Minute Cities, Fire resistant building products, artificial meat (liss of wild game due to epidemic of uncontrollable 'wildfires' – with many determined by authorities to have been arson.

    Let's examine $95M in federal funds promised by Biden "to upgrade Maui's electric grid", and Bill Gates purchases $95M worth of Bud Light stock.

    RICO Investigation, anyone?

    "Be Nice" "Exercise aloha" are all 'keys' used in neural linguistic programming in order to illicit or diminish a certain behavior.

    God calls on HIS children to have courage and to be righteous – not to be nice.

    A prayer for all of us:
    "Eternal Father
    Grant victories to the forces of good and inflict humiliating defeat upon the forces of evil.

    By the merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Sorrowful Heart of Mary I pray.

    In the Name of the Father + and of the Son + and of the Holy Spirit +
    Amen "

    Solidz! I grew up there as why I stay talk ly deese pidgin reservation kine slang, but who cares we’re all native to this place called America which brings us to what we have in common. That is let us focus less on what the wasicu haole likes to promote which is whaling towns and Wild West and more presentational highlighting of the doctrine of discovery which the Supreme Court uses to keep native land claims extinguished against brown chiefs and kings in favor of white kings for that sums up the racism of Americas hidden ignorance after all those European countries joined together to form America before they formed the League of Nations and then todays United Nations. Let not our separation from culture n language be the white mans bar set for us for land back for that may only let in pretendians to learn us to fool them thinking it’s us meanwhile all the lineal descendants will be looking for ways to sue using their genealogy and not fitting the image at all. Amazing interview, I can’t wait to corner those American asshat patriots hearing them trying to defend their king Henry, thank you! Keep up the great stuff, America can really wake up to real history and solutions through you!
