Doing some work on my condo so I can raise my rates on VRBO. Been here a week so far and lots of driving to, "get stuff".

This place is more of a political bubble than the SF gay area. When I was there I could at least find non-leftist points of view on the AM radio.

Here nada.

Just a bunch of lame ass fuckers on NPR and other channels blaming Trump for the mail bomber. It's all due to violent Republican rhetoric. So one sided it ain't funny. So dramatic and emotional about it too. Trump is such a low brow meanie!

Concerns me from an investment standpoint although I hear the state is relaxing restrictions after starting to realize they are destroying their tax base by being eco-nazis to the point where many buildings aren't allowed to repair things like sink holes after storms.

Maui has split economies. There is the standard commercial economy with chain stores like Costco. There is the relatively cheap underground economy, from Filipinos and natives for each other, but also available to tourists if they look. Lastly, there is rip off HaoleFuck economy fleecing the mainland tourists at huge markups.

I'm just saying that GMO crops are a bigger ecological threat


I'm a genetic scientist who grows lots of plants as a hobby and I say that's hogwash.

I don't believe the environment is really their reason behind this rules.


You might be right here!

So true, people ask if I live here and I tell them I go back and forth to my condo. Prices are roughly halved after that. Then I give a generous tip.

but anti-white racism remains pervasive.


So let's be clear. When a group of invaders take your land, resenting that isn't racism. By your definition, Irish are racist against English.

Respect our language.


Do you even reason, bro? Read the linked articles and show me current examples of comparable behavior in Ireland, e.g. attacking children simply because their parents are English. Respect evidence and reason, and our language.

Another issue in Hawaii is racism against white people, including hate crimes. "Kill Haole Day" peaked in the 1970s, but anti-white racism remains pervasive.

How do you explain all the gluten sensitivity then?

Yeah. In Ireland, they BOMB English.

See, an act of aggression, by itself, doesn't allow you to automatically cry racism. You have to examine root cause, not just throw around words like "reason". Root cause of Hawaiian hate for whitey, conquering of their islands, primarily to use as a military base. I feel like I shouldn't have to explain this, but you seem to have a disconnect between your reason and root cause analysis.

You used the present tense. Respect our language. Cite current examples. You haven't, and I doubt you can.

Er, how do YOU explain it?

I got a question for you - is there really any difference between modern "GMO" created crops and ancient created crops like corn? After all, corn only grows where humans plant it, and corn was created from a form of grass by the ancient American Indians through selective breeding or some lost technique.


Basically no. Same with cows and just about everything we have eaten for 1000s of years. Just quite a bit quicker and requiring much less luck.
