Ridiculing the culture of the Hawaiian people is offensive and immature. When I first learned of Punatalk, I was appreciative of the many insights shared. Over time, I recognized that it's a bulletin board largely to help newcomers. My wife and I are lifelong residents of Hawaii, though have lived in Puna for only 8 years,and we appreciated what we learned.
I am saddened that Punatalk seems to be increasingly the forum for snarky newcomers who flaunt their assumed superiority. Essentially it is racism.
