UKIRT To End Maunakea Operations September 15

[MyManao]

Here’s one example of The Hawaiians, at OHA, their group dynamics on display, with none of the imagined consensus some believe they operate under..

I'm still curious, Edge, who is this "some" that you suggest "believe" in an "imagined consensus"?

I ask because the bite, that particular edge to your statement, seems to be hyper critical of a group of people, the Hawaiians, because they don't have a consensus. It's as if you're implying a consensus of this sort is expected, normal, and to not have one makes those that lack such a thing somehow inferior.. lessor than. When in fact I know of no-one, other than you, who suggests such a thing. Sheesh man, in any given house is there ever a consensus over what to eat? What to watch? When to whatever? Have you ever raised kids?

Face it man, I think our, the government we live under, leader is one of the biggest criminals since.. well you can fill in that blank.. whereas it seems to me others think the guy walks on water. Consensus?

The fun part is in how we all can say this or that about one of our own.. sis did this, sis is that, omg sis blah blah blah. But when a neighbor comes and wants to bitch about sis god help them the entire family gonna be in their face, what you say about sis? The same way about countries.. any group, ohana. Just because you privy to them on laundry day don't mean they ain't gonna be wearing their best when they come to the party.

But hey, if the proof is in the pudding, then you know, those Hawaiians that stood up and blocked the road to the mauna.. they looked to me to have a consensus real good. And where you can take the polls and cast the votes, and say otherwise, they stood there looking, acting, and effecting the reality as a consensus.
