"You're kinda raised to hate..." seems like kind of a common problem for humans.
I mean, in this case I kind of understand it. Hawaii was essentially forced into being part of the US and then forced into being the holiday stop for rich people. I would also hate it if I lived in a small island with lots of tradition and it all was turned into a mere tourist attraction for people who don't give a shit.
It also doesn't help that some rich folk have ravaged the islands by literally buying them
And while that may be, it resonates with my own upbringing in a town transitioning from more traditional industry of logging to tourism with similar hatred of tourism and other incoming groups. I understand the emotions behind it, but it doesn't make it productive or useful. It's a common problem for humanity and Hawaii isn't special in that other than some of the history being more recent.
Americans when they colonize dozens of indigenous islands and commit genocide that Hitler based the holocaust on "smh dont be an unproductive hater!"
It's one thing to have an industry shift (which also sucks), but it's another thing to be colonised, have some of your islands bought and almost completely owned by rich folk, who can do whatever they fuck with them and having to feel like a tenant in your ancestors' lands.
There's one hell of a difference and I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually had an IRA situation there.
Especially those whose land and culture are co-opted by us for our benefit alone.
