Part 3: Hawaii vs. U.S. Imperialism
Resources here (scroll past transcript): http://www.pinkyshow.org/archives/episodes/090611_Hawaii03/090611_hawaii03_credits.html
Hawaii is the 50th state of the USA, right? (Well, actually “no”…) Pinky zooms through 500 years of the history of imperialism in order to explain why the U.S. has worked so hard to obscure the truth about Hawaii.

I don’t understand why YouTube allows the big channels to put up videos longer than 10 minutes but they won’t allow the smaller channels to upload videos longer than 10 minutes

the museum In …
the museum In Washington DC is called The Native American Indian Museum. Native American Peoples find no offense as far as I know And I am one.

No, it is not a …
No, it is not a state. Native Hawaiian only make up 20% of the population. So they have a small voice as to next to the other people living there. Texas became a state in a legal way but it’s has tryed to break away from the US, twice with in the last 200 years. If you go to the Smithsonian, you will find in the backrooms, Uniforms, Helmets, and many other things from the Hawaiian Army before it was taken over. You cannot believe everything that they put in your high school US history books.

Because I’m …
Because I’m apparently pulling out a dusty high school history book to form this opinion? Hardly. Take some political science, then comment back.
Btw, I did NOT say there weren’t conflicts, and I did NOT say there weren’t issues. You’re uming. If you’re going to insult me, the least you could do is DIRECTLY address my comment.

Which is interesting, because native americans call each other ‘indian’ more frequently than any other term.

It would help if they’d drop the spam obsession. You know, WW2 ended — food rationing is over. We have a thing called HAM now. Try it.

Look, more goalpost moving.
Do you even bother to address my points? OF COURSE NOT! Since I don’t agree with you, I CAN ONLY BE an ignorant moron that hasn’t educated myself on the subject – strangely while YOU are the one avoiding all the questions.
Double standard from .

Everything does …
Everything does indeed become a little bit tangled up if you start looking backwards in history…
What I mean is… in order for me to do something as my conscience tells me, I wouldn’t fight for an independent Hawai’i, I would fight for an independent world, free of nations, free of corporations and free of religions.
The history of hawai’i isn’t that much different from the history of all of the world. You just have to dig a little and you find the rotten corpses everywhere.
Thanks.

i think that communism is not advantageous for the population…you kwon that it failed in russia and china too…the capitalism adpted in america is much more advantageous for industry…that’s why america is so rich

Thieves in America …
Thieves in America rob resources of other countries and enslaved people.. That had nothing to do with capitalism. Rises of the poor under a community value and central mobalization is not able hating capitalism. In fact, even the thieves in the U.S. secretly do not call Communist country communism. They called it competitive capitalism. The idea of these poor countries is that to grow their industries first before let it compete in a global market without enslaving anyone like the thieves.

I am sure Hawaii …
I am sure Hawaii have some rotten corse somewhere, but tht at does not mean that we should embrace robbery as normal thing. We should let the Hawaiian people determine their own future. This is why I support the Hawaiian’s right to freedom and independence from the thieves’ occupation.
Thanks

No but calling a …
No but calling a Native American an Indian isn’t the most politically correct thing to say either. It might not be on the same level as , but it is a word born of ignorance. & in the end its wrong. Ultimately , people from India are Indians and thats what.
June 29th, 2009 at 1:04 pm
It is NOT at all …
It is NOT at all politically incorrect. I don’t know why everyone thinks that just because it was an accidentally given name then that just automatically means it’s somehow offensive or wrong.

There are currently …
There are currently in place MANY protections for Hawaiian land and culture. To consider them “occupied” is short-sighted.
Yes, some Hawaiians believe they were ‘taken over’. Some Alaskans and Texans too. You could rarely find one place in the world where someone didn’t already inhabit and was ‘taken over’ or otherwise altered by other peoples.
The simple fact remains, they are a state. If they didn’t want to be, they would secede or disrupt daily travel. They don’t, and won’t.

I don’t understand why YouTube allows the big channels to upload videos longer than 10 minutes, but they won’t let the small channels do it
