no aloha

influencers who move to Hawaii and use Hawaii for content but never speak up for the communities who need help during or after disasters

areas of Hawaii (including east Maui where she lives) experiencing some of the worst devastation we’ve seen from hurricane Lala and not a single mention of it on any of her pages to her thousands of followers, just fit checks and cat videos and book promo… when even just a quick story share of a mutual aid post or recovery effort could make an impact on people who need so so so much fucking help right now.

Read the room! Literally just share even one post that could help and that’s the absolutely bare minimum! Entire houses were washed away, whole towns cut off and people are dealing with tremendous losses from outages.

I guess since u can’t blame a hurricane on the homeless she has nothing to say about it.

When disasters hit us here in Hawaii, it’s all hands on deck. We need everybody to contribute and take care of each other, especially the people who have access and connections to people off island with MONEY.

Just adds to the layers of grief and rage towards extractive settlers who take and never give back or support the places they occupy. These influencers are all the same. They say they love Hawaii and they come here, they take land, they take resources, and when the call for help goes out, they are silent and self-absorbed just posting selfish content. Just go back to LA already, fuck!

colonizer tings

Her posting about closing on her house… white settler colonizer from LA buys 5acre property on Maui as more and more Native Hawaiian and local families are displaced every day and forced to live on the streets, in cars, or move away entirely… the land will never love her back.

we’ve talked before about her allegiance to losers in previous posts: https://www.reddit.com/r/sighswoonsnark/s/UySPC59bbF

the people she chooses to center in her work says a lot about the world she exists in

- bigots
- rapists
- facists
- transphobes
- homophobes
- racists
- oligarchs
- misogynists
- exploiters

she really is a darling of the new age tech right… just the same regressive, oppressive, closed minded, brainwashed, world-eroding, anti-humanity, anti-empathy, anti-life messaging repackaged for extremely online woman who crave power within these systems, but I guess when all your money comes from right wing grifting and publishers what u gonna do?
