    Why on earth would you feel compelled to educate me about my local politics by pulling up some wiki pages and then refusing to even format your message?

    and,

    And Aloha Aina is the local party I had never heard of before seeing them on the ballot,

    TIL

    And why the fuck would anything in this post indicate RFK might be someone to vote for?

    I don’t know, but it might be saying something about ballot acess laws in Hawaiʻi.

    The theoretical appeal of the Greens is progressivism, not the unfortunate antivax shit that’s glommed onto it.

    fair enough.

    And Aloha Aina is the local party I had never heard of before seeing them on the ballot, which may sound good to you because you know nothing about Hawaii, but is something in the vague realm between nutjob sovereign citizen types and conservatives that can’t bear to be Republicans due to history.

    according to WP:

    According to its website, the Aloha ʻĀina party advocates for a sovereign Hawaiʻi through the framework of hoʻoponopono (“making right what is wrong”), believing the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom to have been an unjust act. It also promotes other Hawaiian values such as Mālama ʻĀina (“taking care of the land”) and Aloha Kānaka (“love and care for the people”).[2]
