To be sure, nowadays ANY major construction project will be met with "protectors".
The sad thing is how these anti-development "protectors" enjoy the fruits of past development projects.

I follow a few protestors pages on fb and you are 100% correct
Ala Moana beach park project, Waianae windmills, makaha resort development,  new dump in nanakuli.
All these and future ones coming up will be protested

It's interesting that they feel like "now is the time"
They are pushing for voter registration drives and forming their own aloha aina political party

There is much divide though,  people are split between being an oppressed kanaka or participating in the American voting system.

They are also confused as to why "80000 people" can show up to march through Waikiki, "every truck has a flag" , and "hundreds" show up weekly for sign waving,  but more people won't come to the protest to get arrested,  or "hold space", as they call it,  pretty much being in the way

Now is a good time as any to begin reclaiming what was illegally taken away.

Since there is only one goal on the minds of Hawaiians, there is always room to try different strategies to achieve it.

Although not all of us want to break the law and get arrested, that does not mean we do not support those of us who do in the name of the cause.   

New party going to be pro 2a I wonder?

Anywho it proceeded by everyone telling me I'm not Hawaiian enough because I have a Japanese last name

Just like 2a, most of these groups get infiltrated by alphabet agencies as soon as they seem to be gaining traction. Given the large social media presence my guess is this happened already, and the first thing provocateurs are going to do is try and turn the members against each other.
