    Uninhabited islands are not uninhabitable and the only value of a place is not whether people can live on it. The northwestern Hawaiian islands are a marine sanctuary valued even though barely anyone goes there. This argument is like saying the deep Everglades are unexploited, so we might as well dump our trash there.

    What the fuck? They are literally dumping this shit in the Gulf of Mexico RIGHT NOW.

    Why is this shitty little island out in the middle of nowhere a problem?!

      same here all around. but if my octogenerian neighbors can take the time to demand that my great grand children i'll never meet have a planet worth living on, then i can do the same for the next generations, too. it doesn't have to be an all consuming fight, it's a marathon not a sprint, afterall. but that marathon starts with setting a goal, and one of those goals should be a planet where a long term view of resource management is taken. just accepting "it has to be somewhere" ignores the truth that it doesn't need to be at all. that people's ancestral lands matter. that clean oceans and ecosystems matter. destroying something in the name of progress isn't progress.

      it doesn't have to be much. it starts with saying your local community should be cleaner, and that it shouldn't just dump its waste in another community. we all live together, ultimately.

          we both are. but you have to think global and act local. our power is in our ability to convince the people around us that there's something wrong with the way things are and something to be done about it. so it starts with county politics, state politics, national politics, and then global. movements take years and they always start with shifting what's possible

            it's time to accept that America is a Christian nation. it shouldn't be, but we're already getting Christian sharia laws, like women should be forced to give birth even if they die, or if the fetus is non viable.

            there will be more sharia coming soon.

            we should call those laws like that.

              It shouldn't, it's meant to be a secular democracy.

              However, it is clearly a Christian theocratic state.

                  Better not mess with sacred stuff in Hawaii. You could wake up with a tarantula crawling on your chest.

                    lol why did they emphasize that they are American citizens? So if these were non-Americans it would be fine I guess.

                    They mention that because people in the US are stupid enough to not understand that residents of Puerto Rico, Guam, Hawaii, and some other places are US citizens.

                      I thought Kessler-syndrome was the real kicker, not greenhouse gasses.

                      LEO items can't Kessler. They can barely keep themselves from falling back through the atmosphere.

                        Hawaiian people should be in turn given a permission to explode some rockets over White House.

                            Should ask Texas residents living next to Starbase how that's working out for them. I can sum it up, it's not. You get what you voted for!

                                    You are steadfastly dedicated to not getting the point while simultaneously whining about downvotes. Have an angry day where you think everyone else is the problem.

                                          Okay, so let’s put it this way. If the federal govt decided that people could take dumps in Your grandparents garage without asking, you would protest right? And if they said “well, your grandparents don’t live in The house so it shouldn’t be a problem”- it’d be a problem right?
                                          And then someone posts the article on here and someone types out a defense “yeah but it’s a garage, its uninhabitable” and then later “WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS SHITTY LITTLE ISLAND?” …. You’re getting this right?
