I always thought them eating him was great. Sad it’s not true 😉

The 'okina (upside down apostrophe mark which doesn't exist in most fonts) is unnecessary in "Hawaiian". It's not a word in the language of the kānaka maoli,ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi, it's an English word. And "Big Island" really should be capitalized. It's not just a description. And YASSSSS! fucking fake Lono deserved it! Cook was an ass and milked the misunderstanding for all it was worth and started the VD plagues and other diseases that swept through the population.

Maybe his death was commensurate to the pain he caused (stabbed v colonisation? Yeah, Nah), but the Hawai'ians can't have known that, suffice to say they knew fuckery was afoot and finally got on the front one.
