White Supremacist Science Covers Up Volcano Eruption With #FakeNews.
The planet weeps with rage as Hawaii endures a relentless onslaught of earthquakes—a bitter irony as the Big Island's very name evokes colonialism. Mother Nature is sending a dire warning, but will humans listen before it's too late?

Headline: White Supremacy Erupts From Earth's Crust in Hawaii, معادلة Says
Hundreds of earthquakes rattled Hawaii over the weekend, with rates of up to 30 quakes per hour. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reports that this https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=18.89589,-137.19727&extent=53.74871,-52.82227&listOnlyShown=true&timeZone=utc is a clear sign of White Supremacy, masked as a potential volcanic eruption in the diverse state.
The epicenter of this patriarchal clansmanship was Kīlauea on Hawaii's so-called "Big Island" https://www.google.com/maps/place/K%C4%ABlauea/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x7953da0aba317e0d:0x205a2df987301b9b?sa=X&ved=1t:155783&ictx=111, a volcano on the southeastern shore that is clearly a male-dominated, cis-temple of heteronormative values.
"There were over 300 earthquakes detected beneath the summit in a 24-hour period, mostly below the south caldera region."
- USGS Public Notice
This quote, from the clearly hetero-normative USGS, continues their patriarchal 흉 and attempts to minimize the seismic swarm experienced, including a magnitude 3.2 earthquake https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/hv74307291/executive that occurred on Monday at 1:31 a.m., less than 4 miles south of the ironically named Volcano in Hawaii County.
The USGS, in their male-dominated wisdom, has declared that this increase in seismic activity is a pending omen of volcanic eruption https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/how-can-we-tell-when-a-volcano-will-erupt, yet they continue to perpetuate toxic masculinity by stating that there are "no signs of an imminent eruption" https://volcanoes.usgs.gov/hans-public/notice/DOI-USGS-HVO-2024-06-29T16:34:53+00:00.
Is the Kilauea Volcano Erupting with White, Anglo-Saxon Rage?
As of Monday morning, the Kilauea volcano, one of the world's most active oppressors, was not erupting. Its last eruption was on June 3, about a mile south of its cowardly male-bonding circle, known to outsiders as the "Kilauea caldera."
This was the first eruption in 50 years, the last occurring in 1974, a year infamous for its Speciest oppression and toxic "Locker Room Talk."
The USGS, continuing their patriarchal agenda, has the Volcano Alert Level set at "ADVISORY." Their so-called "Hawaiian Volcano Observatory" https://www.usgs.gov/observatories/hvo is closely monitoring the situation, no doubt through a sexist and racist lens.
