This is the kind of wacky behavior that manifests among persons living the SJW hypersensitive lifestyle.

I am not sure how sensitive it is of the gal to bare a symbol of death, where the kids and faint of heart must see it. After all, we live in a society in which university professors must warn their students, before they utter disturbing sentences or show such pictures.
Wow, what a lucky guy her boyfriend must be..
Hawaiians sell them and profit from them
They are sold in tourist shops, Hawaii's number one industry is tourism
I guess the chiquita banana girl is racist

Fair point. Like I said, I have never thought about it. All I know is I'm not Hawaiian so I don't think it is my place to decide for them what they should or shouldn't find offensive. And something tells me the passenger in that video wasn't Hawaiian.
I suppose I could be convinced that a Hawaiian hula bobble might be offensive to some Hawaiians. I have honestly never thought about it. But holy crap! That passenger came off incredibly annoying and, yes, entitled herself. Let's say such bobble heads are culturally insensitive. That doesn't give you free reign to treat another human like a peace of ****. His mistake, if it was one, was unintentional. The passenger's poor behavior was intentional.
If she wanted to educate him all she had to do was say something like, "Hey man, just a little heads up. It is possible if you ever have ethnic Hawaiian passengers they might find that bobble head offensive. Some people aren't crazy about aspects of their culture being appropriated for the purpose of making trinkets."
"Seriously? I have NEVER heard of such a thing."
"I understand. I hadn't heard about it until recently either. It's no big deal. Just sharing some info I learned. Do with it what you will. So did you watch the Olypics this year? So that Usain Bolt, he sure is fast."

What does this have to do with social justice activism? This thread is a straw man.
"SJW" is what people call them in order to form character attacks instead of addressing the things they actually say or do. Nobody calls them SJWs but their political opponents. They made up the term and they're the only ones who use it.
She's not psychotic she's just stupid. And she has nothing to do with social activism. :shrug:

Do you think a group has to embrace their pejorative in order for it to be relevant?
