the word haole existed before the arrival of captain cook. it’s a very old word that appears in a story about the demigod kamapua’a. “he haole nui, maka ‘alohilohi.” also, the word does not mean without breath. the word ha’ole is a different word entirely.

“look at the haoles walking on the beach.”
refrence from hawai’i meaning foreigner. this can be anyone who is not local meaning people from the mainland, tourists, or just white people. mostly used as a term for a white person, but can mean anyone foreign.

sometimes used as a deragotory term against white people.
originated from hawai’i as a term for foreigners due to the fact that they refused to perform the ritual of sharing their mana through their breath, hence “no breath” definition.

other times it can be used just for refrence to white people.
deragotory: f-ckin haoles taking over.
casual: yea, had 2 hawaiians and one thick haole guy coming at me.
the word haole when used on the islands has many different meanings, historically accurate or not. it is generally accepted as ‘white person’ among caucasians, but most see it as foreigner or outsider. it is a widely accepted exclusionary word based on race, justified or not.
kamaaina (local): “brah, we get plenty choke haole on aina”

word that meth-addicted, illiterate, sh-t-for-brains locals use when they need a convenient scapegoat to blame for their impotence.

most commonly used by hapa people with only a drop of hawaiian blood, who somehow think they are descended from sea-faring god-kings.

ironically, the people who use this word the most, are part haole themselves, and therefore hate themselves.

i.e. the race card… to be played whenever things don’t go exactly their way.
it’s racism pure and simple.
funny that the one of the most genetically diverse group of people is also one of the most racist.
