The louder moonbats screeched that the fire in Maui was so devastating because “climate change,” the more obvious it became that the actual problem was moonbattery:

During the inferno that devastated part of the island of Maui, wiping entire towns off the map and possibly killing more than a thousand people (once a full assessment can be made), people on Maui begged state officials to allow West Maui stream water to be diverted to fill up reservoirs for firefighting. That request went to M. Kaleo Manuel, Deputy Director of Hawaii’s Commission on Water Resource Management, and he delayed approval of that water for five hours – five hours in which the once-contained fire exploded. By the time the approval was received, workers were unable to reach the siphon release so that the water could be diverted. Now we’re learning that Manuel, an Obama Foundation Leader for the Asia Pacific Region, is a climate change activist and DEI devotee who’s said, “Like, we can share [water], but it requires true conversations about equity.”

In accordance with his religion (i.e., moonbattery), Manuel takes a “holistic system perspective” on water, which evidently prevents it from being used appropriately against fires.

According to his official government biography,

[O]ver the past 10 years, Kaleo has focused on bringing planning and indigenous knowledge to the fields of water advocacy and management in Hawai‘i.

Applying “indigenous knowledge” means addressing emergencies with the effectiveness of savages.

Put kooks like this in positions of responsibility and there will be consequences:

While Hawaii was burning down and Crazy Mazie Hirono shrieked along with the media about the global warming hoax, this wokester was having “a true conversation about equity” with the voices in his head.

In earlier times, authorities might have addressed the fire by throwing virgins down a volcano to appease the gods. Similarly, our modern response to any problem liberals associate with weather is to double down on green posturing in lieu of taking constructive action.
