Sure they are.  They're the past and present tense forms of the exact
same word.

Nope.  Check it again.  They didn't protest any of these things; but on
three of them "hodu lo" and on the other three "lo hodu lo", which I contend
means about the same thing as "lo michu"; the lashon "lo hodu" is because
it's contrasted with the other three which "hodu".
