The people of PR voted against becoming a State.

And if they hadn't, would that make the US less of a democratic republic? Not relevant.

Also, see Guam, US Virgin Islands, etc who didn't vote for anything.

It’s incredibly relevant as there has yet to be an election if people in Palestine want to be a part of Israel.
Look, you really like to talk with confidence, but every time you bring up a a point, you pull a whatabout. Have you even looked into what the people you’re so very concerned with want? That’s the most relevant part of all. It’s not your feelings. It’s what the people you say you care about want. It doesn’t appear they want what you want for them, and you’re big mad about that bro.

Keep carrying that white man’s burden.
