Let it go, faggots.
It's their country, not yours.
You didn't even invest in the country, and they're not even the 51st state.

LET IT GO

This place could literally get attacked by Godzilla and nobody would realize until after a week

Also sugar or something

their flag is the liberation flag, but with US colours, the inverse of the Cuban one. that says to me being part of the US liberates them, probably from being Haiti. that's how I read it anyway.

Even our ร…land Islands with 30 000 inhabitants get a 1 guaranteed seat in the parliament. It's pretty insane in the USA where people from Puerto Rico and D.C. of all places have no representation. Wasn't the USA literally founded on no taxation without representation?

It's a colony in a perpetual state of limbo, exploited for resources and cheap labor, without voting rights but under its control

Same thing with Serbia and the EU

It's an island of low IQ retards, half of them live in the US already and have for 70+ years. If they went independent, they'd all starve within weeks. There is no economy there, wtf do you think is going to happen to them? It'll be South Sudan-tier where they descend into chaos and civil war within weeks of independence.

Ok. Now revoke all Puerto Ricans USA citizenship and treat them as illegal aliens now. Super based.
