@matuzalem Yeah I never have understood what exactly their status is. That’s so wrong, they should have had state status for several decades by now.
@cjcrew in 1958 a great majority of Puerto Ricans wanted independence, then they started making dossiers of every activist black mailing them or going after their families, that changed everything.

@matuzalem @peeppeepcircus Yeah, unfortunately that is true.
@matuzalem @cjcrew
