'bout time to make Puerto Rico a state.

@kimlockhartga Theoretically sure, but IIRC, every time PR residents vote for it, they choose overwhelmingly not to. I don’t understand anything about why, but it’s counterintuitive to me.

@octothorpe maybe they sense exploitation, the rush of developers, that kind of thing?

@kimlockhartga That seems plausible. And maybe also a feeling of loss of self-identity/agency.
