A comment on The Media Has Neglected Puerto Rico. Parent comment

I think it is rather likely they were aware of the connotation.

And the comment you replied to is also likely aware of such. That's why they pointed out a global cooperative body making noises about Puerto Rico and decolonization.

Also, your mention of Haiti is confused; it was a French colony, not a colony of the UK or US.

Nice catch. And yeah, I just wanted to try and make things clear - no intention to be sassy.
