“The chat[s] also reveals that Ricardo Rosselló’s administration inquired about the opposition and their families to obtain information that was later shared on social media through accounts linked to an army of bots to generate adverse public opinion…” #PRStatehood#PRFree
Este es el tipo de personas que apoyan la #PRStatehood: homófobos, intolerantes, misoginos, troles y perdedores, que estan dispuestos a destruir su propio país y gente para llenarse los bolsillos y reírse del sufrimiento de aquellos a quienes se burlan y degradan. #PRIndependence
Reminder that this is the legacy of the statehood movement: far-right, bigoted attitudes and the same kind of voter fraud and oppression the GOP engages in on the mainland.
Surely these are the kinds of people who know what is best for the Puerto Rican people. 🤡 Such admirable and humble people that make up the New Progressive Party. Just look at how progressive their policies are:
We know what @pnp_pr_51 and @ricardorossello truly think of the Puerto Rican people: “whores,” “idiots,” and of course—“cadavers.”
Yes, they truly have our best interests in mind. Statehood is just another one of their benevolent expressions towards the Puerto Rican people. 🙏🏼🤡

los borinqueños somos fuertes—siempre lo hemos sido. ¡descanse bien sabiendo k lucha por la voluntad de los espíritus de sus antepasados! ✊🏽🇵🇷💚
tambien, tenga en cuenta una serie de hechos: (1/
1) tanto la isla, como la diásporiqueños, han mantenido durante mucho tiempo la creencia sagrada en la independencia (592,671 votos en their beloved rEFereNDuM)—así k incluso si roban nuestra tierra, ¡nunca podrán robar nuestra historia! #PRStrong#PatriaNueva#PuertoRicoLibre 💚
We have to understand that white neolibs are not stupid—they are willfully ignorant.
Their solidarity is merely performative, just as it is with #BlackLivesMatter; to educate themselves on the actual history of #PuertoRican politics is not worth possibly losing two Dem senators.
They don’t actually care about the situations they make their ignorant comments on, outside of how black and brown suffering can serve as a tool to benefit white agendas—Again, simply look to #BlackLivesMatter and all of last year’s performative #activism.
There is a strong irony that these faux-progressive white neolibs (and their token black and Latino stooges) amplify their performative beliefs in their bios, hashtags and feeds but their activism stops at actually taking action. They decide to preserve their whiteness instead.
We all know @GovPierluisi and @pnp_pr have engaged in a coup for years, leveling their players into power on the inside, and passing bills like Act 60 to destroy Puerto Rico’s economy from the outside. Then he offers statehood as a Hegelian solution to the problem he caused…
… finishing the job @ricardorossello and Jenniffer Gonzalez started. Once they’ve succeeded in draining Puerto Rico dry as they’ve done for years, if Puerto Rico does become a state, watch how fast they leave to Florida or Hawaii, or even leave the country…
We know that this Old Regressive Party has never cared for Puerto Rico or Puerto Ricans, and their track record proves that. All the years of corruption, of poverty, of stagnation, yet these vampires glut themselves on the lifeblood of Gran Borinquen.
A brief message to all of the independistas out there fighting the good fight for our homeland and our culture: cursing, joking, posting memes, etc., do not in any way nullify or diminish our arguments or the righteous truth inherent to them! ✊🏼🇵🇷 1/
Neoliberal imperialists who have taken everything from us already—our land, our history, our voice, our autonomy—are trying to take the one thing we have left: the very land beneath our feet.
In this moment, anger is righteous. ✊🏼🇵🇷 2/
Don’t fall into their little game of playing the higher ground or waving us away as “emotional Latinos”—if someone came into your home, killed everyone there and sold off your property, you would be emotional, too! 3/
“Second, there is a real question about whether #PuertoRico even wants to become the 51st state… Three times, the people of Puerto Rico said ‘no.’ […]”
