since 1898 Puerto Rico has been the neoconfederacy’s laboratory for all their Manifest Destiny experiments.
last night’s MAGA slander of Puerto Rico is not coincidental: since 1898 the Neoconfederacy has tried to first block, then roll back USA CITIZENSHIP FOR PUERTO RICANS and all Black & Brown migrants.
REPUBLICANS WANT TO ABOLISH THE POST-CIVIL WAR CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS and that means getting rid of citizenship by being born on USA soil.
hence last night’s baby-making joke… 🧵
