Should I kill you with my sword or with my gun?
Sorry, "I want to live" was not an option on the ballot
sigh…
Referendum is literally: "Would you like to be a state or a territory? Independence is not an option."
Sigh...
False dichotomy is when you point out that people might want something other than two shit binary choices.
your lack of ability to imagine another option (such as revolt, etc.) does not mean you “win” the argument. it just means you lose because you lack imagination.
YOUR ARGUMENT is that the result of this referendum matters. It doesn't because, as you've identified, both options are the same. As for Hawaiian resistance, they've been fighting continuously for a hundred years and, like every other liberation movement against the USA, have been ruthlessly suppressed by the fascist police and petty-bourgeoise militia of the "middle class". And, like every other liberation struggle, victory is inevitable as the empire continues to crumble beneath the weight of its sins.
Also, neat how you've got five devoted followers upvoting you within two minutes on every one of your shitty empire-shilling posts for the last several hours
But no down votes!
