Sure

Hollodero referred to Puerto Rico as a colony.
Jason comically added that we prefer to call them a territory probably because it sounds less imperialistic to what Hollodero was implying?

Then I added how slave labor in WWII is bad when the Nazis did it but if worded differently it takes on a whole different meaning when we, the supposed good guys, did the same thing. Kind of like one man's Inheritance tax is another man's Death tax.

It had little to do with Puerto Rico and more to do with a play off of their word usage.
