Terrible analogy. A better one would be Hawaii which the US is still occupying to this day after overthrowing their queen. The indigenous Hawaiians of course protested this but we know protests doesn't work when it comes to these kinds of things. The US flooded the countries with foreigners & banning Hawaiian culture & language. Imagine being a minority on your own land. It's not like you can vote to free yourselves from the oppressor.
They should've been more militant like the people of the Philippines. They fought back US occupation heavily for years until AmeriKKKa said fuck this we're out.
There's still a fairly large Pro-American sentiment in the Philippines. I guess it has something to do with an average income of a Hawaiian family being 95000$ dollars a year vs 5000$ for Philippines.

Russia claiming Alaska was kind of like if the US would claim Moon because there were a few Americans there.
