The obvious difference, is that you're comparing sovereignty over a nation/state's mainland, vs sovereignty over a separate colony, thousands of km away from the mainland (and even used only for military purposes, apparently)

But for sure, the locals would've appreciated it if the US didn't colonise Hawaii https://x.com/SilverSpookGuy/status/1836132280806576289 https://x.com/SilverSpookGuy/status/1836132280806576289
