Unfortunately, this unusual tameness was used to their disadvantage: as Darwin notes, men "frequently killed them in the evening, by holding out a piece of meat in one hand, and in the other a knife ready to stick them."

So basically, by voting to remain British, the Falklanders' self-determination is to have their self-determination violated: that's the only possible outcome of remaining part of an empire that will sell you off as soon as it becomes more convenient for them: that it will inevitably become more convenient for them at some point. So the two referenda gave the Falklanders a choice between becoming Argentine now, or becoming Argentine later: get out of bed, or hit the snooze button.

yeah but it's like a 40 year snooze button, and that's permanent enough for most people.
