Is this a fucking joke
This really is the dumbest timeline. I can’t even make up satire shit that is more wild than what is now.
Just waiting for the TVA to prune us.
It’s like the shitpost version of blitzkrieg. Just overwhelming you with absolute diarrhea for the soul. And it’s working, even though we all know it’s happening.
That’s their plan.
You know, I had the shitty thought that at least back before chat communication, a robber baron (or it’s equal kind) had to actually hire thugs and henchmen to cause local chaos. Now it’s just some tech oligarch with some bots or a paid anonymous service causing disruption.
We really got fucked over on this one. I’m really not sure how America pulls itself out of this one with the state of education and political polarization. The federal part of our government definitely isn’t offering up any solutions.
You expressed it well. The best solution to our generational crisis is one that takes a generation or so to build-up (education) and that Republicans have already spent at least a generation already tearing down. We’re sitting ducks.
It’s like the dark ages
Why are Americans so riled up about this?
Do you guys not realize that this reaction is literally one of the reasons they do this? To be a distraction and to show their base that they made the bad people™ cry about it.
Why are Americans so riled up about this?
For me, it’s the blatant racism with some fascist nationalism thrown in.
I think you’re under thinking this.
The primary focus of Trump since coming to office has been securing natural resources. Greenland, Canada, Ukraine all have rich mineral deposits. Even the Panama shit is about controlling a geographic “resource”…the canal.
This rename is about making it sound like it belongs to the US. What’s there a lot of here? Oil. And it sits under international waters.
The US already has a lot of rights to the oil there. but the rigs aren’t pumping because despite the drill, baby, drill crap US oil companies already have too much supply. He wants them to drill just to look like they’re doing more shit.
Come on man if we are crying racism over this is nonsense no-one will actually listen to us when we are actually facing real racism.
This is exactly what they want.
It doesn’t for me that’s weird.
Edit: if you put a pin it does show America
I’m gonna put a pin in this, but I’ll come back to it later
Today I’ve officially made organic maps my primary. I’m gonna try to make it work.

If you’re a dumbass.
He’s a bot
Maybe if enough people file feedback on the name change they will reconsider. At least they will have a glut of feedback to deal with.
Starting a petition to have places renamed for Canadians.
No longer the USA, it shall be called the 4th Canadian territory: south central Canada
The arctic shall be named: Suckitputin
Greenland shall be named: Greenland (suckitmagats)
Par for course
Reported an issue with the name. I know I’m shouting into the void on this but a small poke in the eye makes me feel better.
I honestly don’t give a shit, and wish less attention was given to inconsequential nonsense like this.
Trump and co are doing things far more destructive than this.
You can’t die on literally every hill. Save your energy and fight the important fights.
It’s just a very literal direct example of American imperialism.
This is a rallying call. Get pissed off about it. Shout how Trump is a fascist, how he’s ruining the country and taking everyones freedoms away. Shouting is how they’ve been winning the cultural political war. They own more media organizations and can be louder. If we say nothing, then the average person thinks what’s happening is fine. You’re not going to get people to riot if they aren’t angry.
This is also a prime example of how Google cannot be trusted, and driving a wedge between the average person and Google is a very important and necessary thing for the anti fascist cause.
It’s a direct example of distracting people from the actual consequential actions.
It’s like yall forgot the first Trump presidency. People were protesting and getting angry early on. Then they burnt out.
They didn’t have energy to fight when important things happened.
Be angry. Sure. But be smart about what you’re angry about.
This is something dumb.
Corpos gonna corp.
Unlike Google they still have a “report issue” button active.
And I will continue to use it until they take it away
They don’t have to take it away, they can just set up the backend to blackhole those requests. So presence of the report issue facility does not imply they actually will ever even see the issue.
Put all borders in Sharpie, you Apple cowards!!
Ewww. Deleting the app.
