I can't be the only one who feels like this is the absolute lowest priority of dumb shit to resist the regime over. It's just filler. Another thing he is doing to flood the zone. But one that really doesn't hurt anything. It's a distraction. Ignore it and focus on the actual damage he is doing.

    I get what you're saying but, as someone observing from outside, stuff like this is all I can do to resist.

    As someone from the outside, you wouldn't even see the US specific naming. If complaining in a bug report about the fact and threatening to abandon the platform in favour of Linux is all you can do, man, don't bother xD.

    Yeah, I mean it's just books those nazis are burning, it doesn't hurt anything, no need to discuss it. /s

    US fascists are fucking rewriting the world map and eradicating historical name, I consider it actual damage.

    To be fair, the entire history of humanity is full of exactly that. These are mostly just aimed at and recognized by the US. Same as Russia currently renaming occupied villages. Nobody else recognizes those, it’s just not that special or important at this point, with all of the other shit going on.

    Ultimately, the names of places change. All the time. And will continue to change. It’s just what we do as humans. Somebody uses force and swings their dick around and locally others have to either accept it, silently or whining, or punch the fucker. Elsewhere people fight similar fights and care very little about the other dickswingers far away.

    But google shows this imaginary trump name around the globe, not just in America. That is different to how google handles the fantasy names for lands China and Russia claim they are theirs..

    The world today has nothing to do with the world 200 years ago. GAFAM are controlling the way information is shared and it's very, they are more powerful then anything humanity has ever seen. It's Big Brother from 1984.

    But unlike americans, I don't consider that we should just don't care and stop whining. I'll keep fighting fascism any way I can.

    The administration seems weak to business interest and with Apple having over a trillion dollar market value…customers being mad at them could actually somehow trickle back to Trump admin? It’s a drop in the ocean, I know. Just trying to look at it optimistically
