Is this what small government looks like? I thought these guys were all about reducing regulations and allowing businesses to do as they please, free from government restrictions.

As a Trans person I feel soooo bad /s
Whoever obeys Nazis, I will boycott your platform. Plain and simple.
Google also didn't. Oof.
Cause most google users aren't americans and the mental illness of a few sex criminals would disrupt their service.
It doesn’t matter who their customers are, Google is a us based company.
However, hopefully they are able to depose, delay, deny this ridiculousness
Executive orders mean shit, show me all the freedom fries in american stores.

Fuck, I honestly thought this was the Onion. Somebody get me out of this timeline. I withdraw consent for this simulation!
Use "Oblast" instead of state for every single red shithole.
This should include the beautiful Oblast of New America if we are anyway in the process of renaming things.

Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, but who even has the legal right to rename the gulf? It doesn't belong to USA, right? So we can't just rename it, right? If we did, everybody else in the world would keep calling it The Gulf of Mexico, right?

Most countries don't call it "The Gulf of Mexico". For example in my country it's "Mexický záliv".
Did you know that Confucius was one of the rudest people to ever live? He never said "thank you" or "please" in his entire life.
Point is this is just Golf of Mexico in another language. Maybe not 100% literal, but it associates the site with the country Mexico, not America (which Mexico is a part of, but I'm not sure MAGAts understand or want to understand the nuance).
The point is that the Czech name for the gulf has nothing to do with how Americans are calling it, it's not even the same language. Why should be care Trump calls it different? He's not our president, you know.

Every sovereign state can publish maps require everyone to use it as reference for further publication in its own territory. Hence you'll see different maps on Google for different regions. There's a UN committee to coordinate these and also to publish international water area names.
Pretty sure it's called "Gulf of How The Fuck Does This Lower Grocery Prices"

Fuck Gizmodo, making trans insults into a joke with that headline.
I'm trans myself and I kinda like it, flip the script, use the Right's own spells and logic against them! Make THEM the libs who get owned.
Yeah? I can see that... thanks
Personally lately I've been posting explanations of the science of gender, intersexed people, gender dysphoria, and studies back them up to transphobes and following them up with a "Facts don't care about your feelings!"
