Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

How dumb. Seriously how fucking dumb do you have to be to go along with something that is so juvenile and stupid. Everything about it is dumb.
They've done this for every disputed area around the world for a long time. Depending on where you're logging in from you'll see a different locale.
I see "Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)" in Canada which is fucking stupid. Nobody outside of the US recognises "Gulf of America"
Just checked, same in Norway. Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)
Will they change Ukraine to Russia?
Prove that
Another user just replied to me confirming they show a hybrid label for it. It's also kind of general knowledge for anyone who has consumed their Maps API. Lmk if you need links.
