Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has suggested North America could be renamed ‘Mexican America’ in response to Donald Trump’s pledge to rename the Gulf of Mexico the ‘Gulf of America’. Sheinbaum used a map from 1607 to demonstrate an early portrayal of North America, including the United States. The comments came after Trump talked about a broad expansionist agenda that could include taking control of the Panama canal, Greenland and Canada.
One time I heard a Canadian newscaster call the US “the lower provinces” lol. Seems like it must be a common term if they used it so casually on the news.
So glad we now live on an episode of the Jerry Springer show, so much better than the last 4 years…
But… but… The democrats and genocide though!
The Democrats did enable genocide though.
Doesn’t mean Trump was going to be any better.
While I respect what you are saying, now was not the time for people to be spouting all of that when a literal orange idiot, who everybody knows has a rabid fan base cult that would vote for him even if he shit and pissed on them, was running. It was just stupid. If Kamala had won, then immediately on inauguration day, we could all start voicing our opinions just as loudly as those people were doing before a major election. We would’ve had a whole 4 years to get together to do this to drive the point home further.
But no. We were too busy trying to get people to not vote at all, or to vote third party. This is the direct result of that.
Do I think Democrats are great? No, not really, especially now. It would have been a hell of a lot better than this god damn shit though.
Oh well. Too late now.
*EDIT
To add to the void, this is one of the major reason I feel like actual progress isn’t made. We have way too many people/groups vying for one thing or the other instead of banding together and tackling one major issue at a time. It’s hard to get things done when every group only cares about THEIR specific issue.
Greenland? poor guys taking care of their ice lifes having to deal with insane americans
To be fair, Mexico is run by a bunch of drug cartels.
Could one call Healthcare Orgs Drug Cartels as well?
No. They simply decline legit claims, easy and “bloodless”.
If you legitimately can’t tell the difference between the two, I don’t think anyone can help you ever understand.
You’re right. Cartels forceibly take “protection” money from you and leave you alone. If you can’t pay, they might kill you.
US Healthcare wont FORCE you to pay them. But even if you do, you still might die because whatever you’re dying from isn’t covered. Much less blood on their hands.
And even though they technically don’t FORCE you, like you said, American society does everything within its power to convince you that you really, REALLY should
Its okay having your head up the US Exceptionalism Arse. I was just doing a funny re-whataboutism.
Unlike our “Free” (trademark) beautiful United States, in which we just wage war to make profit
I know it’s popular to whataboutism this shit, but neither is right.
Relevance?
When is a violent bunch of psychopaths at your doorsteps NOT relevant?
Climate change is rather important too but I wouldn’t bring it up when asked about my opinion on ice cream.
