"The United States is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America," Mr. Trump said in a post on Truth Social Tuesday morning, claiming the U.S. doesn't expect to be "doing much business with Ontario any longer."

Lake America. Guld of America. American Ocean. Red White And Blue Sea. When will it stop.

It will end when America ends. I said this on July 19, 2016 when Trump first won the GOP nomination: "Historians will mark this day specifically as the beginning of dissolution of the united states of America."

Mark my words, Trump's death will trigger a doubling down on fascism to fill the vacuum left by his populism. They will exact revenge on anyone who celebrated Trumps death, just like after Charlie Kirk died. The concentration camps full of 'immigrants' will be vacated to make room for the political enemies of the Post-Trump-Regime.

The USA as we know it is in it's final decade. What's happening now will be taught in history books right after the chapter on Nazi Germany.

I welcome it. They have been a disease my entire life.

The thing I hate most about Americans is that I was genuinely not racist before MAGA USA.

I unfortunately am now racist against Americans and feel bad about not feeling bad about it anymore.

Like nothing against the cool one's but holy shit 9/10 of them suck ass.

edit: I don't actually hate americans... but American culture is absolute shit and Americans should all hang their heads in shame.

Told an American tourist I hope he votes this fall this morning and he got so pissed. "What the fuck is that supposed to mean" "I think you know. I just hope for the best."

I was. I was raised to hate USA people. For two decades I thought my mom was misguided. She was right. They are ALL spineless degenerates unworthy of the air they breathe.

The faster we cure their disease the better.

Radiation therapy.

He wanted to rename San Andreas Fault to Joe Bidens Fault

That one would honestly be funny, Joe was a far better watch than the movie it was named after 🤷‍♀️

The idiotic Google and some other US mapping web pages changed the name of the gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, and the world got mad at them sending emails, sending corrections, and as I understand it a lot of phone calls. So it is now only the Golf of America down in the US on those services, which is to much.

I broke and used the Google to send in a correction that day, I had been using ecosia at the time (they were still using Bing and Yahoo results at the time). Ecosia has gone down the pooper with AI crap now, which sort of defeats the purpose of what they were doing so I have switched from them to self hosting searXNG.

When the headline drops, hopefully
