We live in the stupidest fucking timeline
Next up: New Mexico -> New America and New England -> New America. In fact, we should change every single name on the map to “America”.
This is just a ploy by big map to sell more maps and globes
Reminder that Google enthusiastically reached out to the IDF immediately after October 7th in hopes of selling them all sorts of AI tools; tools presumably used to kill thousands of Gazans.
Finally uninstalled Google Maps. Installed Organic Maps, instead. (f-droid).
You just couldn’t resist sucking up to Trump, could you Google? Remember when your company motto was, “don’t be evil?” That was 20 years ago.
this is so fucking embarrassing dude holy fuck please someone nuke us
I thought changing the names of things was woke
How about just Florida when the cheeto is there golfing?
We believe in systemic solutions here
There’s a got dang
in the White House!!!
Based OpenStreetMaps doesn’t do revisionism
lmao
Deeply stupid, but I genuinely think the Empire is doing the most harm to itself and its soft power by doing shit like this.
Dumbest empire in the history of the planet
They used to have to build a fleet of ships, sail for months, and then hold territory to be able to do this. Now some person behind a desk changes a parameter.
“You must change the name, big daddy said so!”
If someone says this to me in real life I will literally slap them
only permissible if they are blaming the gulf of america on the disaster a hurricane that grew in it caused
Lathe Time US media will switch between Gulf of Mexico and Gulf of America based on the context being reported. Extreme hurricanes devastate coastal cities? Those came from the Gulf of Mexico. New oil drilling platforms extract record amounts of fossil fuels? They’re located in the beautiful Gulf of America, baby
Those same platforms cause an environmental disaster? You’d better believe that’s happening in the Gulf Of Mexico!
that’s not exactly lathe, that’s just what crackers already do 24/7 about any given thing that exists
You mean the West Cuban Sea?
I can finally remove the yellow filter from my photographs of the gulf
UK version
utterly bitchmade nation
This feels like a compromise that Keir Starmer personally came up with
I welcome this change but encourage the people at Google to go further. Why, for example, not also add Gulf of Atlantic in square brackets after the regular parenthesis
Yeah that’s C*nada too
Gulf of Canada too???
Hudson Bay? NOPE! That’s MAPLE BAY to you, YANKKKOID eh!
Around here we call it Wînipekw
In the US and I get this if I’m zoomed out a bit (and it looks like this is how disputed islands are labeled also, if you check Malvinas/Falklands for example) but if I zoom in a bit it’s just “Gulf of America”
Google Maps in eSStonia:
Xi, launch the rockets. Al-mawt li-AmriKKKa
That font is awesome though
Danish Google does the same.
Death to America.
Damn, we have a comrade from one of the fascist Baltic states? Stay safe!
In GAuSStria too
