Amid Other Recent Pro-Trump Moves, Google Maps Makes “Gulf of America” Name Change Official.

The cowards removed the ability to recommend an improvement to the map of you click on it.

I declare that I have the power to name things to whatever I want to and I'm gonna rename "The White House" to "The Angry White's House"

So can a President also change street names?
Knowing how little Trump likes California, he might change names like Hollywood Boulevard, to Asshole Boulevard, Castro Street to Pussy Street.
How the fuck can a President decide on names at all? Is it written somewhere in law or the constitution that he has authority for that?
Can he also rename planets like Mercury to Melania, just because he thinks it's cool?

I know the law isn't intended for a toddler to become president, but really? The president can decide arbitrary shit willy-nilly? that's a recipe for an authoritarian president to abuse it, on top of the political system not being very democratic!! It's like adding toxic to poisonous.

I've been warning against American democracy being dysfunctional for 2 decades now (and UK), and nothing has been done, Americans must have been aware of this for a long time, and yet they've done nothing. Those that claim the American people do not deserve the current administration are wrong IMO, they've accepted this could happen election after election and done NOTHING!!

Bing did the same thing.

Apple Maps is also now calling it "Gulf of America"

Those fuckers even changed it for Canadian customers.

No it's not

Not wanting to defend google or any of the techbro vehicles, but it’s literally obeying the law in this case Nevermind, I was wrong about the binding quality of an EO on the general public.

This is now on other countries to step up and enforce their nomenclature in accordance with historical use, in order to play this game and make these companies obey domestic requirements.

Imagine living in a year 2025 where some old soggy dipshit indulges in what is effectively larping as an imperialist. Remember those Mujahideen/freedom fighters/terrorists who opposed ‘american imperialism’? Guess they will pull a smug face now.
