Yeah, I mean it's just books those nazis are burning, it doesn't hurt anything, no need to discuss it. /s
US fascists are fucking rewriting the world map and eradicating historical name, I consider it actual damage.
Actual book burning is the scientific data and articles being purged and saved (for now) by the Internet archive
To be fair, the entire history of humanity is full of exactly that. These are mostly just aimed at and recognized by the US. Same as Russia currently renaming occupied villages. Nobody else recognizes those, it’s just not that special or important at this point, with all of the other shit going on.
Ultimately, the names of places change. All the time. And will continue to change. It’s just what we do as humans. Somebody uses force and swings their dick around and locally others have to either accept it, silently or whining, or punch the fucker. Elsewhere people fight similar fights and care very little about the other dickswingers far away.
The world today has nothing to do with the world 200 years ago. GAFAM are controlling the way information is shared and it's very, they are more powerful then anything humanity has ever seen. It's Big Brother from 1984.
But unlike americans, I don't consider that we should just don't care and stop whining. I'll keep fighting fascism any way I can.
But google shows this imaginary trump name around the globe, not just in America. That is different to how google handles the fantasy names for lands China and Russia claim they are theirs..
