Some things are impossible to explain
A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".
I'm interested in understanding why you feel like this is racist.
Continental drift in its current form was theorised by Alfred Wegener. Wegener was a citizen of the German empire. Empires were invented by Rome. Rome shares two letters with Race. Race is a social construct that allows for racism. Therefore all Mexicans who have allowed their border to continentally drift away from Merica are racist.
That's my best guess, anyway
Ah, I didn't know we were using the "why fire trucks are red" argument. I see now why it's racist
They’s borderline
