All I'm seeing is people basically make the argument "The Jews are responsible for Nazi Germany!" Like, I'm one of the people the regime wants to "eradicate from public life. No exceptions" and I did my damnedest to support Harris, tried to warn everyone, did my best, and now all I hear is how it's my fault I did this. It's victim blaming by garbage people who I used to really give a fuck about. What even is the point anymore? At least the suffering I'll go through won't just be me alone. I can die knowing the suffering is coming for them and their families too. They certainly deserve it as much as I do.

Yep, it was about the north fighting for their right not NOT participate in slavery, as the south tried to force slavery upon them (fugitive slave act), then seceded from the US and attacked it.

It was the war of southern aggression.

The US keeps it to flex on all the other American countries. It's a display of dominance.

Google is one of many propaganda arms of the US govt. I highly doubt they'd comply with that as it doesn't fit in with their political agenda.

Because Google is actuvely pushing US government agenda into Canada. It should be considered an extension of the US government as far as other countries are concerned, but it's a corporation so nobody cares. Google WILL assist in taking Canada the best they can, so I guess Canada can just enjoy it or whatever instead of doing something about it.

When I was young and dealing with Win 98 and XP before all the service packs updates had like 10% chance of bricking the OS and would give me anxiety so I'd avoid them. Even with Windows 7 had an update that made explorer.exe refuse to start. It hasn't happened in many years, maybe they got their shit together but I still have anxiety about updates even though I'm savvy enough to fix issues now. Just because I can doesn't mean I wanna.

This is great. Maybe officials from all over will rename places had make google add all the different names as per their policy. Imagine taking an interstate road trip and having place names keep changing on google maps as you cross state lines.
