Apple Maps now shows the Gulf of America

Why are Americans so riled up about this?
Do you guys not realize that this reaction is literally one of the reasons they do this? To be a distraction and to show their base that they made the bad people
cry about it. -
Why are Americans so riled up about this?
For me, it's the blatant racism with some fascist nationalism thrown in.

Just waiting for the TVA to prune us.

When you go to report an issue, and select “Name is wrong”, the send button never activates, whereas “something else” will.
So this is a bit of capitulation that seems to be hard coded and they just don’t want to hear about it.

You know, I had the shitty thought that at least back before chat communication, a robber baron (or it's equal kind) had to actually hire thugs and henchmen to cause local chaos. Now it's just some tech oligarch with some bots or a paid anonymous service causing disruption.
We really got fucked over on this one. I'm really not sure how America pulls itself out of this one with the state of education and political polarization. The federal part of our government definitely isn't offering up any solutions.

Come on man if we are crying racism over this is nonsense no-one will actually listen to us when we are actually facing real racism.
This is exactly what they want.

I think you're under thinking this.
The primary focus of Trump since coming to office has been securing natural resources. Greenland, Canada, Ukraine all have rich mineral deposits. Even the Panama shit is about controlling a geographic "resource"...the canal.
This rename is about making it sound like it belongs to the US. What's there a lot of here? Oil. And it sits under international waters.

You expressed it well. The best solution to our generational crisis is one that takes a generation or so to build-up (education) and that Republicans have already spent at least a generation already tearing down. We're sitting ducks.

Are you in America? I’m in Canada so I wonder if that makes a difference.
-
They don't have to take it away, they can just set up the backend to blackhole those requests. So presence of the report issue facility does not imply they actually will ever even see the issue.
-
The speed at which these people are capitulating is alarming. I mean it took them decades to even begin to do any kind of rainbow capitalism and they all ditched it like a hot potato in a split second.
-
I tried to do that, but it won't let me select the name of bodies of water.

The US already has a lot of rights to the oil there. but the rigs aren't pumping because despite the drill, baby, drill crap US oil companies already have too much supply. He wants them to drill just to look like they're doing more shit.
-
That's their plan.

I don’t think Mexico and Cuba are usually considered to be part of Central America, right?
-
I am in the US
