      Yeah!! Spend your money on a completely pointless lawsuit!! Fill some lawyers pockets instead of helping your citizens!!

      Remember: the most important thing to professional politicians is optics! It's what fools the morons into thinking you are doing something good!

          It’s day 25. So Trump broke his campaign pledge to be dictator “only” on day one.

              I'm sorry you're not ready to accept that you're stuck on one word, ignoring the rest of the sentence. Just because you claim you addressed it, doesn't mean you really did.

              You're asking why did I point that? Welp, because you lied by ommission.

                  I literally addressed it. I quoted me addressing it. And now you're accusing me of lying? Are you just a troll?

                    Everyone needs to get used to ignoring this bullshit. The Gulf of America thing isn't important. It doesn't effect anyone, and there's far too many posts about it when there are real things to pay attention to. This is purely a distraction. Stop giving it attention.

                      Bro, are you ok? "US dictayorship"? Trump was elected by the majority of Americans. How is Trump destroying YOUR planet? By changing the name of the gulf? Is this the biggest problem "your" planet has?

                          Dude, you are taking words out of context, you aren't addressing anything. You read the word "dictator", saw red in front of your eyes and ran with it.

                            Inside Mexico they should name it whatever the Mexico calls it. Outside Mexico it should be called however it is called in the respective country.

                            But again, Google is based in the US, all their decisions are made there.

                                Don't even bother with a pointless lawsuit. Simply stop using Google.

                                Nah, they're a megacorp, you gotta hurt them where it counts - in their bottom line. Make them use their super expensive lawyers to defend this shit. Honestly more people/entities should do this. Even pro se, these corporate lawyers cost these companies literally hundreds of thousands of dollars to go into court. Just imagine how much you could cost them if everyone started suing them for any little thing. Even a response to a lawsuit requires a lawyer, which requires time and effort.

                                Its literally the only thing they care about - money. Strongly worded letters and protests aren't enough. They can ignore those.

                                      For sure. It's just that this isn't the part that matter. This is part of the enabling. If you're paying attention here you don't see the other thing over there. It's slight of hand. You only have so much attention, and it's better spent where it actually has an effect. This will be reversed with the next president.

                                          Nah. I'll start boycotting google when there are useful alternatives. Amazon, facebook, reddit - no problem.

                                          Google search - fine, I can get by with DDG or Yandex. Gmail - sure, whatever. Maps? Organic Maps (and other openstreetmaps front-ends) works alright for getting your bearings, but it's a far cry from useful for finding businesses, and terrible for navigation. Waze used to be the only viable alternative, but ever since Google bought them, it's hard to justify a full boycott without massively inconveniencing myself.

                                          Same for meta as a whole. Facebook and Instagram, sure, no need. But living without whatsapp is simply impossible in some countries, where it's the de-facto standard for communication, and even used as the only means of contact with government agencies.
