Malle_YenoIs California a country?
Itās naive to think everything is binary. Parts of the US are in it and parts are not.
baguetteItās bigger than many countries and more populous than many countries. And itās in WHO.
Unnecessarily pedantic to exclude it.
Puerto Rico isnāt a country, yet it is green on this map.
Greenland isnāt a country, yet it is shaded a color.
The purpose of a map is to convey geographic information. What you seem to be looking for is a dictionary.
Yes, please do accept your own conflicting examples.
This was never a serious debate. I was meming about your wording (hence my ālolā) and you got offended. Thereās much more nuance here, as everyone knows.
PR is still an unincorporated territory in comparison to California, and was invited to join on their own. But you can continue this debate with someone else, if you want, that was never my intent.
Greenland is a country. Itās a country thatās part of Denmark.
Countries can in fact be part of other countries. Itās allowed.
Firstly no it isnāt, they have an independent prime minister, and secondly that isnāt the definition of a country anyway.
Itās an independent self-governing region which Denmark provides for. Itās like 4 seconds to Google this.
OpenStarsNot ever. Even when every male under the age of 50 is conscripted into one of Trumpās pointless wars against former allies, Democrats wonāt do shit because resistance is illegal and they have an unshakably legalist worldview. Calexit was already a complete joke before their government started executing their own citizens in broad daylight with no repercussion - legal or otherwise.
Americans: stop with the escapist fantasies and start finding actual ways to fight back because your elected representatives arenāt going to do it for you.
Tbf, (1) Republicans were the same as well, prior to Trump, so this was not a R vs. D issue so much as an anti-establishment vs. establishment one; and (2) the USA has literal actual nukes, making anarchism far less attractive in practice than it might naively sound in theory. Also, (3) people are just as uneducated this year compared to roughly one year ago, i.e. vulnerable AF, and (4) Mask owns everything now, so having to return to an era where not only do you lack satellites but this time the other side does have them, plus dronesā¦ is not a tiny wrinkle in an otherwise unstoppable plan. Itās more like an unedumacashiated rabble fighting with sticks and stones vs. computers with actual nukes. The uprising in Planet of the Apes was the real fantasy, whereas irl they would have zero chance, given todayās technology.
Also note that wherever you are in the world, this is coming for you too, in some form or another. e.g. Brexit happened long before Trump was elected the second time (the first being more or less an accident?). Even Greenland has elements of people within it who for some reason seem to welcome the idea of becoming part of the USA. This is not a uniquely American phenomena: we only thought that WWII won against fascism, but in the end fascism may win out overall, world-wide.
And until we figure out what the real enemy is, why trade off Trump for e.g. Musk to come save us? The idea that this hole that the USA has dug itself into is somehow āfixableā might be the real escapist fantasy, and all the more so when you consider the child-like populace.
Because Milei is an idiot Trump ally with similar beliefs and he is strongly against covid lockdowns and believes they were ācrimes against humanityā.
Milei is a criminal Trump ally
Idiot is lightyears behind these scum.
SusagaTo give a bit more context, the usa has been influencing elections in latin america and there has been a trend in the last 10 years of trump-like leaders in the far right around here. Argentina has elected one of them in the last elections, and heās replicating the trump agenda and extending his power to the region, while destroying the internal economy
In case you want to dive into it, this may be a good starting point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_wave
I hadnāt heard but am not surprised Milei is following suit.
USA, always number-one-ing idiocy
mercTaiwan is presumably red because if Taiwan was green China would be red. So, the WHO just sighs and goes āok, Taiwan, would you mind accepting āobserver statusā or something?ā, and Taiwanās rep just sighs too and says, āsure, we get it.ā
Taiwan isnāt member of the UN, and thus aināt member of the WHO either.
Countries using an electoral-college system to elect an executive leader in national popular elections:
USA
Nigeria
Wow the same map as āCountries with claimed royalty that will scam you out of money with no repercussionsā
Can someone be an Emporer without also being a King/Queen?
I Cast FistEmperor Dom Pedro II of Brazil comes to mind. Brazil immediately became an empire after it got its independence (thanks to the then Portuguese prince Dom Pedro I, who quit the job to become king of Portugal when the chance showed up)
Interesting. I kind of assumed that Emporer was an additional title where one ruled over their kingdom (where they were king) and other states.
Nah, for example the OG Emperors, the Roman Emperors, had a cultural prohibition against kings so they used the title Imperator.
Honestly thereās a case to be made that a real Emperor wouldnāt have a kingdom title.
Man, Nigeria better be careful.
abbiistabbiiAh yeah, Argentina, a country that is known for itās beef production and itās āLibertarianā President known for silencing dissent. Iām sure a new plague wonāt come out from Argentina in regards to beef or beef products. No siree. Wonāt happen.
SpiceDealerDonāt let the boys over at .ml and hexbear hear you say that.
muusemuuseYou guys just donāt get it because your health care system spends money on sick people. Here, we cash in on sick people, so itās only good business to make more of them.
I hate my country.
What is this new Zealand you speak of? Some sort of mythical place?
