It is and always will be the Gulf of Mexico 🇲🇽 FFDJT the BLOAT 🤥 FOTUS 😤
Banzai51
Just keep calling it the Gulf of Mexico. It's still the Gulf of Mexico.

Except we're not changing the name of that body of water. Just like China renamed Tibet to China, we're still calling it Tibet.

A much better name, by all accounts.
ViridisEyoh
Does the US even own that? How does that giant sack of pig vomit get to just declare it's been renamed?
I will never refer to it as anything but the Gulf of Mexico just to spite him.
manjurul123
thanks
Sonicschilidogs
Uh, yeah, that's the gulf of Mexico, anyone who says differently is a moron.
d1d1t4t3hlulz0hl4wdy
70 million of those morons voted for the stupidest fucking moron of all, so yeah, nothing new there. Now we wait with plans ready for when civil war against fascists happen soon.
Gingrish
Watch me deadname a geographic location.
Terrillion
It's still called the Gulf of Mexico everywhere in the world, except USA.
DimwitF
Yeah no, he hasn't renamed it any more than I can rename the moon to Bubb Rubb's Woo Woo Pleasure Orb. Say your words, dickhead, the world will not comply.
dickblack12
I haven't thought about Bubb Rubb for a long time. Da whistle goes WOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOO! It's like a 'larm clock.

Next up - Trump naming national parks and warships after himself.

Trump can call it whatever he wants, the rest of the world is not gonna change our maps. That's the Gulf of Mexico.

If you can have a full tranisition team of people to go from Biden to Trump, isn't that a metafor or something....

Unpopular opinion: I'm kinda OK with the name.
I mean, I know it's just a "power move" to appeal to fragile minds, but the name is still apropos, maybe even more so. It's the largest gulf in the Americas, the name still fits. It's not like he wants to call it the Gulf of Trump or the Gulf of the United States.
What the US govt calls a body of water just doesn't matter in the grand scheme. Trump also does stuff like this to distract the public and keep people outraged about nonsense.
sphericalworld
He also renamed Denali to Mt McKinley because fuck non-white people right?
Farreg
Do you mean the Rapist Donald Trump?
StopBreathingOnMeYaIdgit
No worries. The Rio Grande is named that from the U.S. side, but is named the Rio Bravo from the Mexican side.
Let the Blowhard rename it for U.S. maps, and the rest of the world can leave it as the Gulf of Mexico.
Surprised Grump didn’t rename it the Gulf of Trump 🙄
Shaodyn
I'm not calling it the Gulf of America just because some spoiled rich brat who never grew up hates Mexico.

Right, but we're not going to be calling it the new name.
AnUnintentionallyAirborneHowlerMonkey
Deadnaming is back, baby!
SoraHjort
And Alaskans aren't calling Denali the name he also put in the same EO.
GravyEducation
Nobody will except people trying to "trigger the libs" like we care how stupid they're making themselves sound. Go for it bud. Call it whatever you want. Fly as many red (and white and swastika'd) flags you want to the sane people around you. You're only saving them the time they'll need to waste to figure out your nature
dynamojoe
I'm going to deadname the gulf of mexico just like I've deadnamed Joe Robbie Stadium for the past 30 years (it's a Miami thing). Anyone who corrects me on the point is going to be mocked.
ADeerDanceInvitationToPeace

TheWombatStrikesAgain
Just because the US called it something new, doesn't mean the rest of the world will play ball.
CelestialSea
I for one will call Trump by her preferred gender pronouns. Since she's declared that all Americans are female in an executive order I think it's only fair that she and all her supporters should get their wish.
brassmule
The Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA, was formerly the First Union Center - and thus, it will always be the FU Center in my heart. Because what's Philly without a little Brotherly Shove!

I want go mock them but all ive got is point and laugh. any other suggestions?

I deadname Candlestick Park in San Francisco too. And the Sears Tower in Chicago.

Pretty sure Candlestick Park has been closed since 2014.

I've probably only said "The Gulf of Mexico" like 15 times in my whole life. I'm going to endeavor to say it that many times per day for a while.
thisisnotaseasyasitlooks
This was my exact thought.
PartTimeHobbit
That's fair. Also as an Illinoisian, Sears Tower and Comiskey.

To this day, I've never heard anyone in person ever call it anything but the Knick.

I'm not from Illinois. Still Sears Tower.

nero4ty2
It will always be sears tower, even though the company is gone I refuse to call it willis tower, and I’m not even from here
Delathi
wachu talkin about?
IamIntoleranceIntolerant
According to the executive order about sex, all US citizens are, federally speaking, female now. Your sex is, according to the order, determined at conception. Therefore, you are all legally female.
Tengenstein
You're 1 cell at conception. You're not female. You're not even a you. His executive order makes no sense and people shouldn't pretend it does to prove he's an idiot. He's done that himself and it's inefficient
paynoattentiontousernames
That is objectively funny
screwdriverone
Ironic, because the big orange pussy just chucked a hissy fit at the bishop who asked the big strong macho man to have some compassion. What a clown faced cunt he is.
Thatannoyinggit
Hmm actually 😜 they're non binary, we have proto bits until week 6 where the male gene activates if it's present.
So all Americans are non binary now!
dickblack12
Well shoot, I had to do it the hard way.

Glory to you and your identity. I laughed pretty hard at this.
NarratesTheDarkerStory
It honestly isn't that much fun playing with this tits. I thought these would be more fun as a woman. Oh shit! Are we all lesbians now? Dope! That makes the acronym MUCh easier to remember: LA (lesbian asexual) these LA clubs are on Firetoo soon.
dickblack12
Well this turned weird in a hurry.
RonnieKielbasa
There's something sinister about that order that people aren't picking up on. The language essentially states that you are a person at conception. This is something anti-abortion advocates want.
musicaljinx
This is so important! It also defines women by their ability to reproduce, so that’s not ominous at all. /s
DeadyBearr
I mean they're going to do a total abortion ban soon. It's not a maybe.
davisboy42
I feel like "people aren't picking up on" and "people fully expected so it's not worth remarking on" are two different things. This has been the plan for decades for most of these people
RonnieKielbasa
What I mean to say is that the discussion (and the memes) regarding this order seem to be centered around gender and Republicans making a stupid mistake when the actual intent is far more nefarious.
Forensickle
Yeah, I think his point is we knew it would be nefarious before we saw it, and it is nefarious in exactly the way we expected it to be. We don't need to discuss it now, we made it clear this is exactly what would happen last November. Personally I feel the "big/small cell" is to give a loophole to screw intersex over, and let the SCOTUS define intersex legally to be whatever suits them at the tine
iUsedToBeFunThenIGotAGoodTherapist
Listen. I hate this timeline as much as anyone, but let's not FoxNews ourselves and spread misinformation. Phenotypically, genitals appear female until about 6-7 weeks, but the sperm carries the deciding chromosome. Sex is determined at fertilization. Gender, and gender identity are not. But this is legislature that they are trying to pass, and peddling misinformation won't help the public fight for their rights.
RyanSilver612
This isn't legislation they are trying to pass. This is an executive order which bypasses congress and can only be challenged by congress or SCOTUS making it null and void which they won't. Same with the EO eradicating birthright citizenship which is the real menace
AzraelEternity
Except that it has the backing of the Constitution to make it null and void. They have zero argument when it is in plain text and has been affirmed multiple times by the SCOTUS across a hundred plus years. No EO or law can get rid of that language. It would take another Constitutional Amendment to remove it, which won't happen.
RyanSilver612
Except it stays active until they do something. It's a 6-3 court with 3/6 installed by him and 2/6 he'll bent on doing whatever he wants. They can accept or deny cases they want to take on. I feel they won't touch it for 4 years and just let it ride.
AzraelEternity
It will end up being challenged in a lower court first anyway and I'd be hard pressed to say any reasonable federal judge or any appellate court (in panel or en banc) would rule that the EO is Constitutional. If SCOTUS refuses to hear it then lower court order stands so any federal judge can overrule the EO as soon as it comes in front of them and immediately suspend it.
QueenOfTheFey
No, not really. Your sex chromosomes determine what hormones are *supposed* to be released but they dont actually determine your sex, because if the male hormones aren't produced you still end up female-everyone is until forced in the womb to develop otherwise. So, while your chromosomes are determined at fertilization, your sex IS NOT. Thats why chromosomal, phenotypical +gonadal sexes can all be different.
iUsedToBeFunThenIGotAGoodTherapist
Youre absolutely correct (see: Swyer syndrome) and idk if the language they used even addresses intersex people, though sex is, by definition, determined by the gametes.
I am by no means dismissing intersex humans, nor arguing that genotype and phenotype are the same. I'm trying to make people poopooing the language used as dismissable to realise what they're trying to pass as whatever this is (I'm not American and don't entirely understand your politics or the politicians you choose)
QueenOfTheFey
I don't think Trump even knows what intersex means.
But ultimately, by the definition we use to determine sex (the phenotype) everyone is female at conception. Unless they're willing to accept all the nuance that comes with sex typing, that's the measure that must be used based on the language of previous american laws.
(I'm also not american thank god)
iUsedToBeFunThenIGotAGoodTherapist
That's where I'm unclear, though - are we using phenotype or genotype to determine sex? Because if phenotype, then, nothing, at conception. If genotype, get ready to DNA test everyone, because phenotypes don't mean anything when up to 1.7% of a 9billion person population is intersex.
nefroye
So - all people are females at conception? Gonna require a lot of biology textbook editing for that one.
Skywatcher16
found the guy who skipped highschool biology class
squelcheswetly
Yep. If your high school bio class didn’t get into how chromosomes work, you may have missed some important information.
nefroye
My guess is that people that make this assertion are referring to the period when the genital ridges exist but haven't yet started to form a penis (for males). That's roughly between 4-9 weeks *after* conception. Before that there are no reproductive organs at all; only DNA, and DNA is most assuredly not female-only.
QueenOfTheFey
Actually its because female is the default. If we took every baby and grew them in a lab and flushed the hormones (or gave hormone suppressants in the womb) to prevent testosterone acting on the baby they'd all default to being female. Everyone is female unless forced to develop otherwise. That's why we have women who find out they are actually XY fairly often.
nefroye
That's like saying if you sliced a giraffe's neck down it would be a horse. That's not how biology works. E.g. looking up the definition:
IconicM
So you're saying we're all non-binary by federal law?
nefroye
Scratching my head on your logic for that one. I said "not femaie-only". That .... doesn't equate to "all non-binary".
DarkZalgo
Yes exactly.
