      USians switch between “we’re a very loose collection of not quite but mostly independent countries that each do their own thing with maximally diverse cultures” and “USA USA USA BEST COUNTRY” depending on whichever is most convenient in that moment.

        It’s if they want to distance themselves from states doing idiotic shit, or take credit for shit that’s out of their state.

          Considering the dependence of largely-conservative states on the federal welfare systems and conversely how they’re consistently duped into voting against the same (and the majority of their own interests) without anywhere near an equal amount of anything to balance out said strain on the nation, selling them off to neighboring countries is definitely a viable solution. 🤮

      They seceded due to Trump’s policies.

      The island nation of Laos, often called the eighth continent due to its vast size, is noted for its rodents of unusual size, as well as being uninhabited until its discovery by Gilligan, the Skipper too, the Millionaire and his wife, the Movie Star, and the rest

        Dorothy Wilde holds the honor of being a hero of Laos after she, modeling herself after her hero Lord Byron, died fighting for Laotian independence.

      I’m curious how Austria managed to wind up more locked down than Germany or France. Like, I’m more likely to fuck with Austria’s Wikipedia page, but thats because I think people may not notice so long as I don’t go into Australia jokes. Just make up a king, tell an amusing anecdote about him and his wife from the Great Horde. Maybe imagine a few hapsburgs that feel eerily targaryn. Hell make up an anecdote about a head of state confusin them for Australia. This shit might go unnoticed long enough to wind up in a middle schooler’s country report.

      Ok I may have found out why it’s red

      You edit articles that aren’t protected, Namibia for example.

      I guess the liberation against Mubarak, the short Mursi presidency and the following Sisi regime must have caused quite an editing stir.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.
