I understood it ls in people are discussing if it was a nazi salute or not, maybe some of the meaning inside the word got lost in translation? I’m not a native speaker so it’s a possibility.

It wasn’t controversial. There is no controversy about it, everyone except nazis are saying that it was a nazi salute.

At this point one should ask if they are trying to make people quit meta on purpose.

Sure, but the name Gulf of Mexico, actually named Golfo de México since it was a Spaniard who named it, doesn’t come from the country of Mexico, but of the Mexica civilization (aztecs for many but called mexihkah in nahuatl), the name comes from the even older name “seno mexicano” (seno meaning gulf or bay).

If any, the other known name was Gulf of New Spain, but I suppose Turd would rather die than call it such name.

Long story short, an italian nationalist through an made up interpretation thought it was used io ancient rome, used it in a film and the fascists in italy liked it so started using it. Then the nazis copied them.

This is one of the worst things of this asshole’s term.

We’re living in a climatic emergency that is going to affect the world forever, reaching a tipping point, and this bastard and his voters are working to accelerate the proccess while the rest of the world tries to fight it. At this point, my only wish is that things like the Los Angeles fires spread in that shithole of a country until there’s nothing left.

Innocents will pay, but so are we, who couldn’t even vote there and will be “enjoying” his actions as if we did.

Actually, the Gulf of Mexico appears called like that around 1500 AD, when the United States were not even an idea of a nation. So no, it never was called like that because it was named centuries before the US existed.

It’s a very important body of water, ok?!

For people always calling the others “snowflakes” and “easily triggered”, they sure do have a thin skin.
