      To be clear, they’ve changed names in line with official government policy before, not just for Trump’s admin.

        Yeah but that makes too much sense for emotional & reactional people that don’t rely on logic

          They are a private organization with the right to say “lol that’s nice”, and leave it as the gulf of mexico. Executive orders direct government policy.

          I get what you’re saying, but the renaming itself is entirely an act of emotion and reaction, with no trace of logic, too. It’s pretty much all we should expect to see from anyone for a while.

      And it will undoubtedly pay off for them. This is the first brazenly tech oligarchy-driven administration.

      Remember who was at Trump’s inauguration? Musk, obviously, but also:

      • Tim Cook, CEO of Apple
      • Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon
      • Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta
      • Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet

      .
      Trump, a populist president, is flanked by tech billionaires at his inauguration

      Tim Apple isn’t your friend, either. No oligarch is.

        I was hoping Apple wouldn’t be there considering Tim is openly gay

          Openly gay, but secretly a billionaire.

          He donated to Trump right from his pockets. He’s a traitor.

        It’s not coming to an end as in no longer existing, but it absolutely is as a world power. Maybe it will be for the better in the long run.
