    The reason they do dumb shit like this is to distract from the evil shit they’re doing.

    The crazy part is it clearly still works from what people are commenting

      Believe it or not, a lot of us are able to be mad about more than one thing at a time. This one just happens to be both exceptionally stupid, exceptionally visible, and easy to resist without having to advocate for violence.

    what we have to resist here is the urge to engage with this sort of bullshit. the actual resistance is in ignoring this and focusing on what actually matters

    I’m sorry it’s shit like this that makes people not take anything you guys do or say seriously.

    Submitting a report over a name change they didn’t choose and then tagging your post with “resist” is just pathetic.

    Yes, the renaming of the Gulf is stupid. No, submitting a report that Google is going to ignore entirely isn’t “resisting” anything. It’s just a waste of your time and energy.

    I keep seeing posts taking about how Trump and the right are “flooding the zone” with bullshit to distract everyone. This is exactly what they are talking about. You gotta stop taking the bait every single fucking time.

    I don’t really understand why Google would care, tho.

    It’s not like they are bound by a public vote or something, and you show them that you still use their Product .__.

    All that will do is waste your time. Find something less petty that will make a difference,because this ain’t it.
