“[T]he ‘Gulf of America’ thing is tribal, narcissistic nonsense from people who demand you beclown yourself to fit in. It is Mean Girls. It is an act of ritualistic de-shaming where if everyone acts like a fool, then no one is a fool, and no one has shame or can be shamed. ‘Gulf of Mexico’ is a perfectly good 500-year-old name that no one thought needed changing until Trump did it, and now it is just a way to separate tribes, and people act like they had their first real orgasm when they hear it said. It is, for MAGA, what pronouns and Latinx are to progressives — a tribal identifier and a weapon with which to bully others.” (02/14/25)
