Rename Lake Michigan to Lake Canada

  (+5, -2)
(+5, -2)
 

Donald Trump has apparently just signed an executive order renaming Lake Ontario to lake America, apparently in retribution for a trade deal falling through. (see link)

I think Carney's response missed a trick. I think it's about time world leaders responded to Trump's pettiness in kind. To my mind the optimum response is to rename another great lake which doesn't even border Canada to Lake Canada.

Look at his last post. Joyously mocking of the death of American soldiers. Absolutely disgusting. [doctorremulac3, Aug 28 2026, last modified Aug 29 2026]

       Don't wrestle with a pig. You'll get dirty as will the pig, but the pig likes it.   

       Canada is a formidable opponent and won't back down or give in to American trying to bully them. They're already making overtures towards EU membership and every country likes and respects Carney in direct proportion to the international detestation of Trumpstein, who has brought America into total ridicule and disrespect.

       When Trump's out of office gonna be interesting to see what a lot of people do with their now empty, meaningless lives.

       I dunno, xenzag. I take the point, but it seems that Trump is actually extremely thin-skinned. I think this would rile him up something chronic.   

       Doc, I'm lucky in not being much affected by Trump's actions, and don't concern myself with them overmuch. But I don't feel like he, or his behaviour should be considered beyond reproach or undiscussable. After all, I don't feel that about other politicians.

       When the Trump thing comes up here with Xenzag, it's not a discussion, it's just screeching insults and xenophobic anti American hate rants.   

       Case in point, I had put up a post of mine from 6 years ago regarding surveillance cameras that are in the news now. Was a interesting discussion with most of the people, but Xenzag took it to the one and only thing we're ever supposed to talk about, his obsession with Donald Trump and how much he despises Americans. He even talked about how happy he was Americans died in the Vietnam War, trying to free the people from the genocide of people like Pol Pot, the Khmere Rouge with their piles of skulls and the hundreds of thousands who perished when the Communists moved in after America's withdrawal.   

       There are great places to discuss politics, the rules specify this isn't one of them. It's gonna happen unfortunately but it's nice when we can just leave each other alone and have fun with interesting ideas.

       Well okay - but you've got to admit if it happened this idea would be really funny.
Loris, Aug 29 2026
  

       Yes, in normal circumstances, okay, and I might even agree with you, but here it triggers the Xenzag xenophobic hate rants. And if my beloved country and my people get insulted I can't respond in kind and insult that person's country because I won't engage in hating an entire country and its people, not going to do it. It's the textbook definition of disgusting and evil to me. I will however insult him back which has made him threaten to leave the HB, what? A dozen times now? Dishes it out but can't take it. Bullies are always cowards. I live in a lovely community now, but I grew up in the ghetto, I know the type. Stand up to 'em one on one and they always show what pussies they really are. Deep down they're weak little bitches, that's why they became bullies.   

       Anyway, how about this?   

       (Grok) List some sites people can talk about how much they hate donald trump   

       Thought for 12s   

       People commonly discuss strong criticism of Donald Trump on these platforms and communities:Redditr/antitrump r/AntiTrumpAlliance r/FuckDonaldTrump r/TrumpHate r/politics (broader political discussion that frequently includes criticism)   

       Facebook groups“We hate donald trump” “Anti-Trump Humor Haven” “Republicans Against Donald Trump”   

       Dedicated forumsDemocratic Underground (democraticunderground.com), including sections like “Latest Trump BS”   

       X (Twitter)Various public communities and accounts dedicated to opposing Trump, plus general political discussion.   

       These are user-driven spaces. Tone and rules vary by community—some allow raw venting while others moderate more strictly. General social media (X, Facebook, etc.) also hosts a lot of this conversation outside dedicated groups.

       The only person whom the mentioning of Trumpstein here triggers is you. You're like a jack-in-a-box that comes out shouting at full volume then blames everyone else (actually only me) on your verbal volcanoes.   

       Meanwhile, he's just renamed Canada Geese as Donald Ducks. hahaha. [link] - it's brilliant.

       Gonna take your advice on this one.
doctorremulac3, Aug 29 2026
  

       Fun fact: Ontario was the lake name before the United States, Canada or the province existed. It's no more Canadian a name than it is American or Mexican for that matter.
