I kind of get the whole 'Gulf of America’s, at least conceptionally, America is the continent yada yada yada, it’s fine, it’s silly but fine.

But the Mount McKinley stuff is really baffling to me. Afaik McKinley never even visited Alaska during his presidency, alaskans themselves tried to change the name since at least the 1980s and the only thing that stood in the way was Ohio, as McKinleys home state, blocking the name change, until in 2015 they eventually relented and the name was changed back to its original indigenous name.

Why would they change it arbitrarily again? I don’t understand? Is it just racism and it by chance happened during Obama’s presidency?

Come on, just a little ethnic cleansing will solve the conflict, can’t you see?

Thanks for the perspective!
