Former DC Comics creator Jimmy Palmiotti mostly keeps his feed away from politics as he talks about comic books and generally is more friendly than most leftist creators in the space, but every once in a while, he pushes the button on regrettable posts as today he says “History will not be kind” to supporters of President Donald Trump over the change of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.
Let's examine that Gulf. It starts at the Tip of Florida, USA, travels through Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, and then circles from Matamoros to Cancun, Mexico. So yes, it could be rightly called the Gulf of America.
The post itself was pretty good actually. He said something hyperbolic, then said "if you disagree, that's okay. We're still alright liking other stuff that's the same." If they all posted like this, and on topics as innocuous as this, I think the industry would be doing better.
He didn't change it to the Gulf of the United States. It's the Gulf of America and Mexico is part of North America.
That’s a great point. At first I didn’t care. But this makes so much more sense.

I’m not asking for kindness
