When Google announced it was complying with US President Donald Trump’s executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, many Mexicans responded with a laugh and a long, exhausted sigh.

They’d be busy til the end of time with reactionary legislation. People have to understand that attack is needed. We can’t just make an amendment to prevent us from renaming anything ever again (unless reverting to a traditional native name) we must prevent this from happening in the first place.
