Trump federally renames Alaska's Mt. Denali to mount mckinley, despite the objections from everyone who actually lives there (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Apologies for more trump stuff on your feed, this hurt me personally.

I was born in Alaska, and I have never heard a single person there call it mckinley, despite the vast majority of my time there having been before it was "officially" recognized as Denali.

Now this rat bastard wants to change it, despite people calling it Denali long before any name was written down for the mountain. His greed is serving to lessen our culture in the popular eye.

P.S.

I know that the federal name isn't literally "the official name", but I'd be surprised if this doesn't cause a lot of people outside the state to start calling it that.

mckinley is lowercase on purpose

Edit: I want to mention that this is not entirely serious, as can be seen in me calling him a 'rat bastard'. This is obviously false, as he grew up in a loving rat family.

ARGH

The guy even makes the nouveau riche embarrassed with his desperate insecurity.
