I’m very disappointed in Antarctica for their narrow minded views on the world.

To be fair, I don't think the penguins recognize anyone's sovereignty.

[-] Whelks_chance@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

Not even the emperor penguins?

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 10 points 5 days ago

Nope. Emperor penguins think all land belongs to them.

ESPECIALLY the Emperor Penguins.

I wish we could be more like penguins, and recognize no borders

GWAR also makes their home base in Antarctica. They did a live show from there once.

It's been the biggest supporter of Israel from the beginning. The US support is just a distraction from where the true power comes from

(Edit: Sorry! I had put down my phone between reading what was above and this comment. I though it said "I've been the biggest supporter...")

~~Their militias who used terrorism and violence to take land, which then formed into the IDF?~~

~~I have to ask, why have you supported them "from the beginning" (whatever that means)? ~~

[-] knowone@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

No worries! I can totally see how it could be easily misread as "I've" and that would have made what I said really not good. I just saw people were downvoting me too so I thought it was multiple people thinking I wasn't joking

antarctica has militias??????

[-] knowone@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

Have people...actually thought I was being serious?

[-] guy@piefed.social 5 points 6 days ago

Yeah I get that the US won't recognise Palestine, but what's Antarctica's excuse?!

[-] DirigibleProtein@aussie.zone 4 points 6 days ago

Antarctica isn’t a sovereign country. Perhaps the map should indicate the slices of Antarctica that belong to countries that were included.

I am aware that neither the penguins nor the scientists residing in Antarctica have declared sovereignty.. :)
