President George W. Bush Street in Tbilisi, Georgia
(hexbear.net)
I remember visiting Tbilisi in the early 2010s as a volunteer English teacher and being greeted with this stupid sign as we left the airport.
What other out of place, inappropriate, boot-licking or jusr plain dumb American or other Anglo landmarks come to mind for you?
[especially when they replace the much cooler names given by the indigenous/native peoples of the area]
I could mention Ukrainas plass in Oslo, where the Russian embassy is, however Ukraine isn't exactly Anglo or "American".
The only "American" place name in Norway that I'm familiar with is Brooklyn Square in the village of Vanse in Agder County... But I honestly cannot bring myself to be particularly upset about this Woop Woop-ass village having a 1950s Americana-themed street in order to commemorate the area's history of sending migrant workers to the US East Coast. Although all forms of "Americophilia" should be viewed critically, this specific example I really just find kind of charming and largely benign. Like if I were General Secretary, I would certainly take drastic and in all likelihood unpopular measures to end Seppolandic cultural imperialism in Norway and English-Norwegian diglossia — but I would not touch Brooklyn Square.
