Majestic. #DenaliForever
Alaskans will never revert to calling it Mt. McKinley. #DenaliForever

WTF is this? #DenaliForever
I feel so dumb for adding value to Google maps for years, adding reviews & photos. It's a small thing but I'll start deleting my 480 reviews with 568k views, 1,618 photos w 68M views, all since 2011
As long as I'm breathing, I'll never call it that

Broad, enormous mount, Denali, covered in brilliant snow with spindly black spruce trees in the foreground. Magical aurora borealis is overhead, streaking down from the sky. Just above Denali the aurora is verdant green, with magenta above that, streaked with hints of yellow.

In 1975, the name #Denali was adopted by the people of Alaska for this majesticmountain. It will always be Denali.
States rights, yeah...
Denali Forever!

When I heard the news story, they said they were going to do it when some governmental agency (a "Map Department"?) made it official. I don't remember exactly what agency it was.

Not all that well. A friend who spends half a year in Alaska & half down here in Washington, called me today to catch up. As we hung up after an hour of both of us yelling about #TraitorTrump & #TrumpsTraitors & the insanity they have wrought, she said as we hung up, "Buddhist It"
#DenaliForever
Mt McKinley was named by a prospector (official 1917) who saw it CENTURIES after the natives in Alaska saw it & NAMED IT DENALI. #RacistTrump was pissed that President Obama did as Alaska & Alaskan Natives asked & returned their name to their mountain. IT WAS & ALWAYS WILL BE DENALI!
#DenaliForever
@googlesearch.bsky.social is kowtowing to #FascistTrump, who is ignoring the wishes of Alaska & Alaskan Natives who honor the name given to Denali CENTURIES AGO instead of the ridiculous name "honoring" a POTUS who never saw Alaska OR Denali because Pres. Obama did as Alaska asked.
#DenaliForever
@googlesearch.bsky.social Should listen to the State of Alaska & Alaskan Natives & use the name they gave the Alaskan mountain CENTURIES AGO, not the name our racist nation gave it in 1917 & again last week. #TraitorTrump is being #RacistTrump. Google is kowtowing to #FascistTrump
#DenaliForever
He also changed the name of Denali which was given to the Alaskan mountain CENTURIES AGO. Our racist nation changed it to honor a white man in 1917. President Obama listened to the State of Alaska & Alaskan Natives who wanted their mountain honored. #RacistTrump couldn't stand that!
