    Pedantry over the use of the word “the” is the most bullshit, liberal shit I think I’ve seen all week. Are you being serious? We need to start referring to this country as United States because it doesn’t belong to anyone, right? Should we ditch that old method of referring to the Puerto Rico which implied it was independent? What use is the word ‘the’ if English articles are policed in the manner you’re trying to do?

        Oh got it, you aren’t a serious person. That’s good to know. I have a bachelor’s degree in computer science, but whatever. Why don’t you enlighten me then?

          I’m not your dad or your teacher. Enlighten yourself. You can look this up and learn all about why nobody outside of Russian nationalists say “the Ukraine” anymore.
