Chile is further away. Didn't luck out I guess.

Nobody should have control over land on the other side of the planet.
It literally has nothing to do with that. It's land off the coast of Argentina. They should be allowed to use it and not have British oil drilling and navy ships patrolling around it.
How long before the US decides to coup Argentina and sets up some spy base or black site on the islands, if they don't have one already?
That it's literally a foreign government's outpost on an island directly off the coast of Argentina, which Argentina could benefit from (and Argentina isn't as rich as Britain).
What claim do a bunch of British people who get their British people food shipped half way around the world have? They don't even import food from Argentina as far as I know.
Apparently they even has a ship they sail around there. Woo hoo massively polluting military industrial complex!
how is it fair and square they literally fought a war over it, to prevent argentina from getting to use it
I mean it might be because it's right there
Just transferred my domain to Alibaba Cloud 😎

You can transfer domain names to other registrars. I think you can just transfer them before they go to squarespace.
They did more than saying "nothing we can do about it", they are actively making statements unequivocally supporting the car companies' side using the car companies' own rhetoric. This feels like a case of "Biden admin acts 'progressive' when it's symbolic and as tools of the capitalist class when it matters"
Aren't there right-wing political organizations in Uganda supported by the US?
Another part later in the article:
“Making an exception for you will only teach [our] youth that they do not have to abide by the rules,” [Shasta District Fair Chief Executive Melanie] Silva wrote back to (the girl or her mother) Long in an email reviewed by The Times dated June 28, 2022. “Also, in this era of social media this has been a negative experience for the fairgrounds as this has been all over Facebook and Instagram.”
Not like those people have any more claim to the islands than anyone else. Who cares that they were uninhabited beforehand or whatever. The here and now is that Britain is drilling for resources there.
The UK is 11th in terms of median wealth, Argentina is 119th. Should oil money off the coast of Argentina benefit Argentinians, or British people?
