Looks like that was made just weeks after Barbarossa began. Before that, in the early phases of the war, a lot of people in the Allies were categorizing the USSR as pro-Axis, to the extent of considering helping out Finland against them during the Winter War. The "special case" on that map is probably because, from the writer's perspective, the situation had changed so fast there that they didn't know what the gently caress to categorize the Soviets as.

Hawaii has like a ten day reserve of oil at any given point, and probably similar quantities of other necessities, so yeah it gets a lot of traffic just to keep it running. I suppose that's probably also why Anchorage looks to get a way disproportionate amount of traffic as well?

I'm a little surprised how dark Argentina is outside of Buenos Aires; same with Chile. Do those countries just have very concentrated population centers with not much between them (like the US mountain west), or is that a reflection of rural poverty?

Koramei posted:How did this slip past a whole page without comment?! What the hell dude, yes there's something wrong with people self identifying with incredibly derogatory terms, are you kidding? Unless I missed the memo those terms aren't inherently derogatory like n----r is, they're just dated. Yes, it would probably be uncool if you went around talking about "those drat Negroes" but given that the terms still exist in the names of old institutions -- the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the United Negro College Fund -- and no one's raring to change those, it's pretty clear that they're not derogatory in and of themselves.
