I do believe there is a sub on that other site called Maps without New Zealand..

This is a common misconception, this circle is actually a straight line around the globe and the "inside" includes Antarctica and new Zealand. And because there's a race of fully sentient crab people living under the kiwis and totaling 800 billion in number, the map is correct.

Weird that they vote though

Those crabs fought hard for their freedom to vote. We killed soo many of them through our backwards beliefs that now the war is over we are one of the biggest butter exporters in the world. We can only hope we have learned more than just how to use a skillet.

Dude they waddle sideways in to the voting booth and unanimously vote for can of creamed crab for overlord of New Zealand. If that was a real position or person y'all would be driving sideways to work

Well Americans waddled sideways in and voted for a can of Fanta... at least creamed crab doesn't start civil unrest.

Actually... it might. Scratch that

Hey less than half of us voted for Fanta. He just won because coke managed to take over most of the end cap displays.

Yeah, we don't even have a name for whateverthefuck shape India is!

My thoughts too. Put that back on a globe and it's pretty damn close to a circle! Considering it's hand drawn..

Yeah? Well at least in NZ we know how to draw a freaking circle. Didn't want to be in your stinky club anyway

They're not grouped, that's what the planet actually looks like from space.

Hey I don't know how economic free transit areas like the EU wold show up. But that's what I'm imagining, also a lot of it it's there

I wonder how many people live outside the red circle and have to commute to work within it.

11

This is false. The red circle is too small to fit more than maybe a couple fetuses, depending on your screen size.

Can "in" and "out" be meaningfully defined though, considering that circle is on a globe though?

I get the feeling that if this were on a globe, it would appear as a long, thin, and nearly empty circle.

Crabs, deep sea squids, coral polyps, and sea sponges are all people now.

How do you know? Maybe there is a race of advanced intra terrestrial humans that live under water. Also this map is missing the great wall of ice that holds the water in place.

That is true. As far as I know, nobody lives on my phone screen.

Then... wouldn't it be false?

1

How tall is the red wall? If it's only at sea level than this is entirely false, most people's would be above it.

More Gentoo live outside red circle than inside of it.

Ah this meme makes me nostalgic for back before everyone else got on the internet.

Red circle map, you were joy back in the day

2

I mean, if we can't see the circle that means its a really big one, so.....

Duh....
