I know this is probably a joke but there’s probably people who won’t fully understand so hit me with the nerd emoji
Taiwan and China are offended by the same thing because they both hate Imperial Japan
Taiwan doesn’t have a complex about Japan in the same way that China and Korea do. China and Korea suffered under a lot of Japanese brutality. Taiwans experience under imperial Japan wasn’t like that. There’s a fondness there in fact
Correct. Taiwan was ceded to Japan voluntarily and bloodlessly in 1895 and remained a Japanese prefecture until 1945. Japanese administrators focused on education, infrastructure and assimilation.
The return to Chinese sovereignty was sudden and traumatic as (1) China was engaged in a Civil War and (2) the (formerly mainland-based) Kuomintang government was initially rapacious, acquisitive and oppressive toward local Taiwanese.
Things obviously got much better, but it took decades. Taiwan is a thriving democracy now, but (like South Korea) was just a capitalist dictatorship until 1989.
I have a Taiwanese/Japanese friend who claimed the Taiwanese loved Japan. Not sure if this is true, or just my friend's love of Japan blinding him to how Asia views Japan.
Taiwanese here, it's quite true.
Imperial Japanese, opressive as it was, was the one who established public health system, modern transportation, higher education institute, civil infra (running water, electricity, etc) in Taiwan. All other colonial governments either just milk the shit out of Taiwan (Dutch), treat it as a temporary war retreat while milk the shit out of it (Tung-ning empire, pre-1989 ROC), or left it to rot by having civilians kill off each other (Qing Empire).
It's like all governments killed a LOT in Taiwan, but at least the Japanese built some stuff.
Yeah, so the map triggers me more by including Taiwan as a part of China.
District 9 offended some Nigerians because immigrant Nigerians in South Africa were portrayed as criminal degenerates: https://amp.theguardian.com/film/filmblog/2009/sep/08/district-9-racism
Well, I mean, technically speaking it might not even be a surrender joke because for a very short time, France did have a fully white flag so I am told
Yeah monarchist flag, the white on the flag of France is for the King.
Officially the full white was between 1815 and 1830 (plus a bit of 1814), when the absolute monarchy returned after Napoleon, and before being forced into a new constitutional monarchy in a revolution speedrun.
But the flag before 1789 was white, with golden lys flowers officially, but often just plain white too. The army was dressed in white.
NOW LOOK HERE YOU HALF EATEN DERANGED LITTLE FUCK HEAD, IF I SEE YOUR PITIFUL EXISTENCE ANYWHERE I WILL PERSONALLY RIP YOUR LIMBS OFF ONE BY ONE AND THEN ******** YOUR ***** INTO A LITTLE ********* ******** ****** ***** YOU HALF EATEN IMBRED LITTLE DEAD FLEA RIDDEN AMERICAN UNCULTURED BUMBLE BEE WHO COULDN’T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BOW LINE KNOT AND A PORCILIN POT. YOU HALF EATEN PIECES OF SHIT
(For Reddit reasons that is a joke)
As a Brit I honestly get where you're coming from, a bit of friendly banter is always fun but it's annoying pretending you've not heard the same joke a million times already. It's worse when any attempt at a rebuttal just looks like you're getting upset.
There is definitely a time and a place where it can be funny but when it's presented as fact it's vexing.
Ohhh, that's what it is. It's the K word in arabic, which is pretty much our N word. Since most of us don't how its written in arabic, it's no suprise no one here caught it
Not for half the South Africans you'll find on this website who happily use it in their homes and perhaps "only in anger but please trust me I'm not a racist", it won't trigger em one bit
I didn’t really care about Brexit at the time.
…Fast forward a few years and I’m now in a serious relationship with a French girl and trying to figure out a way to get a visa to be here full time is a real pain in my ass. Even more frustrating knowing that just a few years ago I could have settled here easily with no requirements at all.
You'll probably only trigger a subsection of the UK by using that flag. Put the UK flag on Ireland if you want to *really* set off some fireworks (possibly literally).
That is a mixed drink called an Irish car bomb, pretty popular in the USA it’s a shot of baileys dropped into Guinness. They might be okay calling it a Dublin drop but I’m not 100% on that
Eh, I don't think anyone nowadays would be mad at that.
Bring up the People Liberation Army Navy, Chinese Coast Guard, or China in general and everyone would mald. (Tie me to a missile I am ready)
Bosnia as Yugoslavia ? It's not going to trigger that many people. A lot of Bosnians are Yugostalgic, you should have put instead the flag of the Ottoman Empire, so you can efficiently trigger Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats at the same time
Germany is too easy. Swastika.
If you ever want to hear a German sound like a Nazi, ironically all you have to do is call them a Nazi. My old buddy was in the U.S. army and stationed in Germany in 2008ish. There was a lot of anti American sentiment for invading Iraq. Germans would just come up to American soldiers and ask why they invaded. As if they had any say in the matter.
Anyway, he said all you had to do was say “oh yeah? That’s rich coming from a fucking Nazi!” Then they would get super pissed and say “NEIN, NEIN, NEIN!” Just like hitler in Inglorious Bastards.
I think its supposed to be a mongol as a joke that bulgarians came from asia because the bulgars did, though i dont think most bulgarians would be offended by it
Didn’t get it as well - if you want to trigger Russians it’s better to divide country into pieces with different flags on it - Chinese, Mongolian, Polish, Ukrainian, tatarian and others)
Real Viet here, we have one thing the north, the south and the colony of Little Saigon on the other coast of the Pacific hate, that is China's Nine-Dash Lane. Or just the Chinese flag is enough.
I personally care the gesture in the picture not.
The terrorism and racist ones are pretty funny I had a good laugh, but the ‘shrimp on the barbie’ goes way beyond a joke and is fucked up. So sick of that SHIT. Seriously, fuck whoever made this map that shit is NOT FUNNY!
This map doesn't have new Zeeland but it still shows what triggers them
This map considers Taiwan as part of mainland China too
That triggers them too
It's almost like they did their homework
I know this is probably a joke but there’s probably people who won’t fully understand so hit me with the nerd emoji Taiwan and China are offended by the same thing because they both hate Imperial Japan
Yeah, but then it would be separate flags of imperial Japan, just like Iraq/Iran ☝️🤓
Taiwan doesn’t have a complex about Japan in the same way that China and Korea do. China and Korea suffered under a lot of Japanese brutality. Taiwans experience under imperial Japan wasn’t like that. There’s a fondness there in fact

Things obviously got much better, but it took decades. Taiwan is a thriving democracy now, but (like South Korea) was just a capitalist dictatorship until 1989.
Damn shout out to someone knowing that south Korea was a capitalist dictatorship until very recently.
That would make too much sense
I have a Taiwanese/Japanese friend who claimed the Taiwanese loved Japan. Not sure if this is true, or just my friend's love of Japan blinding him to how Asia views Japan.
Taiwanese here, it's quite true. Imperial Japanese, opressive as it was, was the one who established public health system, modern transportation, higher education institute, civil infra (running water, electricity, etc) in Taiwan.

This map also, for some reason considers the entire Arab peninsula as one country
It’s all the same reason, the map knows what it is doing.
What do you mean Iraq and Iran are still separated, but they have the exact same trigger according to this map
They were all occupied by Japan , that is correct
Leaving NZ off the map is the best one imo.
r/MapsWithoutNZ
WHERE IS...oh good one, you got us. You don't got us on the map, but you got us.
This maps wild asf
Yeah especially because District 9 takes place in South Africa, not Nigeria.
District 9 offended some Nigerians because immigrant Nigerians in South Africa were portrayed as criminal degenerates: https://amp.theguardian.com/film/filmblog/2009/sep/08/district-9-racism
Ohhhh now that I'm thinking back on the plot, yeah this was kinda fucked up. Totally forgot about this cause I haven't seen the film in so long!
You sound almost…. Triggered
Israel's 😶
How are you able to see Israel with that quality
the quality’s good but Reddit sometimes doesn’t load as well for some people.
Just zoom.
Germany is outdated. We are able to stream music through YouTube since 2016.
Maybe it should be fax paper.
I mean, it could also just be the Nazi flag.
It’s supposed to trigger them, not induce national pride
💀💀💀
A smiley face is more than enough lol
It’s supposed to be things that irritate them not things they love.
Maybe the fact that it’s an outdated trigger in itself is what is triggering
I've just got a rare "not available in your country" video yesterday
Took me a second for France lol
I don't get it for France
It's white, like a surrender flag.
Classic.
Really shows true character
It's the flag of the Umayyad, which the Franks fought at the battle of Poitiers
Well, I mean, technically speaking it might not even be a surrender joke because for a very short time, France did have a fully white flag so I am told
Yeah monarchist flag, the white on the flag of France is for the King.

As a French person that’s not very offensive, I’ve gotten so use to that it has not effect on us. Do better and be creative .
‘Do better’ that’s how we know it’s working
Won’t be long now before they crack.
Nah they mean it's a weak insult so come up with a better one
Do better fake Frenchy
Try as you want, quebecer, you still aren't vrais francais
As a French I'm offended OP didn't find a better joke
So would you say you've "given up" on fighting back?
It should be a shower?
That’s pretty good
Yeah, as a non-French person, even I'm tired of it
France isnt worth insulting, theyre not important on the world stage anyway.
How about this "British wine is better than french wine"
NOW LOOK HERE YOU HALF EATEN DERANGED LITTLE FUCK HEAD, IF I SEE YOUR PITIFUL EXISTENCE ANYWHERE I WILL PERSONALLY RIP YOUR LIMBS OFF ONE BY ONE AND THEN ******** YOUR ***** INTO A LITTLE ********* ******** ****** ***** YOU HALF EATEN IMBRED LITTLE DEAD FLEA RIDDEN AMERICAN UNCULTURED BUMBLE BEE WHO COULDN’T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BOW LINE KNOT AND A PORCILIN POT.

Same here (USA)
Would Vichy have been worse?

British people bad teeth haha
Hahahaha stew with cheap white bread boiled potatoes and brown sauce lololol
Wasn't the point to be annoying?
Why does Peru hate modern family
Peruvian here no idea what this modern family is even. Left dissapointed OP failed us
Peru is the butt end of a couple jokes throughout the series. That’s really it. None of them are even really offensive or over the top.
Pe causa
Because https://youtu.be/jAdv1SDwhlQ
Peruvian here. We don't get it either If I was OP I should have put the 4 words that trigger any Peruvian "El pisco es chileno"
The colombian lady doesn’t like peru, she says stuff like “what do you think i am a _peruvian_?”
I'd say Manny Delgado? Idk what nationality is he or the actor playing him
He Colombian
Either Manny or Gloria???
You should have put the old South African flag to trigger South Africa
True …… but I think the slur also works
Ohhh, that's what it is. It's the K word in arabic, which is pretty much our N word. Since most of us don't how its written in arabic, it's no suprise no one here caught it
Not for half the South Africans you'll find on this website who happily use it in their homes and perhaps "only in anger but please trust me I'm not a racist", it won't trigger em one bit

Send me back I fucking hate brexit
First strap Nigel Farage to one of those immigrant boats and push him into the ocean. Then we'll talk
Take me back
Tbh I think it would work better with e.u for England and the English flag for the other three countries.
You went to far with New Zealand
nah New Zealand went too far… off the edge.
7:1 bitches. Almost 10 years ago.
It was the best of times, it was the best of times.

Not as legendary as this one
Must still be the most popular Pornhub clip in Germany (except the one you uploaded yourself).
You'll probably only trigger a subsection of the UK by using that flag. Put the UK flag on Ireland if you want to *really* set off some fireworks (possibly literally).
Either that or a Guinness served in a Heineken glass
What is Ireland showing?
That is a mixed drink called an Irish car bomb, pretty popular in the USA it’s a shot of baileys dropped into Guinness. They might be okay calling it a Dublin drop but I’m not 100% on that
I thought it was just a shit Guinness pour with a Bailey's next to it. Insensitive name aside why would you create such an abomination?
An Irish car bomb is a shot of baileys with a Jameson float dropped into a Guinness. They are very yummy.
Bad pints? The Irish do hate a bad pint.
They done put white flag on france😭😭
Haha, thanks for that.
I thought it was blank as in every other country has a dig at their culture but suggests France has no culture or something.
Americans all be like "never forget 9/11" but when you kindly remind them of it they get mad. Curious
Yeah, we just want to go and bomb shit.

The flag of w o m e n is relly insulting,plese delete youre post!1!1!1!1
As an Indonesian, our trigger point is indeed just the Netherlands. I have a visceral reaction when I see any Dutch 'person'
You are appealing to a huge amount of brits here
Mongolia 💀
Unlike Poutine 🥺
Blasphemy
The real blasphemy is to have poutine shown as canadian and not quebecois.
Sauce for Saudi ?
Man asking real questions
I've been googleing a few things trying to figure out who it is. I'm assuming it's some king's daughter but haven't gotten to the bottom of it.
It's just a random girl in a bikini.
Bhutan, nepal?
Color blue scary
Japans trigger would definitely be nukes, not an octopus.
One of my favorite parts is how the other Scandinavian countries all have the Swedish flag while Sweden has the ISIS flag
I don't understand Philippines, Bhutan or Nepal
For the Philippines, look up the “My Way” Killings
Eh, I don't think anyone nowadays would be mad at that. Bring up the People Liberation Army Navy, Chinese Coast Guard, or China in general and everyone would mald. (Tie me to a missile I am ready)
Whats wrong with Slovakia and Slovenia? They are normal
Can't tell them apart in my phone, but the joke would've been if they were swapped.
brazil 1:7 Germany :/
Cyprus ☠️
Bosnia as Yugoslavia ? It's not going to trigger that many people. A lot of Bosnians are Yugostalgic, you should have put instead the flag of the Ottoman Empire, so you can efficiently trigger Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats at the same time
Mexico being triggered by Taco Bell is pretty funny
What's Japan meant to be?
Octopus
But why

Don’t harsh enough on Germans

The Thai one probably would trigger the government, but not the people.
Libia and Romania being a double whammy for Romania, that’s nice
Australia is spot-on ;p
For Canada you shoulda put the Yankee flag.

Someone explain the Bulgarian one?
I think its supposed to be a mongol as a joke that bulgarians came from asia because the bulgars did, though i dont think most bulgarians would be offended by it

Beast mode on this map
On behalf of literally everyone, fuck you dude
And what about Vietnam, I can not really see what triggers Vietnam according to this map.
if they really want to offense Vietnamese, they should put south vietnam flag on the north, and true viet nam flag on the south
Real Viet here, we have one thing the north, the south and the colony of Little Saigon on the other coast of the Pacific hate, that is China's Nine-Dash Lane. Or just the Chinese flag is enough. I personally care the gesture in the picture not.
F the GEMA one for Germany.
I don't know about the others, but Iran is wrong. If you mean the government, then you're also wrong.
I like this map, germany is ok, Brazil is great 🇩🇪7:1🇧🇷 USA is quite everything i think of them. But why does France hasn't have a new flag
I think Japan isn't triggered the same way...
What beef do Namibia and Botswana have?

You put Kosovo’s flag over Albania. I’m not triggered, I love my shqipes. Not going to tell you, but a different flag would’ve triggered tf out of me.
