lots of examples of what this map emoji means here

I particularly like this one of the countries that recognize Palestine, which is the inverse of the 'same map'.

No, this is not an explanation. For something as important as the imperial core, which you claim the map portrays, there needs to be an actual proper definition and reasoning behind it. Having a bunch of loosely corrolated maps is not it. The list of countries that recognize Palestine is also not a proper inverse.

I am just tired of seeing this map spammed. Once some even ridiculed others for not acknowledgeding it as the de facto definition of imperial core. I think this is especially bad due to having yet to see anyone actually putting any effort into analysis of why it looks like it does. Spewing unsubstantiated ideas is for the incoherent bourgeoisie and fascists.

It's a meme (Moreover, the emote is named "international community" not "imperial core").

Hexbear emotes are not rigorous theoretical statements. E.g.: xi-plz
