That was a rhetorical question about south America. I know the regions and I know what the continents are. I don't need you to explain them to me. Is that all you were trying to say or do you have another point?

Are you using google translate?

But that is not the definition of playing devil's advocate. You're technically correct when you play devil's advocate. The point is abscond the truth.

'someone who pretends, in an argument or discussion, to be against an idea or plan that a lot of people support, in order to make people discuss and consider it in more detail:'

When I hear someone say Jim Jordan is a pedo I say "why yes, he is." Coz he's complicit and even worse, never took accountability.

Did Hitler gas all 6 million jews? " Well, to be fair.."

Do you see how obnoxious you guys sound. We all know the truth. And the truth is Jim Jordan is complicit. If the world was objective, Jordan would've faced time for the crimes. EVEN THOUGH HE DIDN'T HE DO IT!But the world doesn't work that way.

You don't defend that. Ever.

Somebody is not getting their cut, otherwise the SC wouldn't block this.

You're beautiful. You're capable. You will do wonderful things in your life, but no one, and I mean absolutely no one, needs you to play devil's advocate for Jim Jordan. Respectfully.

I'm sorry, I thought you were talking about the regions that matter. We already knew Latin Americans refer to it as one. Unfortunately, you have to convince Americans to change their adjective to whatever it is latinos prefer. Good luck with that.

Edit: if my point wasn't clear enough, it doesn't matter what romance language speaking countries call the Americas (North and South). You can see that from the same article you cherry picked the info you copied and paste above

Answer to the last part of your statement

Do South and Central American words not exist in spanish? Soy de Sudamérica. Soy de Centroamérica. As the other comment said, this question is not ambiguous at all. And I know why people get mad, they hate the US, which I understand because they're assholes. No one will deny it. Ask any self respecting american and they will agree.

But with all due respect, this is a dumb ass question. Respectfully.

The US is sending mix signals. Biden condemns Hamas, calls them terrorists, and funds the iron dome. Of course Israel thinks they have carte blanche in the region. Surrounded by hostile nations, what other nations in the world acts as aggressive as Israel. They do it because they know they have the full backing of the US. The question is will we live in a world without any Palestinians in the middle east soon - coz that's where we're headed.

Israel misspelled their defense system. Should be called the irony dome.

The sovereign people of any nation have a right to call themselves what they please. People of the US decided on 'American' long before the Internet was a thing and Latin America people got pissed off. US intervention in Latin America is a stain in history, but this is categorically dumb. US citizens call themselves Americans because it's in the name. Literally. Canadians don't call themselves Americans and never will. This is dumb argument. Respectfully.

Pure, unadulterated racism.

No, I don't think a subscriber-only based model would work. Seems so simple that somebody would have tried it already, but what I imagine is the exorbitant cost of running a popular site.

No. With the current model of social media selling advertising space, user data, and now subscription fees. No, I don't think I should have to contribute directly from my pocket to these mega media giants.

No.

They finally caught their boogie man

Internet posts?! This is why online discussions are ridiculously stupid. A classic argument over semantics about Internet posts, when so many people have been censored for speaking out against the government. Anybody that thinks the US is a bastion of freedom has bought into the propaganda. The idea that the US can critique anybody about this tickles me. Green my ass

How on Earth is the US green 😭

That's right now, 2023 my guy
