And central America. If it said "Latin America" instead, it would be correct.

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Central America is officially a part of North America, though, as is the Caribbean. Otherwise, North America would consist of only two or three countries, depending on how you classify Mexico ๐Ÿคท

Actually I thought NA was just 3 countries (or 4 if you count Greenland).

But also, continents are a social construct. America is one continent, is 2 continents, is 3 continents.

Careful, now, you're heading towards a Pangaea Reunification campaign! ๐Ÿ˜

No thanks. I'm pro-antlantic-separatism.

Bigot! (JK of course)

U.S.A. and Canada are born from Spanish, French and British colonisation, Britain is a French colony, therefore, they are also part of Latin America !

And we're all just stardust anyway.

As thanks for reminding me of it, here's some Symphony of Science โค๏ธ

I dont think i want meat from most countries in those regions. Food safety regulations are not made equal everywhere. I wouldnt want any from the US either

[โ€“] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't know about their regulations, but countries like Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, Australia, and Japan are famously exporters of some of the most sought after meat in the world..

[โ€“] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Yeah thats why i said "most" not "all". Those are like 10% of the countries in those regions or less.

[โ€“] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

They're also where the majority of the exported meat from those places comes from, so you can see how it could be easily interpreted as including those countries.

(This isn't meant to sound dickish if it comes across that way, just explaining the thought process)
