    I dont believe in that separation. Its all just people. Politics try to make you guys two sides fighting eachother but you have much more incommon with eachother than the owner class.

      They said that to point out you said ‘America’ when there’s a north America and a south America and your statement is only true for one country within one of those. We all know what you meant, but let’s stop playing into US exceptionalism by using the name for two whole continents as a synonym for it.

        America is never associated with South America. It always means North America. If someone means South America, they always say so.

    out of the four? There’s Northern Northern (Canada), Middle Northern (shithole), and Southern Northern (Mexico). And of course all of Southern.

      The map says North America and South America, any other subdivisions are arbitrary.
