Do you have anything actually meaningful to bring to the discussion other than your self-righteousness?

I did in the first part of my comment. I didn't provide any links, because you didn't. If that's what you want though, fine.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent

The seven-continent model is taught in most English-speaking countries, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and also in Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Suriname, parts of Europe and Africa.

So together that represents 4.1 billion of the 8.3 billion people on the planet

The six-continent combined-Eurasia model is mostly used in Russia and some parts of Eastern Europe.

If we add just Russia to that list, even ignoring the rest of Eastern Europe, we come to 4.2 billion, or over half of the global population now.

The six-continent combined-America model is taught in Greece and many Romance-speaking countries—including Latin America.

I'm assuming you're in Latin America, and that's why you're taking this personally. My commentary was simply about you being pedantic about something that doesn't really matter. The tone of your post seemed to imply that your opinion here was the only correct one... something that clearly isn't accurate.

I didn't realize that half the world combined the Americas, much like it seems you didn't know that as well given your original post.

Either way, this discussion is off topic from the original post about Healthcare in the US and ultimately pointless here. I can only assume you came here looking for an argument given the tone of your original post and responses so far, so you can have fun arguing with yourself over pointless delineations that serve no purpose. Have a good day.

Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.



Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.

If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.
