Confuse a large country with all of the continent? It is like talking of &#34;Europe&#34; and only meaning &#34;Greece&#34; (originator of the name). Or &#34;Germany&#34; (largest economy).<br/><br/>Or the other way around: if a German or Greek would equal his country with the whole (sub)continent... we&#39;d correctly point this out as hybris. Or nationalism.<br/><br/>So: Let&#39;s not mute America! America != USA<br/><br/>Actually let&#39;s not mute anything if our reasoning capabilities are weak insofar as we don&#39;t even use terms that clearly distinguishes entities. 2024-09-14T02:30:14Z
