I just feel bad for the ones not supporting this nonsense.

I’m guessing they already eat lentils, beans, chickpeas, etc. But this is not only Milei making people poor (that sucks), it is restricting beef which Argentinians probably are very attached to because of their typical dishes.

I get it. Reducing or eliminating beef from our diets can be great (for the majority), but this is not the way we should expect people to get to this lifestyle (against their ability to choose), so it can be a bad moment to mention the silver linings or even good advice like plant-based protein. That’s my opinion; it reads detached of the problem.

Northern America*, Anglo America*. But yeah, the comment was a little “oh, opportunity for diet ✨”, lol.

That’s me. It’s like being a smart idiot.

While I agree, there’s also a risk in letting the hypothetical family cause alarm about something false around electricity or whatever (misinformation).

We all are, yes. Also, accounts fall into the “cherry picking” problem. E.g., I’d had assume my friend’s only interest is Warhammer if I only knew him by his posts.

Because of an old rule (plurals get double letter), I believe the recommended way by the Academy is «E.E. U.U.». Not sure if they’ve said otherwise recently.

It’s also not uncommon to see «E.U.A.», «E.U.» or those same but without the dots.

No confusion with the European Union, though, because that’s «Unión Europa»: «U.E.».

Entire nations: You cannot keep “America” for yourself. There is history, maps, books, the independence of other countries in the region called for the liberation of “America” (e.g. Simón Bolívar “the liberator of America”; “America for the Americans”; Sentimientos de la Nación: “America is free and independent of Spain and all other nations, governments, or monarchies”).

The U.S. of A.: Yeah… No. I’m America now. There’s no other “America” because there’s only North America and South America, 🤷🏼‍♂️ don’t you know? And the land is The Americas because it’s two in one. Duh. Erasure? I call it freedom! 🇺🇸🦅

All languages do this to an extent.

Exactly. In Spanish, we have some ‘curious’ names for Germany and its states and cities. «Alemania» is the name of the country. «Renania-Palatinado» is Rheinland-Pfalz, Bayern got turned into «Baviera». «Colonia» is Köln, «Friburgo de Brisgovia» is Freiburg im Brisgau…
