I found such a photo on the Internet and became interested in what function such a structure could perform.

I really hope you're making a joke cos of this one very limited example. Cos if not...

[-] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I mean, I thought it was obviously a joke, and you're there with me. Right? I took the use of land bridges, nature bridges, animal bridges, whatever term is used, and used it to compare the State of New Jersey to a continent, neither of which are homogenous enough to be able to even make a comparison.

I'm just curious why you really hope it's a joke though. I suppose I have the ire of some Europeans in drawing such a conclusion, and I'm genuinely curious why that's the case.

I guess the best place to start would be what's European?

The thing that made me question it is that Americans have a tendency of saying dumb stuff like you did, and mean it. Cos like you said, there is very little to properly compare them.
