It so simple to see that its a generalisation, because you are bringing in continents, when there weren't any in the original picture. And making a relation between a country and a continent, when there doesnt exist any, with regards to homophobia.
There is no connection between a continent and the countries that make it up? Clearly there is no way to discuss this with you.
How you can claim you are correct, I still do not understand. I will leave the mis-representing part, becuase that is an avenue I dont want to go into.
I have stated why I think you are wrong. If you think I am wrong, then please tell why you are correct.
In the next iteration, we will stop this, and will just agree to dis-agree. Because, I have written all the arguments for my case in this post.

As noted, the difference is we don't execute people for it, nor condone those who do.

In practice it usually means they use non-offensive meaningless euphemisms lest someone object.

Of course not, it's a legitimate rhetorical device if not used (or taken) literally.
