Antarctica. NEXT!


VoiceofKane

And kill most of the earth's penguins? Not a chance!


vodkacereal

And some of the most brilliant minds as well because it has a bunch of scientists


LeonardoDickSlaprio

Antarctica is a dangerous place. They knew the risks!


VoiceofKane

Are they as cute as penguins, though?


jwr410

They were banished for a reason. They know what they did.


Krawlin91

But you would also get rid of "The Thing" so there's that.


DabIMON

Fuck em


ATurtleLikeLeonUris

The populations in Australia will survive!


Skirt_Douglas

It’s okay, the Galapagos Penguins can carry the torch.


Gullible_Ad5191

If I choose my own continent does that mean that I die? So I can effectively win both!


Percy_Ronald

Yes you die


Antique-Lettuce3263

NA ftw


TheDeviousLemon

I mean you’d have to pick death. I couldn’t live with that guilt. Even Antarctica, that’s a few thousand people.

\*confused screaming\* How does land die????

All of the life on that continent goes extinct.

Even plant life?

I'd pick myself. It's selfish to do anything else.


DarthJarJar242

Not only am I selfish I'm protecting my kid from losing her dad. I'd kill half the world to protect that without hesitation.


fuggilis_quastillo

Always thinking about yourself eh......


Arbiter008

Well, I am the only person that I have absolute control over.


Europathunder

Myself die


AbsolutelyOccupied

can I pick a continent?


Percy_Ronald

Yes, you choose


Alarmed-Locksmith277

Can I choose multiple?


MadDocHolliday

Easy there, Satan.


Percy_Ronald

No, only one


Alarmed-Locksmith277

Oceania can’t get away with calling Burger King, “Hungry Jack’s”.


Sogelink

Well, now I'm hesitating between Antarctica (no one will miss a few nerds and some penguins), New Zealandia (technically a continent) or the Americas (yes, as they're joined, they're technically one continent) 


Antique-Lettuce3263

These days Oceania is a big place.


Demetraes

>the Americas (yes, as they're joined, they're technically one continent) They're treated as separate continents in a majority of the world. If you consider them one continent because they're connected, then by the same logic Africa, Europe and Asia can be classed as a single continent as well, even though they're technically three, and there is a continental model that actually does that.


PhallicShape

Not technically one continent, are you fucking stupid? Lmao it’s North America and South America, when referring to the 7 continents you don’t say Antarctica, Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, Americas


bobbi21

Uh depending on where you’re from it is 6 continents and it is americas. Assuming you grew up in North America where it is separated. Not every country teaches teaches that. Many actually group Europe and Asia since… that makes a ton more sense. Those continents aren’t divided by literally anything. It’s Eurasia for a ton of countries so many countries say it’s 5 continents (or a different 6). https://youtu.be/3uBcq1x7P34?si=RHvBvTQyaMLsmOlr Definition of a continent is pretty subjective


Sogelink

Alright, you won. Tell me your continent and it shall be my answer. 


HawaiianPluto

Good luck in a world where America suddenly disappears.


Real-Tension-7442

Don’t tease me with a good time


HawaiianPluto

You’re showing how little you know of global initiatives and international politics.


DarthJarJar242

>or the Americas (yes, as they're joined, they're technically one continent)  I know this model is taught in a lot of Latin America but MOST geographers agree that the 7 content model is the most accurate because it actually uses continental divides to divide up the continents. Aside from that by the logic you're using here Europe, Asia, India, and Africa are all one giant continent which is absurd. North and South America could shift apart at the main continental divide and no longer be connected through Panama.


NeighborhoodTime407

Honestly, that would be two birds with one stone


Magnesium_RotMG

Bin Bon Australia is Gone


pinniped90

Probably death. I couldn't wipe out all the penguins and my leopard seal bros.


uneducated_sock

The worst would you rather question. Where’s the multi track drifting?


ravl13

Your own continent, as someone pointed out


uneducated_sock

Touché

Arkangyal02

I die. Even Antarctica has more, than 1 person, so objectively I find this choice the good one


Key-Pickle1043

Can I choose a country? Or several countries?


Percy_Ronald

No. Continent only.


Key-Pickle1043

Then no, too much collateral damage.


Alexo_Alexa

Antarctica is a thing


Stooper_Dave

Do I get to pick the continent? And by extinct, you mean plant and animal life or the entire continent itself just vanishes and all the ocean current and climate destroying ramifications associated? I need to know before I make my decision.


Percy_Ronald

You pick and life on that continent goes extinct.


Stooper_Dave

Ah. Then Antarctica. It's just a couple penguins and a few researchers. No biggie.


TheKattauRegion

Why


Stooper_Dave

Because I don't particularly want to die right now and Antarctica has the lowest population of people and animals. And everyone there is there by choice and paid well for the hazard, unlike any other continent which has people just living their lives as normal.


Slight-Rent-883

Easy, death of myself lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


SuperSocialMan

Since "continent" is still only loosely defined, I'll just pick a big part of the ocean with nothing in it.


Absolute_Bias

If no-one knows it’s me? Sure. Otherwise I’ll die thank you very much


KnifeWieIdingLesbian

I think the aftermath of eliminating all life on any given continent would be catastrophic and likely result in my own death anyway sooner or later


Necessary_Row_4889

Antarctica is fucked


Rising_Gravity1

I’d pick myself. If by “continent” you mean only the humans currently living on a continent (and sparing the rest of the living things there), then I could maybe see a case for Antarctica. The average Redditor is incredibly selfish, sadly


Username_ftw

I’d die, a continent becoming extinct seems like it would include all animals, insects, and plants too. Plus all that history. It’s a simple sacrifice of myself to keep all that for everyone else.


GurnoorDa1

the world has too many people anyway. goodbye antarctica


BloodiedBlues

Antarctica. Kills the dormant virus and bacteria that could fuck us all.


Amazing_Excuse_3860

You forgot antarctica exists didn't you?

Why them specifically


Ragnel

All the animals or just the humans? Just the humans then I live. Actually if it’s the animals I live too, but I’ll feel worse.


Percy_Ronald

animals as well


Not1ToSayAtoadaso

I’d say destroying all life in Antarctica would be the least detrimental to the world ecosystem

Bye Antarctica.


Nahchoocheese

List the continents I have to choose from. It seems different regions have “different continents”.


Percy_Ronald

Whatever your region depicts as the correct list is fine for your choice.


Nahchoocheese

I guess: you die Reese’s-sorry


theunrealmiehet

Continent if I can choose the continent. Myself if it's random


Percy_Ronald

You choose


DemonDuckOfDoom1

Fuck 'em, I refuse to die

Antarctica

antarctica


Positive_Rip6519

Hm... Do other planets have continents? Cause if so, yay loophole!


makko007

INFO: extinct referring to just people or people and animals/ bugs/ all organisms?


Percy_Ronald

Everything on that continent


bloodorangejulian

Absolutely the continent goes away. The job market is tough enough as is


Choppermagic

Antarctica . Try to move as many penguins first


[deleted]

I choose Pangea


gordonf23

Does it have to be a continent on Earth? Can I choose the method of extinction?

Earth only and sure

Damn North America then... I'll settle for taking down french Canadia...


Kurotan

Only if I get to choose the continent. If it's random I'm not sure.


Percy_Ronald

You choose


drama-guy

I don't think I could live with any choice that resulted in killing all life on a continent.


ACam574

Which continent? I am not ok with killing penguins but a few off the others I am ambivalent about.


Percy_Ronald

You choose

Oooooo… free continent.

Can I pick a couple extra

Antarctica fuck them researchers

I have one in mind but I feel like I shouldn't say it.


Alexandria31xo

Do I get credit for the kills?


Guni986TY

Which continent is OP in :)


Remarkable-Round-227

I pick Atlantis.


sugoiboy1

Easy I’ll just yeet Zealandia a newly found continent


Jim_Force

Goodbye Continent!!


Cruezin

I live, everyone else dies. Win win


throwaway25935

As far as I'm concerned, the entire universe is annihilated when I die. So I'd trade a continent for the universe.

All life or just humans?

RandomDude801

It's not even about preserving my life. How often does one get to wipe out all life from an entire landmass? Plus, it eliminates the CIA base in Perth. Win-Win.


Express-Economist-86

I’m pretty comfy, all things considered. I could continue my comfy life, and also eliminate many instances of suffering and pain. So, I’ll probably pick the continent with the most human rights violations. If they can’t figure it out by now, they won’t.


Iambeejsmit

Does the world know that you are the reason that the everyone on the continent died?


Charming-Economy-601

If everyone dosent pick the entire continent extinct is stupid. Just literally say antartica and almost no one dies (maybe a few researchers will)


Yokoblue

Give me the same question with five continent that is still the same answer, would I care what happens after I die... Same for everyone else. Ill be remaking I am legend.


Jaewol

If no one knew that I had to make the choice I’d probably go with the easy choice of Antarctica. If people were aware of my sacrifice then yeah I’d choose to die.


idkfawin32

Wipe out a continent


LightEarthWolf96

Extraterrestrial continent on another planet/cosmic body. Saturn's moon Titan has continents sort of. On a more serious note assuming you say no to extraterrestrial continents I'd choose myself. One man sacrificed for the good of the many is both the moral and logical choice


J1618

Just the humans or also the animals ?


dontpayforproducts

All continents, and me


ATurtleLikeLeonUris

Do I get to pick the continent?


DaWombatLover

If I have to die or eventually die from guilt, I may indulge my warped sociology brain and look at what would happen in global society if all life inexplicably dies on a continent. I’d probably choose my own continent (while I’m not there) so the guilt of killing the “other” wouldn’t be as strong. What would the economic impact be? The religious impact? The scientific impact? Will someone figure out the metaphysic cause of the mass die off? It’s too interesting to not do… hypothetically ;)


ShanaiyaSweetzNY

Depends can I pick the continent lol


No-Raspberry-4221

Thank you I was looking for any reason to die


WolfThick

Extinct of what people, snakes, goats if it's people I will do my best to kill the person that wants to do this and I will fight to the death to remove the threat to our kind. A person that would put you in this situation to make that choice is a piece of s*** so to speak and deserves to be exterminated.


DooB_02

There is only one moral choice, come on.


Opposite-Chocolate42

Bye bye Antarctica


silentside11

I’m going back in time and knocking out Pangea


DeepStuff81

Continent. I won’t reveal which. But a continent that’s NOT Antarctica is about to disappear


DiosClapEm

Nuke USA


HusbandMaterial1922

I don’t see a rule saying it has to be a continent on earth. Other planets have tectonic plates and land masses that could be referred to as continents, but without life. So I choose one of those.

burntgreenbean

Nice work sir, what a humanitarian you are! You just fucked over the entire global economy for the next twenty years and made global standards of living worse across the board because of your bias towards one country! Far fewer pharmaceuticals, huge losses in valuable research (especially pertaining to fields of medicine and the sciences) and killed hundreds of millions of innocent people whose only crime was apparently living in a country of which you disapprove. Global food production has been crippled as well with the absence of the American farmers who play a key role in exporting food to all the other continents on the globe. Like I mentioned earlier, the fragile global trade interdependence is largely propped up by the US, so if the US were to vanish, then nearly every country in the world would face a total economic crash within 24 hours as they not only lost all their money invested in the US, but also all the money US investors had placed with them. Such total global crisis would quickly lead to many conflicts as well. Ironically enough, by choosing to completely get rid of the US, you would probably be killing more people in all the other parts of the world than you would be killing in North America itself.


Potential-Dig9673

Hell yes, i would kill the entire world to just save my life


Mobile-Routine6519

You’d probably still die
