you’ll be glad to know that 2 others users made the exact same comment, hours after yours. Fist time I see a comment copied so many times, and as no- US folk, first time I heard of this so popular saying
The point of that phrase is to point out the ridiculousness of relating two completely unrelated items.
In this case, land mass on top of land mass is a relevant comparison, to help people who understand American geography to visualise European geography. To relate it to their own experience, and grasp why European powers see the invasion of Ukraine as a threat to themselves as well. So the phrase doesn’t work. It’s nonsense. Therefore, not constructive to the discussion and being downvoted.

Can’t speak for granny but I heard your mom was the town bicycle.
Can confirm, their mom carried me to school often, and only required infrequent lubrication. Wasn’t great up hills though
That’s such an insult to my mom, she’s way more of a train gal.
