Actually this is a bit misleading.

I think thats the the entire point of this post is how the projection is misleading lol

Yes but in trying to show how the projection is misleading, the post is still misleading you... Meaning the original was less misleading than you were made believe. By committing the same error caused by the projection itself. The post is trying to show that Africa is wider than Russia but it's not.
