Africa sent us a bunch of doctors, lawyers and peanut butter but they get a downvote for hurricanes.

Europe is becoming a major drain on the world.

North America because we slaughtered the natives and had slavery.

this has to be tremendously defined for you to get a better answer. but generally speaking, you can just blame everything on one of the white man continents.

Asia. They gave us almost all the major organized religions.

I assume this is sarcasm.

Both the Arabs and the S American nations enslaved more Africans than N America. The Asians have historically done a fine job of enslaving each other.

I vote Asia just due to the Mongol Hordes and the rise of Communism there, though the latter can in part be attributed to Europe as well.

ETA: The natives were doing a fine job of slaughtering each other before we got here.

Interesting question

I want to say Europe because it gave the world communism/socialism (Marx and then Russia), but Europe is also where capitalism and individual rights were created.

I think South America is the answer

Historically a socialist continent.

Asia based on all the trash and the sheer volume of people into the ecosystem

Shhh! The liberals say slavery was created here in America by the evil white devil and we must own up to it and hate America like them.

Africa for all the stupid diseases that started there (with Covid being an obviously exclusion) and Asia for all the goddamn invasive flora and fauna that came from there (and Covid).

Asia and I don't think it's remotely close.

Plenty of positive impact too of course.

Asia unleashed several epidemics of bubonic plague, including the Black Death in the 1300s which wiped out a significant chunk of the global population.

AIDS, Ebola, etc. got nothing on that.
