>Explain it faggot.
A square is a regular quadrilateral with four equal sides and four right angles. Polygons like the complete image or the top left quadrant, which you seem to be discounting, are such quadrilaterals. The fact that other squares exist whose area partially overlaps with them does not stop them being a square, as squares are not about areas in any way - they are about quadrilaterals, which are defined in terms of line segments only.

In a 2 dimentional world, you cant stack shit up on the depht dimention, otherwise it'd mean it's 3D.

Nope nothing about 6 sided figures and interpreting 2-dimensional fields as 3-dimensional. I checked though because that comeback was so witty.

We're not stacking things. You don't need an extra dimension to say that two figures overlap.

If you divide a cube into four cubes, the bigger one is still a cube, dammit!

Nice. So now that you found this. Do you understand what a line segment is and that (as a set of points) can have a subsegment (which is another segment)?

You can't have overlapping figures in 2-dimensional fields though you fucking intellectual light weight. All you'd have to do is say that we're assuming it's 3-dimensional and you'd be right
