Greece or Hungary arguably aren't either.

not gonna argue that, greece relative to europe occupies the position of peurto rico relative to the US.

I just think that the self-concept of europe is chauvinist and it's more of desired boundary than anything real, and calling it 'a continent' gives it legitimacy that it does not deserve.

Every continental boundary is more of a desired boundary than anything real. There are no "real" continents.

I can't disagree with wanting to delegimitize it
