Can we all agree on this? People from the US are called American because they are from the country of America. The name of the continent is irrelevant.
>MFW a Brazilian from Brazil says they are American because they are from South America.

No, we call Americans Americans and don't have any problem with that.
Only Latinos get butthurt because they feel they are being excluded from the term.
Are you from the United States?
>No
Then you are not American
Are you from North America?

Then you are North American
What you are doing is the equivalent of a German saying they are French because they are on the same continent as them.
Y tapatio?
No you're a spic sewer rat
The demonym of 'the Americas' is 'American', deal with it bitch.
As long as we get to be named the Kingdom of Scandinavia I'm fine with it.
Don't mind Denmark and Norway, they're irrelevant.
why do you identify yourself by the continent? why not just say you are mexican?
Don't conglomerate them. They are two seperate continents.
With this thinking a a spaniard could say they are Eurasian because Europe and Asia are connected.
You are Mexican and North American. Unless you move to America and become a citizen you will not be American.
You don't get to choose that
He does, that does not deny the fact that he is american
I don't, I'm just saying the demonym of the Americas is American
No, it's one continent
so why not just say you are mexican and leave it at that? why do you even mention the continent?
you dont hear people saying something like 'im a dutchmen from europe'
Do they teach that in Mexican schools? They are two seperate continents.

We don't call ourselves American we're just stating the fact that we are.
You aren't though. You're mexican, you're from Mexico.
Did you even read that?
>while North and South America are sometimes recognized as one American continent (green shades).
>We don't call ourselves American we're just stating the fact that we are.

>'my name is juan, im a mexican from america'
>LA, NY?
>'no i was born in mexico'
No you retards, you don't get to choose what american is and neither do I.
See demonym.
>In modern English, North and South America are generally considered separate continents, and taken together are called the Americas in the plural, parallel to similar situations such as the Carolinas. When conceived as a unitary continent, the form is generally the continent of America in the singular. However, without a clarifying context, singular America in English commonly refers to the United States of America.[7]
keep trying tho
At this point I don't know if you're just pretending to be retarded.
See demonym.
Yes did you? They are two seperate continents.
Why do you want to call yourself American so badly? You're north American and Mexican. You don't see Canadians calling themselves American.
I don't, I'm just stating a fact, why do you think that everything is related to peoples wishes?
It's not an opinion, it's a demonym.
Do euros ever do this? It only seems to butthurt Latin Americans
I've seen a few, but they may have been doing so ironically.
>butthurt spic
Every time
