rember to yell USA USA USA as loudly a you can
As if I wasn’t already.
Beer guns and the Bible all the ingredients for Americas next great work place shooting new on fox who wants to be a mass shooter judges watch shooting and decided who did it best winner gets a trump pardon
Surprised the crusaders haven’t appeared yet saying “American” includes every country in the Americas… Canadians, Mexicans, Panamanians, Brazilians etc etc :-)
Every Canadian I’ve ever met doesn’t like to be called American. Don’t know about the other countries, but I’d assume it’s the same.
They prefer North American in my experience, if not simply Canadian.
Wait, when David Bowie sang “I’m Afraid of Americans,” was he singing about us Canadians too?? This never even occurred to me as a possibility.
Yeah for real 😅 who would want to claim that? Lol
I think some just dislike that one country claims the demonym of two whole continents.
Well South Africa is not the only country in the south of Africa if we are gonna go around getting bent out of shape by such petty shit. The other countries in the Americas all have their own distinctive names and don’t want to be called americans, it’s a non issue
Don’t get me wrong, “american” now caries connotations I want nothing to do with.
I have a solution.
We rename the continents.
If everyone on two continents is an American, then how are people from the one country literally called America supposed to differentiate themselves?
USAers or United Statesians
Oh fuck
You can’t use the second because the official name for Mexico is United Mexican States.
Am I wrong in saying it’s not literally called America? I thought it was called United States
USA buddy, the A stands for America
Right, so it’s not literally America. United States of America is the country, while just the word America represents all the countries in the Americas
There’s also the Republic of Ireland, the Republic of Korea, the Islamic Republic of Iran, the United Republic of Tanzania, the People’s Republic of China, the State of Kuwait, the Kingdom of Belgium, the Republic of Latvia, the Principality of Monaco, the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of Sweden, the Commonwealth of Australia, the Republic of Peru, the Republic of Paraguay, the Republic of Ecuador and a whole ton of other countries who are called by the last word in their official names because that is HOW ENGLISH WORKS.
And if you really gave a damn about all the people in Latin America, you’d call them by the proper names of their countries.
But if you insist I’m wrong, go over to lemmy.ca and post a thread telling them they’re American. See what they think.
…of America
Exactly
in german they are often called US-Americans, though Americans is usually understood aswell.
I’m quite happy not placing myself in the same American bucket, not sure why anyone would say that.
Amazingly there were a bunch of them… 🤷I can’t figure it out either
I’m pretty sure those crusaders are not from the Americas.
If the eisle number was 9/11 it would have been perfect
I wear joggers, not sweatpants.
I went into a Kohls a few months back and wound up walking into the big and tall section. Either they were going through reorganizing or it was all sweatpants. No jeans, no slacks, nothing. Basically if you had a 45+" waist you were only allowed to wear sweatpants. I realized at that moment that shopping for clothes has to be really hard if you are bigger. I didn’t even see shorts.
Trackydacs??
I’ll take everything but the beer and the Bibles, thanks.
I’ll take the CryptoMuffin’s beer.
I’d be glad to give it to ya!
Where’s the steak? I can’t shop here if I have to search the entire god damn store for one god damn thing
That’s what the guns and potatoes are for.
NO BURGER LITERALLY COMMUNISM 😡
You shall eat ze bugs
One stop shop for a Saturday night.
I recognize the colors and shape of wal-mart signage. Our most shameful store. The labels are shopped but you can for sure get all that stuff there.
