it’s as valid IN ENGLISH to use it to refer to the country as it is to refer to the continent(s)
It’s really not but you already know that, just as you know the (s) is incorrect because, in English, there is absolutely no such thing as a continent called America.
It’s not about confusion, it’s about the US acting like the center of the fucking universe.
It’s about you being a hypocrite and accusing a group of people of acting like the center of the universe because they use a word differently in their language than you use it in yours. You are being incredibly disrespectful of other cultures by trying to impose foreign definitions on how people describes themselves.
The fucking hypocrisy of you saying it’s disrespectful to take away US citizens’ ability to refer to themselves as Americans when they’re taking it away from everyone else that lives on the continent! You are not the center of the universe.
Also very funny that you’re talking about “my language” when English isn’t from the USA and isn’t the official language of just the USA in America. You have no idea if my first language is English or French or Spanish or Portuguese or anything else, you just assume it’s not English because I’m calling you out and you can’t accept that an English speaker wouldn’t be sucking your USian dick.
