Why arenĀ“t "Americans" not called "gringos" and USA "Gringoland"?.
Fits better.
Finally all the people of this continent we are Americans.

>>55724740
Agree with this guy.
1. Only country in Americas to have "America" in its name
2. First independent nation-state in the Americas
3. Latin Americans generally refer to us as "americanos," at least when not using the ethnic slur "gringo"
>>
Muricans are really stupid
We don't call you americans we call you estadounidense that would transmite as united stater
We all are Americans or americanos
We also call you yanki, gringo, burguer, north american, etc

i second this. at least we would have cheaper electronics and good consumer rights.

I prefer calling this continent New World as they stole its name
>>
>>55721869
Because USA hijacked the term before it got popular.
No other reason.
>>
>>55721869
Persians, Arabs, Pakis, Curryniggers are technically Asians, but when people here refer to "Asians" they generally mean squinty-eyed East Asian Chinks or SEAniggers.
>>
Well I'm glad they don't call me american, I would be somewhat offended because I'm not a retarded overweight nigger.

Nobody in South America cares.
We don't want to be American.
Leave us the fuck alone.

We'll be your allies if you want to remove kebab in the Middle East or build wall. Otherwise leave us the fuck alone.

Also, tell your college students to stop abusing our free university system.

>>55721869
Because we dont want to. Maybe mexicans. Not the rest.

>>55726958
That's not what I said.
We are not alike.

You Peruvians can fuck off back to your country as well. Hopefully Macri wins the elections and kicks you all out.

FUCK OFF WE ARE FULL
LEAVE US ALONE

>>55725366
This is what I hate about you guys, everything is a slur.

Here, if you call someone a local gringo (a blonde person ore white) they don't get offended.

If you call someone cholo (slur for aboriginal or something like that) they don't get offended.

One of my best friends is black and me and my group of friends call him: "negro" (black), "nigger" (literally) "fucking nigger" "nigga" "suciedad" (filth) "negro color caca" (shit colored black) "negro carbon" (coal black) "oscuridad" (darkness). and he doesn't get offended (most of them don't).

Although the rest of the post is correct, although sayng "americano" is really fucking unheard of in my country and if I heard that I would feel some rage t.b.h.f.a.m.
>>
>>55725366
>Latin Americans generally refer to us as "americanos"
not true. "Estadounidenses" is how they are referred to in every form of media.
>>
I don't want to be called an american much like I wouldn't want to be called european if I was polish, wouldn't want to be put in the same group as sweden and other gay nations.
