They don't REALLY think they're Americans, right? They're just baiting for yous?
>>214399494We are more American than the Usonians
A lot of them do get ass blasted about that for whatever reason
>>214399512
Who can be more American than Mesitzos and Castizos we are the children of the land
reminder
>>214399547Curiously, it is the other way around
>>214399520Other way around.Germans call us Amerikaner.French call us Amerikanisch.Italians call us Americano. Russians call us Amerikansky.Japanese call us Amerikahito.Other Anglophones call us Americans. Everyone's got this down but you.
>>214399577>Amerikaner.>French call us Amerikanisch.FUCK *americain
>all the countries with the best and most prestigious education systems, not just the US, teach there are 7 continents>but actually it is the Latinx education system that teaches America is one continent that is right all along>everyone else is wrong and only Latinx America is right
>>214399577We got you an original nickname instead. Nicknames are very important in the mexicanx culture, and the USA is the only nation with a nickname
>>214399551I have indigenous ancestry too but not Hispanic at all so my opinion cancels yours out.
>>214399591Aussies call us seppos (should be seppx).Yankee too but that only refers to people from New England and it's incorrectly used by foreigners to refer to people from Dixie states.
>>214399494América es un continente
>>214399614Yeah but I meant that for mexicans, americans are the only nation that we gave a nickname (gringx)
>>214399684gringo just means white persongringo (plural gringos or gringoes)(slang, often derogatory) A white person from an English-speaking country, particularly the United States.
>>214399735>let me tell you about your culture
>>214399735It's gringx now actually
if somehow atomic physics was a point of nationalism for latinx (say some mexican invented the bohr model) they'd probably still hold that to be true and deny the existence of quantum mechanics or something loljust like brazilians can't accept that America invented the airplane.
>>214399735Apparently is a word invented by mexicans, and in mexico it means american (from any race)
>>214399766no it doesn't, this is a cope mexicans made up because it admits that hispanics are not white>b-b-butedit it thenhttps://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gringoyou can't because you are lying

>>214399494The name "America" referred to the area that is now South America, if anything, when the tugas and us started using it. Before yanks appropriated the name, everyone in the New World called themselves as such. In the wars of independence, they pitted Americans against Spaniards. Even Mexico in its declaration of independence called itself "Spanish Northern America"
>>214399755Homer is translated as Homero not Jomer

>>214399803Just edit it sanchez.
>>214399787It's true here in my country we call any English speaking foreigners gringx not just whites
>>214399778>using a yank resourcehttps://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/gringoThe original word was used for people who couldn't speak spanish for shit regardless of ancestry.

Is it really so hard to understand for the burgermensch that people call them "americans" because their country has the most inconvenient name in existence?
>>214400125How is "America" or "USA" inconvenient to say?
>>214400166Estadounidenses
>>214400249Everyone else says "America", try that?
América es un país del continente norteamericano.América é um país do continente norte-americano.America is a country on the continent of North America.
>>214400286>Let me tell you about your culture
>>214400351>I can't call them Americans because.. i'm just butthurt, ok?
Yes, our full name is United States of Mexico and we are called mexicansYes, your full name is United States of America and you will be called gringx
this niggas really named their country after an italian nigga
>>214400360We are all AmericansJust like how when you refer to Europeans/Asians/Africans, etc.
>>214399883>>planes fly tiny cuckroutes of no import-ACK
>>214399784It means something different in English than in Spanish. In English, it means a White person, specifically a White American.Black Americans and Chicanos aren't gringos here.
>>214400468this
>>214399787>>214399797>>214399811>>214400125>>214400302Okay SERIOUS answer, why is a massive convenient, barely connected by a piece of land much smaller and thinner than the Sinai, considered to be one continent, but you people put Europe on a pedestal and think it deserves its own spot when it’s only “divided” by a small mountain range?I’m all for listening to the “one America” arguments but it falls flat when you don’t include Europe, or even Africa as previously mentioned, as part of Asia
>>214400511it's because the spanish and moortugese do the same thing because they're butthurt they didn't get all of america
>>214400549This isn’t about them, I’m only asking about Latinx who get really butthurt about this when, by their own standards and ‘logic’, they should be classifying Eurasiafrica as one thing but they never do
>>214400511I assume the distinction comes from america(s) being relatively new. Old world continents have been defined for ages, this isnt the case for new world, so there still is more disagreements
>>214399735Then why is it constantly used for non-whites (including latinx diaspora)?
>>214400511Because latinx nations are subjects of history. They need a place in world history but dont have one because they are passive entities defined by what happens to them. They saw in a map that they share a continent with the USA so they figured out they must be americans too. Then Monroe said "America for the americans" and the latinxs were happy to belong to the american category
>>214399494America is a latinx nameAME = LOVERICA = RICH
>>214400585Apparently russia and eastern europe classify it as eurasia but the rest dont. (They still recognize that north and south america are separate continents, just like Germany, Nords, the UK and ireland) - it's only the medshitters who claim it's one
>>214400511By your geographical definition, Europe shouldn't be considered a continent, and yet you consider it as such, so it's not just about having the most scientifically accurate definition.
>>214400669You have a place being peripheral Westerners, like eastern Europeans.
>>214400721>america means richyet another reason you'll never be american
>>214400754Mexicans never really cared about that nonsense. We know we are mexicans from north america
>>214400721Its called america because a german cartographer drew a map and named it after the italian explorer amerigo vespucciThe name just caught on, thats it. In case you care, he placed the name in modern day brazil
>>214400752they're a continent because their history and culture and genetics are different than that of asiasame with north and south america
>>214400787Why isnt the middle east a continent then
>>214400593So this can go a few different ways. North Africa and Sub-Sahel should be a whole separate continent?Asia should not include India or Arabia?But then the other way around,Why doesn’t Europe include all of Siberia? Most of them are still Russians in one uninterrupted stream. Should the east and west of the Himalayas be separated?And again, going back to your statement of distinction and definition, this is from Eurocentric sources, I get their countries were founded by Europe but them acknowledging that to be the reason why they think it’s different just proves my point. It’s not just this continent argument, but a lot of their issues seem to stem from fucked-up logic
Related question, do latinx really think being catholic makes them western?
You'd think people would learn not to bite chikaner threads after the first 870
>>214400766I know you actually do because because you larp as Romans. Every culture descended from European Christendom does that because larping as Romans is what being Western is about.
>>214400796I guess because continents are an european concept and europeans didnt give a fuck about anything east of the balkans
>>214400796not important enough
>>214400468Linguistics are a beautiful thing I wish 4chan wasn't retarded
>>214400814You have somewhat of a point i think, muh eurocentricism>>214400819Theyre very important historically, far more than south america or africa
>>214400812Mexicans larp as aztecs thoughever. There are not a lot of Rome fanatics here, mainly because nobody reads
>>214400848You do both and modern Mexico is a marriage between the two heritages.
>>214399494Unitedstatians get so assmad when you remind them that America has always been a continent and and that they just can't change reality with lies
>>214400805Way more than being protestants
>>214400841historically they pale in comparison to asia/china and europei'm not sure why you're even debating this since you use the correct 7 continent model in germany
>>214399778It does mean Americans of any race. I'm Chinese and go to Tijuana regularly to eat, and I get called gringo
>>214400863They try to gaslight us into believing we are from Roman heritage because spaniards think they were the second Rome lmaoHowever, besides catholicism, Mexico is actually more unitedstatian when it comes to culture
>>214400870>america is one continent >europe and asia are two continentspick one my monkey friend
>>214400872>he says in a protestant language

>>214400954>languages can't use words differentSalsa doesn't mean sauce in English either btw.
We go by sudamericano in spanish so i don't know what's the issue with not being known as simply American in English.I wouldn't want to be mistaken for a north American or even a central American as we are very different things and it just creates confusion.
>>214400903>Mexico is actually more unitedstatian when it comes to cultureYeah and guess who we larp as.
>>214400870I dont understand why they get so mad about all of us being Americans. You never see this behavior with Europeans.
>>214400954its our word now brown boi
>>214400974it's mostly brazilians who get butthurt about it, i surmise it is because their country should be the america of latin america but it's basically just a massive failure
>>214400991Not mad just misleading. It's in our name, we were the first of the colonies to separate from Europe so we got dibs. And Unitedstatian sounds stupid.Usonian is fine but nobody will know what that means.

>>214400910You fail to understand that plate tectonics has shit to do with whether a place is a continent or notThe fact that you're even bringing this up just shows how low IQ you are, brown retard
>>214401019Ah I'm not too familiar with Brazilians and how they refer to themselves but save for few occasions in common speak we call ourselves south American but we do not refer to what we English call Americans as such we say Estado Unidense which sounds silly in English but it makes sense to us.
>>214401084>You fail to understand that plate tectonics has shit to do with whether a place is a continent or notcope and seethe macaco, you're on your plate, we're on ours. you're a different continent

We are taught it's The American continent with 3 geographic divisions and 2 cultural divisions (America Latina and Anglosajona)

Americans are our white brethren, so you sudacas better stop annoying them!
>>214401289>Like it or not, you share a lot of history and culture with latin americalmao no we do not, apart from subjugating them to put them in their place. america came from England and was a settler colony, they're the product of mass rape and genocide by moorberiansWe are and created the first world. They're the definition of third world.
>>214401322Good to see north american brothers standing up for each other>>214401327>History = raceWould you be surprised if i told you obsession with race is quite common in latin america as well?Also, if you want to make the "we descend from england" argument, australia and NZ (and arguably even south africa) are american
>>214401327We're a piece of Latam that got plowed over by WASPs. You can see early multiracial communities in Louisiana, New Mexico and Appalachia as old as Jamestown that were setting up to take shape as something resembling a Latin American society but then got trampled and suppressed by Old Stocks on a Manifest Destiny drive.
>>214401407Actual history knower
>>214399494>>214400511they are americans because they live in north america and south americaWhat's so hard to understand you fucking idiot

>The United States of America I wonder the number of "Americas" you can count given that name
>>214401419>>214401479Your own language calls people from the United States Americans (albeit written slightly differently). The German slur for American is "Ami".>>214399577That's all there is to it. You want to be contrarian and try to agree with thirdies to make us mad but your own language proves us correct
>>214401511Executive order to rename it USNA coming soon

We forced you to learn our language and you cuck yourself into abandoning your own websites and language to come here
>>214401526You get called americans because you got first dibs on the name. This doesnt magically make other inhabitants of the continent(s) non-american>>214401532I was just thinking that really. Couldve called themselves washingtonia or something. Also fun fact in the late 1800s there was a proposed amendment to rename the US "United states of earth"If that had passed theyd all go "akshually ur not from earth" now kek>>214401617I am 6 foot 3
>>214401526>That's all there is to it. You want to be contrarian and try to agree with thirdies to make us mad but your own language proves us correctNo, I'm saying that the distinction between Anglo and Latin America is somewhat arbitrary. We've always been a multiracial nation that takes elements from Euro, African and Amerindian cultures, just as every country in the Americas does. White Americans are an anomaly, even within the United States.

>>214401837>Amerimutt That meme is about latin American immigrants in America
>>214401802In europe, "white" isnt a raceThere is the french, german, english etc raceAnd even within those people, there exists racism toward each other (northern english, southern english and such)Im sorry but just having white skin doesnt make you less mutt than your latinx brothersIts the nature of the new world as some other anon said ITT
>>214401850It seems they just really cling to european history, when their ancestors left for a reason>>214401851>>214401873The pure seethe lol
>>214401899That was only true when you were ethnostates Now that it's rapidly going away you're converting to our racial definitions
>>214401526>Your own language calls people from the United States Americans (albeit written slightly differently). The German slur for American is "Ami".and? American being generally used for United States Americans doesn't make it untrue that calling Spanish Americans and Brazilians "Americans" is also correct. We're just using the same word for different things, but the first definition originates from the latter.The only reason US Americans are called Americans is because you never had a name. Spanish Americans used to also call themselves and be called Americans during their revolutions and after, before they developed their own national identities. Mexicans didn't even call themselves Mexicans until the mid 19th century
Why did Mexicans get upset about the Gulf of America name change? Aren't they Americans
>>214401957absolute nuke
>>214401930I have friends all over europe, we still define ourselves by our countries, not by skin colour. believe it or not, 90%+ of people here are still what you'd consider "white"

>>214399494They're not Americans. They're better.
>>214401899>Its the nature of the new world as some other anon said ITTMy point was more that White Americans as a whole are an anomaly on the continent. They're not really mutts, they haven't fully participated in the melting pot, they're a decommisioned eugenics project orchestrated by WASPs. They're neither fully Ameriacn or European but exist in-between the two and feel alienated from both. Their goal was to basically create a new Euro ethnicity but on another continent, which they succeeded at (sort of).
>>214402194Latinx Americxn
>>214402445Thats an interesting view, id have more to say but im really getting too drunk
>>214402469As a whole, the only other group of people they're remotely similar to is Afrikaaners, who struggle similarly as a people between Europe and Africa.
>>214402396That's a false etymology. The origin comes from the word Griego, as in "it's all Greek to me!"You didn't even read the linkhttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gringo
>>214399494Saaaaaaaaaar
columbia is supposed to be the name of the continent as well and yet latinx are fine with colombia existingcurious
>>214402932What's your point? Colombia was a project for the whole of Spanish southern America but it failed. Bolivar wanted to unite the entire continent in one country and pushed for it to be named after the guy who discovered it.
>>214403036the point is obvious retard
>>214399577>old worlders are dumb and inaccuratemore news at 11
>>214403053South Americans are actually not South American because there is a country in South America that is named Colombia?
>>214403247learn english
>>214399588>>everyone else is wrong and only Latinx America is rightYes.I'm sorry the continent wasn't discovered by the English so it would be named New Pennystonshire or something.
>>214403263Why don't you explain it to me like I'm a stupid ESL?
>>214403280>discovered>there were people there
>>214400511Continents are divided arbitrarily.No, digging a trench around you doesn't make it your own new continent.
>>214403310In english, particularly older english, “Columbia” meant the american continent, particularly the usa. that’s why DC, the capital, stands for “district of columbia.” and yet no EFL has ever seethed about colombians calling themselves that.
>>214403310and you’re not “like” a stupid ESL. You ARE a stupid ESL. that’s the second english lesson I’ll give you for free monkey, you want a third you’ll have to pay me
>>214403315Oh yeah nigga, I sure as fuck think entering in contact with people isolated during 20000 years counts as discovering specially taking into account the rest of the fucking world was already contacted.
