“American”

  • December 21, 2022, 3:01pm

Americans are from The United States of America. Period. This refers to the COUNTRY of birth or citizenship-not to the CONTINENT of same. It's a very simple concept,& it's not about Americans being lazy or entitled- it's simply a fact. There are many different countries in The Americas,& many different cultures living in each country(the USA most definitely in particular), but only residents of the USA are AMERICAN. Notice the country's name: United States of America.
This is not a tough concept folks...
