@duckevara@ferald_gord If America refers to all of North & South America, then why was Canada & Latin America and even some in Neo Islamia Europe so upset at the renaming of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America?
By their logic, if America refers to all of North America & South America, its a good change
@duckevara@ferald_gord Taiwan cab driver: "Welcome to Taiwan, where are you from?"
Latin American tourist: "America"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "Oh Where? New York? LA?... Ohio?"
Latin tourist: "Ecuador"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "That's a different country! That's not America! That's in South America! Hahaha!"
@rodrigobhzz@southevropa@ChrisLaubAI Besides, If America refers to all of North & South America, then why was Canada & Latin America so upset at the renaming of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America?
By their logic, if indeed America refers to all of North America & South America, they should be happy with name change
@rodrigobhzz@southevropa@ChrisLaubAI Taiwan cab driver: "Welcome to Taiwan, where are you from?"
Latin American tourist: "America"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "Oh Where? New York? LA?."
Latin tourist: "Boliva"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "That's a different country! That's not America! That's in South America! Hahaha!"
No different than people call Europe"Neo Islamia"
Also, East Asia Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa are still going to use "America" to refer to country of Hollywood and New York
And there's nothing Latin America can do to change that.
Brazilians are the only ppl I know who call US citizens “United Statesians” instead of just calling them Americans.
I’m gonna start using that word on my best friends as rage bait
@MeathGuerilla Taiwan cab driver: "Welcome to Taiwan, where are you from?"
Latin American tourist: "America"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "Oh Where? New York? LA?"
Latin tourist: "Peru"
Taiwan Cab Driver: "That's a different country! That's not America! That's in South America! Hahaha!"
@MeathGuerilla In Asia Africa Muslim World and most of Europe "America" is synonymous with "United States"
United States is more convoluted to say in many languages
And there's nothing Latin America or Canada can do about that. They don't have economic military or cultural clout to change it
@ALongHardDay@RandomHvacGuy Modern Singapore Tokyo Seoul Osaka Kyoto Taipei outclass every single modern Western civilization majority city.
But the West can make their major cities better. Cleaning up graffiti & pollution, safer cities, & investing in restoration. But to do that is going to take money.
@ALongHardDay@RandomHvacGuy How much more US tax dollars is wasted via welfare fraud?
Hilarious how the Western leftism religion gets mad when tax dollars are used their disgusting western cities get cleaned up but don't care when the same tax dollars are wasted in welfare fraud
@GlamLiw@RandomHvacGuy Knowing how awful and dirty DC is, 3 million probably wasn't enough money
Also hilarious how the Western leftism religion gets mad about this instead of the rampant welfare fraud wasting tax payer money in places like California and Minneapolis
@send_no_help@RandomHvacGuy Because European settlers established America?
Again the Western Leftism religion doesn't understand the difference between settlers & immigrants
Settlers build a country. Created them from untamed unorganized wilderness.
Immigrants go to established countries/society
