Fortunately no one will ever care what any south American nation thinks so it doesn't really matter all that much. When learning Spanish you learn Estadounidense for American but here in Florida I always use Americano because we're in America and gently caress that bullshit.

Joke's on them, a United Statesien calling themselves an American doesn't preclude other Americans from doing the same.

Anything south of Mexico is beneath notice and that's just because Mexico is a convenient scapegoat

I got in an argument with an angry Ecuadorian about this and I said everyone in Europe calls us Americans too, but unfortunately the nearest European was from the one country (Spain) that would be most likely to agree with him and I got owned.

Some Canadians may find it irritating in an academic sense, but most Latin Americans actually identify as Americans because they speak incorrect languages so it's more personal to them.
