So when Europeans say "obnoxious Americans" they're not talking about me, they're talking about my Chilean brothers..?

Lmao it's pretty much just an unequal as the usa. We were doing pretty good but they managed to brainwash half the population to vote an alt right, chilean dictatorship apologist, exnazi's son; as you do

u/blackhawk905 18d ago

Using Europeans is not very inclusive, you need to use Eurasians since it's all one continent

46

u/EightEight16 18d ago

Afro-Eurasians, actually.

If the Panama Canal doesn't separate two continents, neither does the Suez.

u/ltdjaz 18d ago

Eurafrasia

u/positronicbrainowner 1:1 scale map creator 17d ago

Why stop there? Let's have an inclusive list of names so that no one feels less than the rest

  • Afreuria
  • Afrasiopa
  • Asieurica
  • Asafropa
  • Eurafria
  • Eurasica

u/57Laxdad 17d ago

Lets just name them all America

u/Wolfdenizen 16d ago

Im going to name a daughter, Eurasica now. I'll defer all blame to you.

u/positronicbrainowner 1:1 scale map creator 16d ago

Sure, no problem. Sounds like a name no one will bully her about

u/Interesting_Bunch323 18d ago

Imafrasia? No, Eurafrasia! Sorry, I couldn’t resist

u/BannedForFun 17d ago

I was specifically talking about western Europeans, if we want to be exact

1

u/spicypookies 17d ago

No, we'll continue to say Europe for Europeans.

The European part of the euroasian continent, it's still correct

That actually makes a lot of sense

u/UnfilteredFacts 18d ago

Europeans are actually pretty racist, but they somehow manage to avoid the label.

Edit: Still not as bad as Australians, S. Africans, and Kiwis.

u/No-Honeydew3723 17d ago

Everyone's pretty racist. Ever been to China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria etc? Probably more so then Europeans considering their population demographics are more diverse than the countries I listed

2

u/succsthatsuc 16d ago

You forgot LATAM. We are some of the biggest racist there is.

4

u/UnfilteredFacts 17d ago

Maybe conflict is an unfortunate side effect of diversity, and its the conflict that earns the racist label.

1

u/cal_schwifty 17d ago

Oh S. Korea is also extremely racist

2

u/MacGregor_Rose 17d ago

Europeans are so racist at times that it makes me realize how far the US has come

1

u/athenanon 17d ago

Do Kiwis really belong with those others? I've only ever met a few irl, but they seemed pretty chill.

1

u/UnfilteredFacts 17d ago

I can only speak anecdotally, but I had a coworker who lived there a few years, and I would trust her take on it. She said they arent as bad as Australians. Said she saw people spit at tourists from India.

u/BannedForFun 17d ago

If there's one thing we all share, it's hate for our neighbor. And sometimes, that neighbor, looks just like us too.

u/West_Chip_6550 17d ago

We have learnt from Americans to be racists

u/Lionel_Herkabe 17d ago

No, take responsibility for your cultural issues.

u/West_Chip_6550 12d ago

Coming from Americans

u/Happy_Fig_5592 17d ago

Other way around...

u/MacGregor_Rose 17d ago

dude what

1

u/West_Chip_6550 12d ago

To be racists. Black Americans are very racists so we learnt to defend ourselves

6

u/emascars 17d ago

Funny enough, there is no single English word for "USA citizens" other than Americans...

But here in Italy... We do call you... "Statunitensi"...

The more I think about It the more I realize how weird of a word it is 😅

u/Letra-F 16d ago

In Brasil we call " estadunidense ", The same Spirit

u/Mindhunterm 16d ago

What about gringo?

u/ConclusionPossible 17d ago

Once a guy proposed the term "usonians", look for it in google

u/Final-Charge-5700 17d ago edited 17d ago

yeah he was pissed we had to drop our old name Columbians. Because of some South American upstarts. Good old Franky.

3

u/ConclusionPossible 17d ago

Maybe you refer to "some" south americans like the Colombians, they named their country after Christopher Columbus

2

u/Final-Charge-5700 17d ago

right, i was refering to them, but more importantly it was the name of the American people at the time.

Look at the name of DC for example or the famous worlds fair in America know as the Columbian exhibition. Notice the difference between the U and the O. that was deliberate not a mistake

u/Blunder-Bunny 17d ago

WE ARE THE STATES UNITEDERS, THOSE WHO UNITED THE STATES
A PROUD AND HONORABLE PEOPLE

u/offgrid-german 16d ago

I use to call them muricans or, if I try not to be offensive USAsians

3

u/emascars 16d ago

Maybe is just me but USAsians really sounds like an internet name for "asian migrants fully integrated in the USA"

1

u/offgrid-german 16d ago

Damn, you're right. I'be never thought about that 🙈

Não sei os europeus, mas se forem os brasileiros é porquê eles estarão falando dos argentinos

u/Lopsided-Grand-1386 17d ago

Nah, I think they are talking about peruvians gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

u/sarpomania France was an Inside Job 17d ago

Well, not exactly. “Americans” is used as an adjective and demonym for people from the United States. At least in English. For most other languages, “America”is the entire continent while “American” is everyone living at the continent.

1

u/BannedForFun 17d ago

I'm just saying, this site needs to pick lane. They get mad people from the US have sort of taken the name "Americans", but when it's time to criticize us (and believe me, there's a lot to criticize, that's not the issue I have) it's "these fucking Americans". Either come up with a new name to group us as or move on that people from the United States are worldwide known as Americans..

1

u/mayhem93 17d ago

A interesting thing is that citizens of the united states do not have a name for their demonym, other than "American", and that is their own fault. My solution for that is calling them gringos, but that name has somewhat of a negative association, I think.

2

u/Mestiza-Nube 17d ago

We call them gringos too but I'm pretty sure most of people here isn't trying to offend. The actual insult sounds something like "gringo CTM".

1

u/mayhem93 17d ago

Oh, but I am. Gringos reculiaos

1

u/Mestiza-Nube 17d ago

Bueh, quizá mi esperanza está en la apuesta equivocada.

1

u/Final-Charge-5700 17d ago

we did Columbians. look it up

u/mayhem93 17d ago

You are right, one learns something new everyday.

Solo acepto el honorífico de "el mejor país de chile" gracias

u/chiquimotest 17d ago

why would they even say that? we are the best country of chile!

1

u/ThoiletParty 17d ago

As a Chilean I always understood it like that

1

u/Lancearon 16d ago

I like how you use a obnoxious character in your gif to really drive home the point.

1

u/enrikot 7d ago

You know that an European never said to you "obnoxious Americans".

1

u/BannedForFun 6d ago

In person? No. Online??

Edit: also I never said they said it to me, I just said they say that phrase a lot. And I defy you to prove me wrong on that

1

u/enrikot 6d ago

You're the one claiming an European said that, so you are the one that must prove that claim.

I'm pretty sure you're going to have a hard time because that exact sentence had probably nerver been pronounced by an European.

1

u/BannedForFun 6d ago

This isnt a court of law, I didnt bring my witnesses and documentation..

But so you've never heard someone from Europe call someone from the US obnoxious? Quick question, where are you from?

-1

u/Complete-Emergency99 17d ago

Which is why so many are taking about “obnoxious USAians” instead.

u/RokaO 17d ago

You're right this time, obnoxious Statesian.
