Get it all out of your systems, guys! ITT, I will only nod appreciatively in quiet empathy, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Go!!

I don't like that we've claimed the term Americans for ourselves - Canadians and Mexicans and Brazillians are all Americans too!

Anti-American is an interesting expression, because the accusation of being anti-nation is used typically in totalitarian societies, for example, the former Soviet Union accused dissidents of being anti-Soviet. But try "anti-Italian" or "anti-Belgian," people in Milan or Brussels would laugh.

That's dumb. You know why?
What about the Peruvians and Paraguaians and Urugaians and Venezuelans and Columbians and Belizeans and Guatemalans and El Salvadorians and Chileans and Argentinians and . . . . .

Americans cannot differentiate between a sentiment against their government and one against their country.
That's mostly because Americans cannot speak or understand any known language.
They cannot, hence, communicate with humans.
