@tstcikhthys I realize that is a Cultural Marxist talking point, but no other country is defined as "American" except the US. One can be a resident or a citizen of any Central American or South American country & be located in the "Americas", but one's identity is in the individual country that they are a citizen of. So, someone from Chile has an identity of being Chilean, not being "American". Yes, they are located in South America and realize they are in South America.
Even in Mexico, which is in North America, refers to Canadians and people from the US as being "Norte Americanos", so they are associating that they aren't Americans even though they are technically North Americans. Btw, Canadians only refer to themselves as being from Canada, not as being North Americans.
I live in Central America and travel throughout SA, by comparison they aren't doing anywhere close to my primary home in the US. Many people from Europe and the US make their money remotely, so they don't connect with how hard locals work in these country. I could write a couple of books on how different life is down here, I have a more positive view of the US the longer I am away from it.

@tstcikhthys We are from different generations, you are likely from the generation that believes that "telling their truth" is a fact, it isn't. One's feelings do not qualify as facts. If a man chooses to identify as a woman, he is still a man, his belief system does not change his biology. We have men who claim they are women who have all their genitalia intact but are being imprisoned with the female population & raping fellow female inmates. This has happened in Scotland as well as in the US.
Frankly the only people that can identify as African-American would be an individual born in Africa and then becomes a citizen of the US. I'm a bi-racial person myself (my grandmother was a Black African) but that doesn't make me an African-American. I was born in the US, that is my nationhood. I do have ancestral descent from an African country and regardless of my skin tone, I'm an American. I also have European heritage from the Czech Republic, but I don't go around saying I'm a Czech-American.
When people born in the US claim that they are Irish that is incorrect, in fact, it puzzles people from Ireland that people from the US identifies as such. One may have ancestral links to another country, but that does not confer a national identity. Of course, if one becomes a citizen to a country, then that is another matter.
Now we get back to national identity, the only country that can be identified as American is the United States of America. It is the only country in the Americas that has the name of the country America in the name of the country. Yes, one can acknowledge what continent they reside in, but that doesn't mean that is a National Identity.
I do realize the goal with Globalists is that they want to do away with any notion of nationhood. We see this quite clearly with the European Union. Countries like Hungary and Italy have pushed back on certain agendas of the EU. Recently, Italy declared that only biological women can participate in the Miss Italy Beauty contest, the EU has been in opposition to this. The current Miss Netherlands is a transgender man, so this all part of the social engineering.
Go on Book Tube on You Tube, there are book channels dedicated to Canadian literature. The literature from Canada is not referred to as North American literature, it is referred to as Canadian literature. The same is true with films from a given country. Films from the US are referred to as American films, this is how it is referred to throughout the world. The actor Ryan Reynolds is a Canadian actor, he is not referred to as a North American actor.
