    Mexico City is the largest city in North America. Now if they said US that’s a different story

      I’m curious, where are you from that “American” used on its own doesn’t specifically indicate united-states-of-?

        It’s a stamce on here some people have to dub “American” as belonging to all of North and South America. It’s basically just being anti-US as much of Lemmy is.

      They didn’t say “North American,” they said “American.” Everyone who speaks English understands that “America” on its own is almost always in reference to the USA.
