    I mean, if you looked at my post history to see I was born in South America you’d have seen that I refer to myself as an American, like from the US.

    That being said, using words incorrectly like “nationalist,” especially “nationalist South American,” which according to your fee-fees is a continent, not a nation, just goes to prove the point I made.

    Also “colonial.” You’re just throwing buzzwords without understanding them, or rather, you’re just throwing words without understanding them.

    I was clearly being snarky about it, language is ever flowing, changing, and contradicting itself with words such as ‘napron’ into ‘apron,’ ‘metaphorically’ into ‘literally,’ or the thousands of borrowed words that mean what they are like ‘hound dog’ and ‘chai tea.’

    How about you stop being so blindly sensitive to someone making a sensible point about the only language you know and maybe laugh at yourself a little.

    When someone says it’s stupid that in Spanish cars are male and clouds are female I don’t clutch my pearls, I laugh and agree that it’s stupid.
