I am friends with and work with several Colombians. One of my co-workers who I spend time with outside of work is married to a Colombian.

I've never heard any of them mention this.

Got no beef with Colombia, but they have requested $344 million in foreign assistance for 2020. Along with that comes the right for us to refer to ourselves as big A America, and them whatever the hell we want.

If the Americas are only 1 of 5 continents, then there would be 4 others. What other continent from Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia & Antarctica do "they" not count?

what the frick does that have to do with anything? If your seven continent learning is employed, you´ve got two Americas. What is your point?

Heard this before from a Central American, "We're American too". But I also think the OP is lying. Colombians really don't give a
rats Culo about being American. They are proud to be Colombian.

I dated a Colombian chick for a bit and never heard this. She always introduced me as her American boyfriend.

Columbians are good folks. They all aren’t Pablo Escobar.

Consider the source of the OP:

I can confirm that Canadians don't say "oh you're from America?". They say we're from "the states" for similar reason that were both North Americans.
