Oh right, I've seen that before. It's just a culture/language barrier thing, like pretty much everyone who speaks English uses American for the US, but it's different in a lot of Spanish speaking countries. Funny that it also stems from an anti-American place though. Those folks seem exhausting.
It doesn't necessarily stem from an anti-american thing, it just so happens that a lot of anti-americans just so happen to have picked up that particular linguistic quirk.
