Because America is incredibly diverse, so saying your American is virtually meaningless in terms of your culture and values.
Wow I didn't know that. I'm from a very homogeneous country, India. This concept of diversity is unfamiliar to me.
/s
And Indians tend to refer to themselves as Bengali, Tamil, Telegu, etc...
So why is Americans giving a more culturally specific title at times confusing to you?
They sound like a bratty teenager. If we're taking their comments at face value, they probably get a lot of praise from their friends with cheap digs at America even if the same problems exist in their own culture.
Lmao ok. Texan '''Irish''' and Californian '''Italian''' have stronger links to their '''Irish''' and '''Italian''' roots. Sure.
Many do.
