Can't anybody pretty much be an American since most of the world has been Americanized?

can't anybody pretty much be an American since most of the world has been Americanized through internet and movies?

Sorry as it does not work that way... The world has been greatly influenced by Great Satan, yes but they are not American. You do realize, if you travel you will, that most of the world is very conservative in their Values. And at least 50% of the world hold the view that America has a negative global influence to the point of being parallel with Satan... Well, now you do know... It is much tougher than you would imagine for an American to get around let's say Central and SE Asia without encountering Bias. We are rarely welcomed... and when the Dollar is no longer World Standard..."get the F-out will be the reaction."

great satan?

[Guy13]

Yes. This is a term that other countries use instead of America or USA...

No it’s not. I’ve travelled across the world and never heard anyone call the US that. The US is a very conservative country.

Dude, I work in three timezone including 11-12, 9 encompassing all of Asia and part of the Middle East. I am certain you have not traveled outside the West with that comment... Europe is as bad as America. I'll go as far as to say you are a bald face liar... as it relates to traveling !!!

[jjj101010]

I’ve been to Europe, North America, Africa, Asia and Australasia.

Not really. Oh, they know our accents, and have a vague idea of our culture, but actually accepting and embracing those values is a much dicier proposition. Hell, look at how a place as similar as Canada struggles with it.

An American is an American citizen.

Not by that theory, no.
