Leading in economic wealth, military assets, and soft power but still not a superpower to some?

Gotta love the morons trying to be pedantic but being entirely wrong in the process.

"America is a continent, not a country. Plus, an American is from the continent of America. "

How can someone be wrong on so many levels in two sentences while having "Captain America" as their username?

Plus foreigners modify the two names all the time when insulting citizens from the United States. Amerimutt, ‘Murica, Amerikkkan, Americ$nt, etc.

Gotta do what they can to try to deflect from how they are all obsessed with us.

While using technology that we developed.

For all their hate and insults, we live rent-free in their minds at all times.

Also, it must really sting to find out how little they matter to us.

Pakistanis are actually Indians and a part of India as Pakistan is a part of the Indian sub continent. Ireland is a part of the British isles therefore making Irish people actually English and British. Europeans are actually Eurasian as the Europe isn’t really its own continent but a part of the Eurasian continent. Some siberians are actually American because a good bit of Siberia is part of the North American plate, there is two continents in Africa because of the two continents as there is both an African and an Somali plate. New Zealand is actually part of Australia as it is on the Australian plate. I can do this all day with stupid and logical examples.

It's almost like these are stupid and intentionally ignore the actual points of demarcation.....

But I'm just a stupid American. How could I possibly understand basic concepts like national borders, the actual names of countries and continents, and collective naming conventions?
