I think you have a problem:

" you may not have been aware of how arrogant the appropriation of this term for a single nationality comes across to the Rest of Us in these lands, my fellow americano, but it does and it always has "

you will need to deal with this and recognize it as a problem to be faced. You actively practice emotional apartheid, or apartness

First of all, you live in Canada

Second of all everbody on this thread comes NOT from the United States but we are all part of it.

In a typical school , at least typical for me, you have children of Indians, Ghanians, Jamaicans, Scots, Russians, British, Eastern Europeans, Chinese, Phillipinos, and Japanese. And these kids came from parents who are from those places. And everbody thinks of themselves as Americans.
There are catholics, moslems, orthodox, presbyterians, jews, atheists, buddhists among them. And everybody thinks American and speaks english
