It's not about feeling superior. Every Argentinian I have met has been genuinely butthurt about people from the US in their view co-opting the word American. I think it's rooted in the aforementioned misunderstanding, but they are genuinely butthurt. People this emotionally invested in something aren't going to just change their minds from a single wall of text from a stranger on the internet, if anything they're likely to get more entrenched. That's just human nature and I don't mind. I mostly wrote the comment so others would understand what the debate is about.
Fair enough, I suppose that you cannot rationally talk someone out of being butthurt about something.
