Line 456:
* Many people seem to forget that Canada is part of America. The (possibly ex-)top comment of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xeonqv_c4o0&feature=relmfu this] [[YouTube]] video, for example, is/was "what I've learned from JFL is that Canadians are much kinder than Americans".
** 'American' is normally used as a referent for 'resident of the United States of America', not 'resident of a country part of the North American continent'. By the original trope entry's reasoning, a citzen of Costa Rica would be an 'American'.
* One of the most notorious examples is the co-opting of the word ''Aryan'' by [[Those Wacky Nazis]]. Uh, Adolf, there's some [[Kipling's Finest|Rajputs, Punjabis, and Parsis]] that might wish to discuss the point.
