Default Why do we call the US America?

The continent the Unites States of America resides within is called America.

North, South, Central AMERICA


When we call the USA America we disregard every other country in the Americas.

It is dismissive, privileged and probably racist as well.

People in many other countries in the Americas hate the US for this reason alone.

Why do we insist on this?
