Cali is the actual name of the Colombian city. "Cali” is, as @jcb2016_, said, just a ghetto way of saying "California".
In any case, the lack of awareness comes from whoever defaults everything to the USA.

Nice way of going around life just making wild assumptions about everything so your imagination carving for drama gets pleased, but no one is getting remotely offended. Plus you’re wrong, ask any Spanish speaking person where Cali is and they’ll say Colombia.
Illuminate me with your logic then… If I say I’m from Mexico, am I from New Mexico USA since it’s much more recognizable in the broader “English and Spanish speaking culture”? Or am I from Mexico City since it has more residents?
But all righty then, let’s just inherit the Reddit way and dismiss this entire thread (buncho’ offended foreigners looking to get offended, pshh...), and just default every conversation, place, name, and topic to the USA. 👍
