      If someone is going to incorrectly assume I’m an American I’d prefer the term Yank. It sounds better. But iiwii

            calling themselves american and not being able to call myself american is what strains me. i tought you were against us-centrism…

              I’m against that in general and against US defaultism more specifically, which is assuming everyone is American. I just think the particular term is strained. Yank is much better for example

                usian is fine. it even sounds similar to what we call them in my country.
