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.
I just think it’s a bit strained, it sounds clunky
not to me. maybe to english speakers? i don’t mind either way. 😉
I’m not a native English speaker, if that’s what you mean
so why are you bothered with it if you are not a native speaker, nor usian?
Wouldn’t you be bothered if I incorrectly assumer you were a Yank?
wait a second. so you are bothered by being called usian for having usian opinions, but every single other form of us-centrism is ok?
it’s like its what you want to be, just not called out on it.
