    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

            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.
