I understand some people may not even realize it’s a word that puts yankees before all the rest of America, or that English didn’t have a better word like Spanish (Estadounidense) and other languages do, but I feel that since this is a pretty big community and one where the word will be out there a lot could be an opportunity to help spread a better word that does not minimizes a lot of oppressed people.
I’m not sure how I feel about actively enforcing a rule like that, but I’d certainly support encouraging people to make the distinction.
Admittedly, I use “Americans” for US citizens a lot too just out of habit, I probably shouldn’t.
I like to use gringo
Fair, I too use that or yanqui but those are pejorative words, whereas Usonian is neutral.
