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.
Well, I just began using ‘North’ added to American so that at least it was a tiny bit closer to factual. USonian is such an awkward name. I am not opposed to accuracy, though. Ya can’t please everyone, so it is a waste of time to try too hard. Besides, who owns language? No one. It is fluid.
