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.

    Yeah, the same happens here, for example instead of “mercadotecnia” we say “marketing”, instread of “transmision” we say “streaming”, and so on and so fucking on. It’ fucking depressing and shitty.

    And yeah, your English is okay, I’d recommend you DeepL for a translator, it works almost flawlessly.
