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
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? sounds a bit performative.
it’s like its what you want to be, just not called out on it.

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?

Wouldn’t someone making that assumption bother you?
