      On the one hand, love

      On the other, I’m an American by way of birth lottery and hate borders. Comrade for me!

        Way I see it, “Comrade” is a term of endearment, like “mate” or “dude” or whatever.

        Whereas “Citizen” is a honorific. An ungendered stand-in for “sir/madam”.

          “Camarada”. While the majority of spanish words ending in -a are considered feminine, camarada is the exception. It has no gramatical gender and can be used with whichever article you want. “Un camarada”, “una camarada” = a comrade

    “Awesome Human” also works!

    Doesn’t matter how the stranger IDs, they’re human, and who doesn’t like to be considered awesome.
