    If someone is going to incorrectly assume I’m an American I’d prefer the term Yank. It sounds better. But iiwii

        It seems a little strained

            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 for example

                I just think it’s a bit strained, it sounds clunky
