    Not going around assuming stuff about people is sorta just basic good manners. It’s 2025 my friend. You put youself in some pretty interesting company by demanding to be allowed to assume stuff about people. Smdh.

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

              calling themselves american and not being able to call myself american is what strains me. i tought you were against us-centrism…

                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
