        Bah! Use a particular state if you know it. Otherwise American serves as well as European.

            I only learned this exist like this: interested in naval warfare -> there was a battleship named USS Vermont -> US battleships were named after states -> so there must be a state like that -> never heard about it before -> must be a shithole

      I prefer usonian, but ppl seem to hate that even worse. Much shorter than saying “US citizen”, and also not going along with the US cooption of the term america.

        Usonian evokes that weird Frank Lloyd Wright concept of kitschy suburbia that the US could do with substantially less of.
