Language can be powerful in shaping ideas and the US has convinced the entire world that they are the “Americans” and everybody else on the 2 continents aren’t.

    I try where suitable to use the term ‘US citizens’ but USians sounds stupid.

    Bottom line is, it’s locked in, we know what’s meant by ‘Americans’ and it does make both verbal and practical sense.
