"US citizen" = harmful language preferred nomenclature is "oppressor and holder of un-earned US passport privilege" |

Stanford? Didn't he make his fortune on the back of oriental slaves building his railroad?
|

People should stop using Central and South America and just refer to them as shitholes.
|
|
I’m America hurtful language is protected language.
These people can eat shit and die. |
|
|
US citizen is hurtful because that assumes that all states are unified.
|
|
The implication that 'American' implies the US is the most important country in the Americas is an internal bias. Maybe the bigots that work at Stanford should look inward, rather than telling the rest of us how awful our language is.
...or maybe Canada, Mexico, Argentina, or Brazil can stop sucking and take the 'crown' from us. :D |
|
So, illegals will need to stop using "El Norte" because that makes Ol' Mejico and America's Hat cry?
|
|
Can I call them Stanford Motherfuckers? Because that is what they are!
|
|
LOL, I remember being told this by my Marxist school teachers in the Bay Area back in the 1990s. Knew it was bullshit back then.
|
|
I think Stanford should change its name because of it's founder's racist past.
|

To find out how this sort of BS is based in anti-white racial hate ask these same dipshits how they feel about the term "African American"? And if they still plan on using it. Africa is a broad geographical term and their use of it always excludes tens of millions of non blacks there.
Why any American spends good money to send their kids to these hate filled places full of the dumbest people in the world is beyond me. |
|
No other country in the Western Hemisphere uses the "American" term.
I've occasionally seen the term "norteamericano" (Spanish for 'North American') used to refer to Americans or Canadians. |
|
Fuck Stanford. You'd have to be a moron to send your child there for indoctrination.
|
|
Doesn't that term imply segregation and bigotry against non-citizens?
|
|
What other nation on earth has 'America' in its actual NAME?
LOL, Stanford. |
|
Some extranjeros do see it as offensive.
In Spanish you could also say Unitedstatesian, but Mexico is also the "United States". Name one other country with "America" in the name. They're the only ones who would be confused for Murica. |
|
I'm an AMERICAN.
Stanford can fuck right off. If anyone actually finds that "offensive", GOOD. Fuck them too. |

Quoted: The floppy headed Canadians on the border got pissy when I told them merican when they asked nationality, and that was a long time ago. Really butt hurt about it too. I laughed. View Quote Back in my ICQ days I ran across a lot of Brits, Kiwis, and Aussies. When introducing me to one of their friends, that person would invariably ask me if I’m Canadian. After this happened a few times I asked why. I was told it was because Americans don’t sperg out when asked if they are Canadian, while canucks get really butthurt if you even imply they are Americans. It’s a great way to trigger them when they get full of themselves. |

As an American, I agree with everyone that this is just more stupid BS. I also feel like we need to answer the important question, WTF are we going to call American cheese now?
"US Citizen" cheese sounds as stupid as a Stanford spokesman. |

Quoted: No other country in the Western Hemisphere uses the "American" term. I've occasionally seen the term "norteamericano" (Spanish for 'North American') used to refer to Americans or Canadians. View Quote Yep. I asked my brother-in-law, who is from Argentina. He says "Americano" means someone from the US, not the continent(s). |

Quoted: “[‘American’] often refers to people from the United States only, thereby insinuating that the US is the most important country in the Americas,”..... View Quote Uhh, The United States IS the most important country in the Americas. I don't give a shit about any of the other ones. |

Quoted: Now they re canceling Eddie Murphy? http://a1.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Video/9d/30/fa/mzi.yqojlils.jpg View Quote And James Brown. If you can cancel a dead guy? James Brown - Living in America |

Here, check this language out: You will be made to suck my dirty, sweaty, bloody asshole; you leftist fucker...
|
|
I am not merely American. American AF is my preferred citizenship. You will respect my demands and henceforth refer to me as such...unless you are some sort of bigot.

"Stanford University" is offensive, we should use "bullshit school for bullshit people with bullshit ideas".

Quoted: Stanford releases guide against ‘harmful language’ — including the word ‘American’ Stanford University released a guide this week on “harmful” language that it wants to remove from its online properties — noting that the term “American” is a no-go. The language guide, which was published Monday, aims to “eliminate many forms of harmful language, including racist, violent, and biased … language in Stanford websites and code.” Launched in May, the project, known as the Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative (EHLI), lists the prohibited terms under 10 categories including racism, homophobia and ableism. Under a section titled “Imprecise Language,” the guide advises readers to replace the term “American” with “U.S. citizen.” “[‘American’] often refers to people from the United States only, thereby insinuating that the US is the most important country in the Americas,” the packet reasons, noting that the region actually includes 42 countries between North and South America. https://nypost.com/2022/12/20/stanford-releases-guide-against-harmful-language-including-term-american/ View Quote cool. more ammo for me to offend the easily butthurt. Lock N Load. |

There was no such thing as a US Citizen prior to the 14th amendment
|
|
Anyone who finds the name American offensive is most likely a commie or socialists.
If indeed you find America/American offensive the most CoC thing I can say is I DON'T CARE !!!!! |
|
As they say- when life is just too damned easy for everyone, people make up the most ridiculous stuff to be offended over.
It isn’t just that hard times are coming, it is that in fact we NEED them. |
|
I'm not getting lectured by people who have never lived in the real world.
|
|
United States is also offensive you should just use 'citizen'.
