I don't dislike US-Americans. Very far from it.
Most US-Americans that I have encountered (both abroad and stateside) are a lovely bunch, great tippers, and have a distinct happy-go-lucky attitude that is hard to find anywhere else.
The crux: When a place gets popular with a certain tourist demographic (through Instagram, Tiktok, whatever) there is an inflection point where the place / experience starts to become commodified, expensive, and bad.
Similar to an influx of large amounts VC money in that niche community app that you used to love.

- kelnos 3y ago> US-Americans You can just say "Americans". It's a well-recognized demonym, everyone knows what it means, and no one is going to be confused and think you mean someone from one of the many other countries in North or South America. And it's not some sort of "injustice" that the US "stole" the term American to refer to solely themselves. It's just... not a big deal.
