@BowsacNoodle @Griffith @sickburnbro @mischievoustomato I imagine americana will still exist, but aesthetics are the least of my concern. It's like saying "Italians aren't short fat mafiosas, the Sicilians just ruined their image" when Italian as a national identity is nebulous. They have Lombards, Ligurians, Venetians, Florentines, Romans, and everyone in between.
Generally the people who willingly brand themselves as american have little in common with my values. I'd rather look for the Appalacian Warriors, the Wild West Cowboys, the New England Whigs, and the Southern Rebels. They are my brothers, not "Americans."
