It's only polite to call people what they want to be called. USian is not highly favored or known within the US and can be seen as spitting on a term Americans didn't even give themselves. It is rather unusual in this day and age for people to go about changing what people call themselves in their own language (estadosunidense has long been popular in Spanish, which makes the term even more aggravating for some).

'Murica in particular has connotations of rural, uneducated, conservative Americans so it stands to reason that the average American would prefer not to have their country called such.

[wauwy]

lol stop. No American with two braincells to rub together gives as fuck about "Murica." It's self-deprecating and fun.

My personal favorite is "Amerifats"

[mekkio]

So, you speak for everyone. Sorry, I didn't get that memo.

[chardmonster]

That's more or less a nonargument. Yay.

The main problem here is that the name US-Americans gave themselves (that being "Americans") has really fucked up connotations.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, how dare they hold on to a name for over two centuries. A name someone else gave them. The nerve of them.

nayrt

I didn't realize there was a problem with being called the United States of America. Since they are states which are united and are in North America. I mean, I really wouldn't have a problem if Canada had been called the United Provinces and Territories of America (Even Québec), because hey, that's exactly what we are. Personally, I've always found "America" pretty self centred, but then, look who we're talking about.

Yes, we always continue to do problematic things because we've done them for a long time. That is the reasoning we should follow, and I bow to your superb intelligence.

Or we could agree that calling the citizens of a single country on two continents by the identifier that also denotes anyone else from those continents with the firm expectation that people will know who we mean is really fucked up and stop doing it. US-American. Say it with me, it's not hard.
