Do Americans really think of feather people and not Pajeetas when they hear "Indian"?

I don't, but it probably depends on where you live in terms of demographics, rural/urban etc.

No. Indian usually means dot and Native American feather

Why are Americans so disconnected from the rest of the world

Really depends on context.

I think at this point there are more East Indians than Native Americans though, and natives refer to themselves by different terms, so I think the Asian Indians come to mind first now

Columbus thought this was India and we didn't want to make him sad so we all agreed to play along

Yes.

hot

it requires context because it can be used for both. if it's not clear which someone meant, you ask for clarification

But India is such a major power and big country that of course when you hear Indian you think of India. I'm sure you've met an Indian from India but never a Native American.

nah man i had to read the OP three times before i even got what he was talking about. fetaher injuns are called 'natives' 'goddamn natives' or 'fucking natives.' we don't really have a lot of jeets in the desert

she's cute AF

My current roommate is an Indian (feather not dot).

I pretty much live in an Indian colony, so I think of Indians from India and just call the other ones Native Americans.

>But India is such a major power
Stopped reading there.

They're a regional power, bro. On the same level with France, Japan, and the UK.

Northern Virginia?

lol

India is pretty relevant if you live in Asia actually.

No, unless you live in The Dakotas, Montana, or some parts of Oklahoma you're unlikely to even meet Native Americans

Central NJ.
what's so funny?

it's mostly boomers who call feather people "indians". I refer to them as "chugs"

What do boomers call stinky curry Indians

Pakis.... regardless of whether they are from Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, etc

no its cause "india" was just a term that europeans used to describe asia, and "indian" likewise just mean asian. When he found the west indes Columbus thought he was somewhere between europe and japan (which he was) and he thought the people there were asians (which they are genetically)

I've met quite a few in MN

I have never met an Indian (either kind).

No. Columbus wanted to find a route to India because the Arabs had blocked European trade routes to India which were used for thousands of years since the Roman Empire. And there was no Suez Canal at the time so you literally had to go down from Africa, then cross the Arabian sea. So he thought he could find a shorter route to India.

When he landed in America he was expecting to see ports and ships but instead he saw nothing. He believed he had landed up in a wrong part of India but it quickly dawned on him that it was not India and his soldiers started raping everything they saw.

that's racist

>"india" was just a term that europeans used to describe asia, and "indian" likewise just mean asian
same guy goes nuts when bongs call indians as asians. pick a foot ameritard.

you mean the north region of south jersey don't you

Maybe to yankees. But in the south people still refer to feathers as Indians

Middlesex?

Maybe. You shipped all of your feathers to Oklahoma though and probably don't have any dots outside of Atlanta and the Texas cities so what's the difference?
