What would you call the insulting hysteria that occurs when an English speaker doesn't change his language and culture to use some foreign-language word for a place?

You'll notice no one goes around demanding a billion Chinese change from 'Měiguó' to the 'USA'. Hell, even the Germans get away with calling 'Beijing' Peking.

Its just the poor, down-drodden Anglos. :)

We do it all the time in the USA too... "This is America! Here we speak English!"

There is no "poor Anglos", we are cultural assholes too
