What if they’re incontinent?
Comment on Why do they call it a corn maze and not a maize maze?

You know the only continent humans are native to is Africa, right?
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.

You should ask Native Americans about that

They don’t call themselves that, they call themselves by their individual tribe names…
They’re not one bulk people.

You’re right, as a group of people they prefer the term American Indian, but I’m not going to go and say “your should ask the Indians about that” because that sounds as stupid as whatever your argument is.
Which was I think about using “native” instead of “indiginous”, which are literally synonyms in the context.
