Regarding use of the word 'Indian', here in WA State a lot of the tribes refer to themselves as Indians. It's weird, because obviously India has nothing to do with Native Americans and Columbus was a dipshit, but the name stuck and now a lot of tribes call themselves Indians on their webpages. Examples: Spokane Tribe of Indians - https://spokanetribe.com/ Nisqually Tribe of Indians - http://www.nisqually-nsn.gov/ Yakama Indian Nation -https://npaihb.org/member-tribes/yakama-indian-nation/ Quinault Indian Nation I could go on, about 35% of the federally and state recognized tribal entities refer to themselves as Indians. WA State's relationship with native people is interesting too. Obviously historically genocidal, starting in the 1960s however the native people ended up making massive gains in having their sovereignty and treaty rights affirmed by the supreme court. Now native people have the right to fish about 50% of the salmon the state produces, and receive state funding to produce salmon, as well as to harvest shellfish literally anywhere that it isn't being intentionally cultivated. A lot of people get really pissy that the <1% of the population which officially belongs to tribes gets 50% of the fish, but A) They're clowns and B) The native people play a massively oversized role in the production of the fish in the first place. Not perfect by any means, but definitely one of the better state-native paradigms you'll see in the USA

Yeah i understand. However, much like using the word Gypsy or Roma, some groups find it offensive while others don't. So unless talking about a specific group that does use the term, we simply don't use it
