    I use the same metric and use the English pronunciation of words as an American.l, because they’re correct and we are wrong.

    I’m considered a hipster douche for it.

    Others are correct to say so.

        Yeah but what the Brits eventually chose should go.

        The only other option is to bomb the UK into oblivion and change the language’s name to American, and I’m a pacifist, so I’d rather just say it the correct way as the owners dictate without murdering them and declaring the language ours now.

          You can have different dialects in the same language. American English is a dialect of English that is different from British English.

            Just like Coca Cola and generic off brand garbage cola!

            They’re equally… pfff… valid soft drinks!
