Americanism 

An Americanism is a word, phrase or expression, commonly used in the United States, that has managed to escape from America to pollute the wider English language.
Each Americanism subverts the integrity of the English language.
Americanism by AKACroatalin June 9, 2015
Excessive and jingoistic American patriotism. Believing that America is not just the greatest nation on earth, that those who don't share your rabid, short-sighted, patrio-erotic feelings are traitors and should be deported or shot (preferably both). Toby Keith and his fans are most-often associated with the Amerigasm. People most likely to experience an Amerigasm are those who believe President Bush is the 2nd coming of Christ, who believe the US is infalable, and that any problem can be solved by shooting at it. The previous list of people are most likely to include members of the NRA, the Republican party and viewers of Fox News.
Listening to Toby Keith's song "Courtesy of the Red, White, & Blue (The Angry American)" gave me an Amerigasm.

Americanism 

Any American-ized word or phrase, such as changing the spelling of words to sound as they mis-pronounce them, using 4 syllables or words where 1 would have sufficed, or inventing a new word or phrase because it sounds nicer (most commonly heard whenever they are 'fighting for peace' again).
Color, Armor, Boro, Aluminum, Leftenant (??), putting Z's instead of S's in words, or using clunky acronyms because they make a meaningful word (Arrogant American Alliance with Rightwing Goverments against Hope!, or Aaargh!)

Weapons Of Mass Destruction (Nukes), The Road Map (Plan), Freedom Fighters (terrorists we like), Terrorists (anyone we don't), Terrorist Suspect (anyone), Liberating <insert name of latest militarily inferior country that has weapons we supplied and something we want> in the Name of Peace and Democracy (slaughter and pillage <name>), Anti-American (anyone who disagrees), Anti-American Activist (anyone that tries to stop us), Our Friends and Allies in Europe (anyone with nukes), 9/11 (oops, apparently having nukes doesn't make you immune to retaliation), Pulling Together in the War for Democracy! (so c'mon England, lets make some NEW enemies!).
