Contrarianism in a nutshell.

You’re not smart, you’re just a hipster.

Brother, if u wanna trip, just trip.

No need for claiming some greater spiritual end goal or some shit.

“Gotta catch em all”

What annoys me is the assumption that socialism or communism would fix all of our problems and noone would ever do or feel something bad again.

strict pronounciation rules german

Nah, this aint it. Finnish has strict pronounciation rules but German is pretty loose.

Mate, english is my second language too and this is not that confusing.

Singular they/them has been here for hundreds of years and using it as a gender neutral alternative to she/her and he/him isnt shit, its part of the english language.

“Westoids” opinion discarded.

You guys really removed that?

And how where they broken by Ukraine?

Russia invade inspite of not just agreements, actual treaties, which guarantee Ukraine the liberty to conduct their own foreign policy as they pleased in exchange for their nuclear arsenal.

Ah yes, German fascism in… 1920.

Yeah, that was really… weird.

Gangolf is an absolute death sentence of a first name, but if your last name then also translates to either egg lard or testicle lard…

Okay. Go to the nytimes website. Search for Israel. And then look at the language used for Israeli Actions compared to Hamas Actions.

“Conducts military strike” vs. “Fires rockets” “X palestinians left dead” vs. “Israelis killed”

And then go to Fox news or any of the more conservative newsites. Look at german news outlets. “The incarnation of evil” is a treatment reserved for Russia and Hamas in these circles, Israel is more like a morally wonky friend, who is still supported.

The further you go back, the less the actual negative press about Israel, despite the nature of the conflict from the beginning.

Nah, nights dont count, he was asleep.

Isnt everyone to the left of Harris a Marxust Leninist to Fox News?

I am currently doimg course on both of these topics.

Yes, there is a continuum between these concepts, but there is a much better case for the idea that all ibero-romance languages are actually one language than for the “Chinese Macrolanguage”.

Hakka for example is not mutually intelligible with any of the other branches of the family, yet it is still considered to be a dialect of Chinese. Why? Because it shares the script?

The political reason, imho, far outweigh the linguistical reasons for considering Chinese to be a language rather than a family.

Aaaaaah “Chinese”.

A language family with many mutually unintelligible languages, large variantions in vocabulary and a script that us shared by all of them. And somehow we have to keep treating it as one language, so Winnie the Pooh isnt angry at us.
