  1. Bigot alert. You should get help, guy. Start by learning what racism is, then get some sensitivity training.

  2. The fact that you're writing this anectote in fluent English...

  3. Multiculturalism and globalization will resolve that condition for you. Say goodbye to your identity.

  4. You clearly have no idea what racism is. You seem to think racism means criticizing multiculturalism. That is what is sad. But it doesn't stop you from slandering nice people on the internet. Hope you overcome your bigotry one day soon.

  5. Racist? Where? And who asked you?

  6. @Ksjs Jdjdb Your miserable understanding of multiculturalism and racism doesn't stop you from calling people racist you don't understand. Hey, that's a serious insult.

  9. Buddy, be awake. Multiculturalism is globalization. Different cultures get mixed together. The sum is lesser than the input because you don't have more culture, you just have a mixed one, one that killed off the minority language, and whatever cultural knowledge is left behind. You don't just have 10 ways of doing things. You forget the other 8, and those cultures are destroyed.

  10. Equivalent of genetic drift, in genes. I don't understand it at all. These children with their "lowkey consumer apps," it's all gibberish.

  12. Shakespeare is nothing. Chaucer is difficult.

  13. It is. We know those words, but the spelling and obscure medieval vocabulary make simple sentences incomprehensible. Also, reading medieval script makes it even harder. You can know what is written, if only you could recognize it in front of you.

  14. I can imagine you having trouble with the Carribean English, but I can't imagine the guy somehow coming all the way to Alaska to be boggled by whatever you sounded like. There's no "Alaskan accent" that I'm aware of.

  15. The Wahhabists in Arabia will put a stop to that. Soon there won't be 1500 year old Arabic scripts to read.

  16. Haha, I'll bet. They've probably never encountered terms like "democracy," "investment" or the "internet."

  17. @Ksjs Jdjdb I'd call you a racist then, but that wouldn't make any sense.
