  1. They probably picked isiXhosa because it has a lot of click sounds so it sounds more stereotypically African. there are some other languages with more click sounds but they are almost extinct. so they picked isiXhosa so they could find people that spoke it. for east Africa they should have picked Swahili or Luganda.

  2. Ducktales is the only cartoon that i can think of were a rich guy is a hero not a villain. i guess you can also count bat man but that started as a comic and bat man became more edgy even in the 80s.

  3. Well movie critics have always been very elitist and nit picky a lot of my favourite movies got negative reviews.

  4. In pre modern times women had to work a lot too but they did different work from the men. only for a short period in the mid 20th century could the average woman work. and the birth rates in america and europe had already declined by that time. in 1950 women in north America had 3 kids on average but in 1850 they had over 6 on average.

  6. Yea they are unhinged. i have seen a lot of women freak out for no reason. it happens a lot less with men. i thought it was always like this but maybe not. so i don't trust women that i don't know very well. but i don't get to meet new people since there is not much to do outside. i just walk in the woods every day but there are only old people and joggers that are too focussed on jogging to talk to me. i don't want to go to a night club. i just have a few old friends that i hang out with. sometimes i only go to the city to buy things.

  8. Its probably going to be a hybrid traditional on some things but not pure right wing ideas i think most people dislike the far left now i noticed a lot more people in my region getting more conservative while 10 years ago only old people where conservative you would never see a 20 year old conservative in 2010 in western europe.

  10. All of these "problems" yet japan is still one of the richest countries in Asia. and also democratic unlike the other rich countries in Asia. only Taiwan and south Korea are on par but they have similar issues but slightly worse actually. you also got rich countries in the middle east but they are authoritarian. their lives are just as good as in western Europe and north America but are not having their recent problems with high crime and bad politics and censorship .and compare it with all the south east Asian countries they have come a long way but they got much bigger problems and can't reach first world levels some are rich but dictatorships. it seems like those countries are cursed and always have bad luck .when i say i think the west has gone down hill i always have to mention that japan is doing things better than western europe .because if i mention Poland or Thailand they just say i am crazy because they are not as rich as my home country .

  16. is it just me or do Brazilian presidents have almost total control of the government when bolsonaro was president he did most of the things he wanted too. in Europe and north America we often complain that politicians only do a small fraction or what they wanted or are too slow .but it can also be seen as a good thing if they are bad politicians

  20. yea but online they can pretty much pick any man they want from a massive area and they can only see a few pics so they go only by looks. when they see you irl there are a lot more factors that could make you attractive .

  26. the difference is that back then the Spanish and Russians didn't give up they kept going and eventually found a way to win. i think what is happening to the uk is more vaguely similar to what happened to the Mongols or even more similar to the Manchu were they just stopped caring and some how got assimilated into the culture they conquered .

  28. I have a high iq but i noticed i can't use my intellect for anything useful. sometimes i get inspiration and i can learn things very quickly and have great ideas .but most of the time i am mediocre and i have low self confidence. i think i will mess things up that are quite simple. and i am extremely lazy. i like to spend a lot of time learning how to build things but not actually build them.

  30.  @joshuakhaos4451  i guess it depends on what region you are in like one town near to were i live was crime ridden in the 90s while the one next to it was peaceful but i the 2000s the criminals seemed to have moved to the other town. but these days we got a lot of other issues caused by weird politics and that didn't start happening until the last 10ish years .

  36. The bantu languages are the biggest group in Africa they have a lot in common .they are spoken in central Africa east Africa southern Africa. they are known for their classifier system .the bantu languages are related to the Niger Congo languages in west Africa but there is more variation over there .another big group in north Africa west Africa and the horn of Africa and the middle east is afro Asiatic. there are languages like Somali Amharic Hausa and some non African languages like Arabic and Hebrew. there is also the Nilo-Saharan languages. these are mysterious they are found in south sudan and the great lakes and other random places in Africa. and there are the rare Khoisan languages in south Africa known for their clicks some bantu languages like zulu also have clicks. but that is because of Khoisan influence the Khoisan languages have way more. on Madagascar they speak an Austronesian language with some bantu influence. the Austronesian languages are from south east Asia and the pacific. languages like Indonesian Tagalog and Hawaiian are related.

  38. I saw a lot of old videos from that time where they where worried about overpopulation. it started in the 17th or 18th century but birth rates didn't drop until more recently .in europe they dropped after ww2. in a lot of other regions they started dropping in just the last few decades.

  39. a bit of a bad example since china only has a lot of people for historic reasons and their population is shrinking now but there are very religious countries with the same problem like iran

  44. Seems like japan was starting to take over but then they didn't capitalise on the internet fast enough and now most of the tech giants are American .and another strange thing was that Japan's best products often didn't even come out in other countries or came out way later .like the old computers from japan were very good but they were different from systems used in the west and not compatible. so they usually didn't bother realising them here since after 1985 most people only wanted to use ibm or apple computers. and some company released a better computer in the late 80s that was more powerful and cheaper .but people in America back then didn't buy it because the good graphics were considered unproffeional (i know i misspelled it i don't care )and people didn't see a use for it and kept calling it a games console . later on in the early 2000s japan had smart phones before the west. but these were ,ot your modern smart phones they were devices with a little keyboard and other experimental features .most of them never came to the west and those that did came late or couldn't use all their features on western phone networks. then the i phone came out and a lot of western companies tried to create systems similar to ios .while in japan they were still focussing on older style phones and in the end only apple and android remained. and Japanese companies didn't even try .some west European companies did try but lost the format war so that is also something they lost on Japanese companies make android phones but they run android made in the us so they are no different than any other country and have little influence. but right now japan is doing well on things people used to think japan wasn't good at .like movies just look how much Japanese stuff is popular nowadays. a lot of my friends love anime and actually watch in Japanese not English and there are a lot of Japanese references all over the place .when i was a kid it was much rarer i did watch anime and play Japanese video games .but anime was considered as something for kids and everything had to be very westernised. not only language but they even did things like replace rice with doughnuts or ninjas with cowboys. and keep in mind i am from Europe so what is really the difference between replacing 1 foreign thing with another. so in a way its kind of like blade runner since i do see billboards in Japanese walking around town .not many ofcourse and mixed in with many other cultures but its real .
