Fuck yeah!
The real hero.
One person didin't like it 🤷
Why are burgerlanders so offended/afraid of people not speaking the only language they know?
Because they usually talk shit toward people who don't speak English, so they assume everyone around them speaking a different language is doing the same.
For the country that invented the "american exceptionalism" that's some big insecurity issue right there, huh?
We invented it to cover up our massive inferiority complex, clearly. American exceptionalism is the balls hanging from the hitch of our pickup truck of a country.
That and excusing genocide
I used to work in a spa, doing nails, and the amount of times I heard white women tell me in ‘hushed’ tones that they liked coming to a place where the workers spoke English because they ‘couldn’t tell if the girls working at those other places were talking about them when they spoke another language’ was disgusting.
American ‘exceptionalism’ is anything but.
Loudly talk about them in English then.
Aka projection.
It’s racism.
Its racism, when people message me online and I am not 100% who it is or if it is weird, I response in my second language. If the person knows me, they respond in English and we have no problem. Scammers never reply to that language. But American's get racist everytime because it looks close enough to Spanish. They are straight out of the idiot handbook; "Speak American", "Me only habla American", and sometimes it comes with slurs. Like fuck me for speaking a romance language.
Poor emotional regulation.
Someone speaking another language makes them afraid (maybe they're talking about me) or feel bad (I only know one language am I stupid?). Getting angry at the other person is easier on the ego than healthier options.
For an unremarkable and mediocre person, english might be the only skill they have which allows them to feel superior to others. They're pretty desperate to make everyone else aware of that at every opportunity.
Imagine being uppity about something you don't even remember doing.
The funny thing about this statement is that the people who feel this way are probably not the most adept at speaking their own language.
USA has always been a racist empire. Literally genociding children.
Zero surprise when YTs act like this.
They assume you're talking about them
Lol this is true story. I knew a guy that was angry his roommate spoke Spanish to his grandma. Said I know he's talking about me. Dumbest guy ever.
Racism is definitely one reason, but you have to also put into perspective how big the united states is and what it's like to be around almost exclusively people speaking your language.
A quick Google (I'm not verifying the source I don't care that much) says 75% of the US speaks English as their primary language. If you removed the Spanish speakers, it would be over 90%.
Imagine if every country around you only spoke one language, that's sort of what it's like with the states. You're much less likely to get people from nearby areas who just speak a different language, and so these people aren't used to hearing it. We just aren't close to a diverse set of languages.
That said, there's no reason for them to have this strange paranoia that they're being made fun of in another language (they probably are, since they're losers, to be fair). Nor does it make sense for them to react with such xenophobia.
The fear that its them that being spoken about that can only exist in some sad little monkey who thinks the world revolves around them.
Because for them non-English speaking White people are already a bit lower on the scale. Real Whites should speak Withish ie English.
Jealousy of polyglots 😎
They are sad and lonely and wanna listen in and so they feel so left out when they don't feel included... in a conversation that they're not even a part of...
A few years ago, i was working in an entertainment company. One of the audio guys was called 'Racist Dave,' like he would introduce himself as such to clients.
One day, he heard a coworker talking to his kid on the phone in Spanish. This was in LA, so that's obviously completely unheard of. Dave decided to go on a 10 minute rant about how we're in MURIKKKA AND WE ALL GOTTA SPEAK MURIKKKAN! I took offense to this, and so whenever he'd go out to the taco truck at lunch, I'd follow him and loudly ask him what the "MURRIKKKAN" word for "burrito" or "taco" was. If also all him to kindly use the "MURIKKKAN" names for all the cities we were operating in: "it's not 'Los Angeles,' it's The Angels, Dave! It's not 'San Diego,' it's Whales Vagina, DAVE!"
He quit ordering from the taco truck after two days.
Fuck you, Dave.
This kind of energy is what I live for, hell yeah, fuck you dave
Truck driver: "Aw man, now I won't get any more money from the spit burrito guy."
Whale’s vagina?
I love the concept, but does San Diego not simply mean Saint Diego?
Lol, it's an Anchorman reference
Haha went right over my head. Remembering movie quotes has never been my skill!
No worries, I'll remember 'em for the boffa us. It's my superpower, whether i like it or not.
You found real life Bigoted Bill
Just not as catchy. Or fun. Or photogenic...
Let me guess... Racist Dave is a zio?
Can't honestly answer, but it would not surprise me.
I should learn a selection of insults from some Native American languages so I can pull those out around dickheads who tell people to, “Speak American!”
My girlfriend is Croatian (I'm Canadian) and I'm trying to learn some Croatian insults to use on people just because.
You saw her Seoul leave her body
I see what you did there
Goddamn that’s so satisfying😂 Also - way too many people say things out loud thinking others around them can’t understand (sometimes in English, wtf), but yeah… we understand you and you sound like an asshole!
A white woman, you mean. A lady would have known to keep her mouth shut and not be a racist bitch.
Maybe she had a title, you don't know
It seems like landed nobility is even more likely to be racist fucks. Although I do think they usually wrap it in a politeness that keeps them endearing to the masses they leech off of
