I'd keep off the subject of French if I were you. UA isn't fond of foreign languages.
I love foreign languages. I speak Mandarin very well and a good deal of Sichuanese in case you forgot. I just don't think its a good idea for everyone to learn them, if you already speak English.

Yes, why should anyone bother learning about primitive cultures when we all know America is just better?
I don't have an egosig because I'd rather my ideas be judged on their merits than on mine. Catpoints: Spoiler:

What are catpoints?
A way of measuring how much I love you.
How do I get catpoints?
1: participate in my forum games/contests.
2: make awesome posts.
3: destroy Carthage.
What can I do with catpoints?
You can ask favors of me. I may or may not agree to your favor, depending on how big the favor is and how many catpoints you have.
Who has how many catpoints?

The sad reality is that actually many people really do think that way...

To be fair, Americans aren't the only ones guilty of this.

I find it pretty sad that you result to strawman fallacies so much and then you accuse others of doing the same?
No one said anything remotely close to what you're talking about.
When you're done looking like a clown let us know...

I've yet to meet any...but if I did I would still find Cato's mindset to be worse...the guy that thinks he has all the answers when if fact he does all the things he blames others for.
Someone that prefers American culture in the way you're suggesting is harmless...people like Cato make the world a terrible place to live.

Way off topic, but I see where UA is coming from. You know those guys who say they aren't math people? I'm not a language guy.
