@BobekTrombocyt@TooNooooooooo@apollostump Instead of telling strangers on the internet what to do, you could just explain why the translation is disrespectful. But then you would have to concede that different cultures have different notions of respect, and then you wouldn't have a reason to be mad
@BobekTrombocyt@TooNooooooooo@apollostump Dexerto is a British outlet w an English speaking target audience. Why shouldn't their tweets be catered to Anglophones? This has nothing to do w America ๐ญ
@actualNico19009@apollostump You can't refute my point on the cross cultural nuances of handling proper nouns, so you pivot to irrelevant country based insults.
If Europe wasn't visibly degenerating into a USA-style austerity ridden Zionist shithole in real time, the insults would at least be fair.
@demonslaughters@TooNooooooooo@apollostump Why is it offensive? Different languages have different phonetics and therefore different perceptions of what is cute / nasty. This is a fact.
@actualNico19009@apollostump Has it occurred to you that Americans and Brits might have different cultural norms around these things compared to mainland Europeans
@demonslaughters@TooNooooooooo@apollostump Nobody is banning Germans from calling her Brรถtchen. I just don't see a problem with English speakers capturing the same meaning in a phrase that better suits the phonetics of our language.
@Boredof_SFBoard@uhshanti If your coalition wasn't so obsessed with the religious delusion that the government sucks at everything, we could have infinite public housing.
@3RenChengHu@uhshanti I always forget how much of "educated" centrist reasoning is just laundering their own laziness as some sort of law of economics.
If Congress funded more residencies, we would have more doctors and doctors would be cheaper. They can easily pull that $$ from the Pentagon budget.
