It's crazy how much more backwards all these European countries are becoming with each passing day.

They have never dealt with niggers and sandniggers before and all they have to guide them is liberalism. Europe is going to be so red-pilled very soon and then they will not tut-tut America about its "racial" problems.

When I was in high school, we had to take a language. They said "take spanish, it's inevitability going to be the language here in the states."
So that's why I took french, because fuck you immigrants, learn my language in my country.

You really choose french over spanish?
spanish is so fucking easy compared to french where 2/3 of all letter are silent.

Yup. I didn't really find it that hard, although I'm much better at translating it than I am speaking it. Plus, everyone took spanish so it was like 30 people to a class, whereas with french there were 12 of us so we actually got to learn something other than "read the book, recite the words, you now speak gardener"

Most of my school took spanish. There was only one French class, and I had to fight the school to let me in it, even though we had a choice and I was free to pick French. We were on the border with Canada, we even had a French TV station. Yet they pushed spanish on us, and my teacher for the spanish class wouldn't let me go to the office and try and get it fixed, so I eventually just walked out.

No they got this wrong. See the immigrants have to learn the language of their new country. They should be learning German. Not the other way around. This is literally backwards.

I remember when I moved to south Florida in second grade (from Indiana). They told me I had to take Spanish classes. They told me it was because there were so many Cuban immigrants to south Florida and it helps them integrate into our society if we know their language. I told them no. I wasn't going to learn Spanish. The Cubans should learn English instead. This is America, and our primary language is English, not Spanish, so I should not be required to learn it. If I wanted to learn it, as an elective or something, then that was another story, but I shouldn't be forced to take classes for a language that isn't my country's native language.
So when it came time for Spanish class, I would put my head down and ignore the teacher, out of personal protest. My main teacher (English, Math, etc) organized a parent-teacher meeting to try and get my mom to make me participate in Spanish class because I was getting zeroes in every lesson and failing the class (all my other grades were As and Bs). My mom tried to convince me, but I still refused to participate in Spanish class.
Eventually, it was decided that they would waive my need to participate in the class, citing cultural differences or some shit because I was raised in another state that didn't have any Spanish-speakers, and I got to sit in Spanish class for the rest of the school year and do nothing and still pass.
And I still hold the same belief - Immigrants should learn the primary language of a given country, not the other way around. I would give another country the same respect if it were me immigrating to their country - I'd learn their language instead of trying to force them to learn mine.
So when anyone asks me if I ever learned a single thing in Spanish class, I get to tell them "No."

You tell them "No", which is Spanish for "No". See OP, you did learn something.
Anyhow, good for you for standing up for your beliefs, even through all of that.

Spanish is an easy language. Add on "O" to every word and you'll be passable.
Canadian French is easy. Be sure to add "Eh?" to the end of every sentence.
German is extra easy. Pronounce words with a deeper voice and add "-en" to every word. Be sure to end the sentence with "Ja?"
Russian? After one learns the alphabet (based on Greek not Latin alphabet) the process is the same. Pronounce the words with harsh consonents.
Etc. for all languages.
People will understand the general meaning of your words. Ask them to help you with the words you missed. That endears to you because you showed an interest.
This doesn't work for the African click-click language. As this is Voat, I doubt anyone wants to visit Nigger Homeland.
I'm going to hell for being so dismissive of other cultures and especially the last comment about a homeland. I'm not racist but enjoy being the KKK Grand Dragon while on the keyboard.

Of course immigrants should learn the language of their host country. However, you accomplish nothing by refusing to learn their language especially when their is such a vast influx of immigrants.
If you learn their language, you are quite effectively the better person and ahead of your fellow citizens. You give immigrants the ability to integrate through cooperative speech. You can help to fill in the blanks in the language gap, prove that you care about their struggle.
When you refuse to understand anything about these people, you only enforce the idea that their culture and their very lively hoods are meaningless to people outside of their home country (especially in the cases of people seeking refuge), creating divisions between naturalized citizens and newcomers. This in turn creates negative feelings and perceptions, resulting in violent outbursts from either side. By learning their language you earn their respect and their trust setting the scene for a more peaceful assimilation on both sides.
I hope you don't think you're some champion of freedom by choosing to be ignorant, because you are not.

It's forwards to the elites who want a progressively dumber, infighting populace. They're probably looking to the U.S. negro problem for inspiration. It's as good as an admission that the savages are incapable of integrating.
[–] jeegte12 ago
what the fuck is wrong with learning another language? their reasoning may be flawed, but the idea itself is fine. the means justify the end, which is irrelevant.
