For Europa, language used to be ethnic and sacredly connected to a people as their secret code of communication. Now that English is becoming our world's dominant language, there is no longer any natural layer of communication security for the West. China has Chinese, Israel has Israeli, but America and parts of Europe are now vulnerable as their secret code is known by all. Even now in "peacetime", Muslim terror agents in Britain can easily understand their targets, but can't be understood. In wartime, imagine this problem but on a massive scale. You can't yell out orders in your secret code anymore because all the Chinese soldiers killing your people grew up learning it in school.
I hope someone can just come in here and call out why this doesn't make any sense, but right now it seems to me that we are at a severe disadvantage. Even now, other countries can observe our internet and learn who we are while very few of us can do the same back. It may seem dominant to have your language everywhere, but I feel like there could be severe negative consequences down the line. Feeling more and more like a guinea pig every day.

Schizophrenic responses don't help here. Start speaking like a normal person, not a caricature of a 2016 alt-right memer.

Take a bath with a toaster, projecting leftist. You fuckers are living weapons, something you blame on your outgroup. I got hit by your ilk repeatedly tho I’m actually on your side politically.

You can know more languages than your own native one and still identify with your native language and its culture. It makes no difference if many people speak a universal language apart from their native language. This is a slide thread.

Reading comprehension, retard.
Stop embarrassing this board.

That doesn't address the post I made whatsoever, honestly. You need to step out of your dreamworld and back into reality, brother. You aren't reading right, as I was talking about how this relates to conflict, much less on the side of culture. Maybe take a break or something.

Languages can influence your way of thinking due to their structures and limitations. Having whole nations speak foreign language and being exposed to it on a daily basis is a big deal.
