Racists already mad on Twitter due to commercials

I'm well aware of the separatist movements in Canada, but a separate nation for French speakers wouldn't mean the end of Canada... it would just be different. Canada could still exist sans Quebec. You are a retard for saying Canada would cease to be, as if it would be removed from the planet. You are a retard for implying our differences will ultimately lead to our downfall. You might as well say everyone needs to become Republican pronto, less the nation break up and is annexed by Mexico!

thats just semantics, the point is quebec is seceding because of language

and i said the territory called canada would still exist but its future would be up in the air, because other provincces may try to declare independence or try to join the united states

im not the one saying canada might implode, its the articles that i posted that suggest that, anybody with half a brain understands that if quebec secedes it would leave a question mark over the future of canada

but whether it does or not is not really relevant ot my point, my point is that the main reason for the discussion of quebec seceding is because of language

and stop moving the goal posts of what makes me a retard and stop putting words in my mouth

It is a violation of individual rights to force a citizen of this country to learn a language, or force them to leave.

who is forcing anybody to speak a language?

There is no more of a requirement to be an English speaker in this country as it is to be a Christian.

who said there was?

Just because the vast majority of people speak a particular language doesn't mean it's right to require everyone to speak that language. Just like it wouldn't be right to require everyone to go to church or worship the way the majority of people do

i agree, you can speak whatever language you want

what i dont agree with is government encouraging second languages or corny ass commercials suggesting english isnt a fundamental component of american culture and a move away from 200 years of american tradition that focuses on immigrants learning english

integrating immigrants is one thing that american culture is good it, there is no need to change it now and part of the traditional american process of integrating immigrants is pushing immigrants to learn english

@ Bolded. Why not? Because it might personally inconvenience you to learn a second language? If social cohesion is really what you're so concerned about, have you ever considered, I don't know, learning about the culture of your fellow Americans, and maybe learning a couple phrases in their language? Why do you take it as a personal insult that someone might have a slightly different heritage, or isn't traditionally American? The fact that this is what you took away from the commercial is very telling. Nothing about it said that immigrants shouldn't learn English to better assimilate, at least not to me. If they are learning the lyrics to "America, The Beautiful" in their first language, obviously they want to assimilate on some level. To me, this commercial pointed out that it doesn't matter where you come from, or what your first language was, we can still be united under certain common ideals. Did you not consider that these people singing the song in their first language might be bilingual, and also fluent in English? I doubt it, and your bigotry is showing.

And besides, appealing to tradition is such a weak ass argument. Half a century ago, minorities were fighting to have certain traditions changed so they could have the same protection under the law as the majority of citizens. So miss me with that talk of American tradition ... as if it's always been this perfect guideline to how things should be run.

@ Bolded. Why not?

didnt i just explain why in my last few posts

Because it might personally inconvenience you to learn a second language?

no its because of the reasons i just stated, are you retarded?

If social cohesion is really what you're so concerned about, have you ever considered, I don't know, learning about the culture of your fellow Americans, and maybe learning a couple phrases in their language?

part of the integration process is Americans absorbing parts of other cultures, you suggesting that i have a problem learning from other cultures is just something you are making up, nothing im suggesting is saying americans shouldnt learn from other cultures

Why do you take it as a personal insult that someone might have a slightly different heritage, or isn't traditionally American?

never said i did and i have absolutely no idea what the hell you are talking about

all i said is that immigrants need to learn english and that the coke commercial is corny

you can interpret that commercial anyway you want, thanks for sharing but i think the commercial is corny and i think it does suggest that learning english is not important

i can tell you a million things that are wrong with american tradition, but integrating immigrants is not one of them

Man, racists been OD'ing ever since Obama's been in office.

It's like they're on high alert, just looking for something to be mad about.

Yep and they like to call us angry black men and they always so pissed off.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

the coke was corny as hell, people need to know english if they want to live in america

Where in the commercial did they say people don't need to know English to live in America? U do realize a person can speak more than one language right? And one of America's greatest assets is its cultural diversity?

fukk that noise breh. Both of my parents could read, write, and understand english fluently before they settled here in 1971. In India English is required to learn just like math and reading. My little cousins over there all know english and they never been here in their life. most African immigrants I see know english as well. What inconvenience? fukk outta here with that.

I don't give a fukk what you are, if you're in this country learn the language. "half a century ago" half these minorities you see running around weren't even here yet. Now they want to come here and reap the benefits of what people fought and died for but it's an "inconvenience" for them to learn the language?

Why do you hate the 1st Amendment?

I find it silly that racist white Americans don't realize that there are plenty of bilingual Americans. Singing a song that glorifies America in multiple languages does not mean that those people singing don't speak English.

If a bunch of Americans went to some other country and sung one of their most patriotic songs in english, I'm sure more than a few people would be annoyed. Like I said, it's not the anthem so I see the outrage as stupid, but let's not be disingenuous here friend.

If those people can speak english than guess what, they should sing it in english. Or don't sing it at all, that's cool too.

The point of the commercial was to show that many Americans come from different places. It was an artistic expression by singing in other languages and I think the point got across. Being bilingual doesn't make anyone less American. Matter of fact, some of the people who founded this country were bilingual (French was the major international language). The fact that you and I are immigrants or children of immigrants (and speak another language) doesn't make us any less American.

 

[Type Username Here]

nowhere, its written in the laws of social cohesion tho

Ok, "Social cohesion". So no actual law though. Do you by chance know why that is? Why it's not officially declared in the Constitution?


Also, do you think those people singing in their language automatically implies they can't speak English? Why did you assume that off the bat?

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Your country Canada is a great example. Who wants to live in a country that is divided by language? Who wants to live in a nation where you can't even communicate with your fellow countrymen?

If I don't want that then I am a racist????

Lol wtf are u talking about? We have one French speaking province lol. It ain't hard to be bilingual.

A song like that shouldn't be sung in anything other than it's original tongue. That's just my unbiased opinion. It doesn't offend me personally, but I can see how others would be offended.

A country really isn't shyt without some type of identity. Immigrants know this full well because too many of them come over here and refuse to adapt and assimilate precisely because they don't want to relinquish those identities. Too many immigrants segregate themselves from other groups of people and then complain when stupid white people say shyt like what's in those tweets. It's a two-way street, but the truth is nobody forced those people to come and settle here.

That cheerios commercial wasn't even about anything, they weren't even trying to sell their product. Why does Cheerios have such a political agenda?

Lets dig deeper, shall we?

YKH, again. Why is Western European men preserving their society and culture so offensive to everyone else, especially jews, on this planet? We should ask them how they feel about miscegenation in Israel.

Better pray the sleeping beast never awakes.

 

[Odyssey]

With the Coke ads, Cheerios ads, and Manning taking that massive L, you can say the theme of the night was "You Madd?"

I think racist Whites have begun realize that the face of America is changing and the hold that they have on the country is slowly starting to lose it's grip. They are gonna get even more angrier and belligerent when their way to becoming a minority in this country is near completion, and funny thing is...




there's nothing they can do about it

That's what you think.

That Cheerios ad had me like

Interracial couple? BLACK FATHER?? These advertising companies getting brazen as fukk

can you explain to non-white posters what the "sleeping beast" is, because many non-white people are under the illusion that white people have plans on coming together with non-whites in peace and harmony?

can you let them know what will happen if the sleeping beast is awakened, non-white people tend to believe white people's words over non-white's?
