Why did English become the international language instead of a culturally neutral one such as Esperanto?
>>72481002
Latin is a more neutral one tho
>>72481002
You're...right...hmm...
>>72481002
You're so stupid that I'll let you figure out yourself
>>72481002
>>72481002
Because anglos are superiror
>pig Latin is culturally neutral
Fuck off
If it was up to me we'd all speak a conlang with the most useful and aesthetically pleasing features from around the planet
>>72481002
Because we conquered the world at the correct time. That, and all other languages are shit.

>>72481002
Britain had an iron grip on trade and it speaks English, its successor is America and it also speaks English.
Esperanto is literally, unironically a meme language
>English
>Native tongue of consumer markets that the globe wanted to sell to and the scientists that the globe wanted to learn from.
>Esperanto
>some artificial hippie bullshit that literally nobody spoke.
It's a real mystery.
>>72481002
>culturally neutral
>words end in vowels
>>72481002
Because whites run the world
>>72481002
Cultural victory.
>>72481289
>Lojban
A hideous mess that looks like somebody trying to imitate Korean and failing.
>>72481321
>>72481405
It's what happens when people try to make a "culturally neutral" language
>>72481002
>Why did English become the international language
American cultural dominance.
>>72481002
Because Trump speaks English.
>>72481222
This is the answer.
>>72481289
Disgusting with aesthetics nowhere
Also pic related.
>>72481222
"You" conquered the world?
Nice joke, Muhammad.
>>72481540
May as well colour in the US and Philippines in blue as well.
>>72481002
Because the useless language you call "Esperanto" did not exist during the formation of are modern world. And Great Britain was the most prominent colonizer on Earth. Pic related.

A Englishman of foreign descent who loves his country has as much claim to the success of the British Empire as a native Englishman does.
Whether it be all or none, take that as you will.
>>72481564
>le Muslim Britain meme
No thanks, it's too late at night for that. Sorry mate.
>>72481719
You what?
>>72481872
AN ENGLISHMAN OF FOREIGN DESCENT WHO LOVES HIS COUNTRY HAS AS MUCH CLAIM TO THE SUCCESS OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE AS A NATIVE ENGLISHMAN DOES.
WHETHER IT BE ALL OR NONE, TAKE THAT AS YOU WILL.
>>72481222
This, and America being a economic superpower.
>>72481719
>A Englishman of foreign descent
No such thing. Civilization is not inheritable. Nationality are intrisically tied to ethnicity and race. They always will be and they always have been. Nobody outside of the west believes in civic nationalism if they even know what it is.
Western countries are the only countries who unironically believe their culture is so superior at the present that it can grind down and assimilate anybody of any background.
This is false. 4th generation middle-eastern immigrants have radicalized and engaged the Paris attacks. There will always be a handful of truly loyal foreigners, but the rest of them are capable of being turned against the host nation.
>>72481719
If a white dude is born in Japan and knows no culture but Japanese, he is unquestionably still not Japanese. Nor will he ever be accepted as such.
It's the same everywhere else and the policy western nations should have towards foreigners.
>>72481222
Amen. Thanks for that, dad. It's a damn good language you passed on.
>>72482107
>Western countries are the only countries who unironically believe their culture is so superior
It's because it IS, smartass. It wasn't Arabs who conquered a quarter of the known world. It wasn't subsaharans.
Also, notice how you pointed out members of a religion as opposed to an ethnicity. Notice what it says about said religion.
>>72481986
No.
>>72482107
>>72482185
This.
A dog being born and raised in a stable doesn't make it a horse.

>It's because it IS, smartass.
I'm not talking about what our culture WAS. I'm talking about what our culture IS. The west is losing an existential crisis to hordes of third worlders because of feminism, self hatred, pacifism, and white guilt. Feminists should note that their intense impact on society has rendered the west incapable of defending itself against men who beat, rape and murder women in the streets.
And think about it. Why would they want to assimilate. If you were going to a foreign country, would you respect the host's culture if they tried to "liberate" your women, destroy the family unit, expressed hatred for themselves and engaged in complete, total godlessness and degeneracy? Absolutely not.
>>72482337
Apples to oranges, friend. The difference between an Indian and an Englishman isn't that of a dog and a horse.
>>72482270
They are proving that their patriarchal, socially extremely conservative culture is superior to ours. They are beating our men and taking our women. Why the fuck would they want to assimilate to our culture?
>>72482509
Because, believe it or not, the Western school of thought isn't a hundred percent about women, despite feminism's best efforts. It's not Arab countries that put out geniuses with amazing innovations. It isn't Africans either. And East Asians, while it does happen, it happens to a lesser extent than that of the West. Why?
Western culture enables the individual. That's why they dominated the world.

Interesting fact about the creator of Esperanto
>Zamenhof was born on 15 December (3 December OS) 1859 in the town of Białystok in the Russian Empire. His parents were of Polish-Lithuanian Jewish descent that inhabited the central part of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
>>72482691

>didn't succeed
Explain this, cuckcucks.
>>72481002
because britain cucked the world. now everyone learns english
>>72483781
that must be why American English is the international language.
>>72481002
English is culturally neutral and the most culturally inclusive language to ever evolve.
>>72483982
It's not. Yuropoors speak British English, and anybody whose first language wasn't English I've met anywhere from outside of North America uses British English.
>>72483982
We Canadians use a mix of both.

Exceedingly retarded.

Canada is a dominion of the UK and outside of Quebec are native English speakers, so of course their English has many elements of British English. International English as spoken by non-native English speakers can be a mix of British and American English, but is mostly American English as far as spelling and turns of phrase are concerned. It varies from region to region but saying that International English is American English is basically correct.

Esperanto is a jewish invention
>>72481002
Esperanto is as "culturally neutral" as those dead white males the SJWs love.
Culture is an inseparable part of the perception of reality itself and true cultural neutrality is unimaginable.
>>72481194

Because the British had/have the biggest empire in the world.
