Why do some Americans get angry at other people for not speaking English?
  • It's good old-fashioned xenophobia and is by no means unique to Americans or English-speakers even in the modern era. Anyone who has spent enough time in certain parts of France, Italy, or Belgium has probably encountered it at some point.

    It's everywhere but it is probably most prevalent in countries with a strong nationalist core and, in my opinion, ironically occurs most often in countries that have really fucked around with having an empire in the last century or so.

  • Russian space control center in Crimea struck by Ukrainian ATACMS missiles
  • It doesn't need to be spelled out. You just keep misspelling it intentionally.

    Attacking first strike detection isn't the provocation, it's the response. Amazing this needs to be spelled out, except we all know it doesn't because we all know you understand perfectly well.

  • Russian space control center in Crimea struck by Ukrainian ATACMS missiles
  • Or Russia could stop annexing sovereign shit.

    Funny to read people carrying Russia's dirty pisswater, pretending to wring their hands in fear about a response to fucking aggression. We aren't happening to Russia, Russia is happening to us.

  • The mask ban shit is unreal.
  • I share your hatred but that likely isn't what is happening here.

    Put simply, someone fucked up. At an airport, the competing concerns of health and security are in their most extreme tension. For some reason, someone on staff skewed security when they should have skewed health.

    There is no excuse for it, and guaranteed it has already been resolved or soon will be. This is in one of the busiest international airports in the world, and masks are still very common in air travel, particularly from countries like Japan - and I believe this restaurant is even in the terminal that ANA flies into. Restaurants simply cannot afford rent if they intentionally impose restrictions like that on their customers.

    In my view the only thing wrong with this video is that it doesn't have 400 million views, so I like to repost it every so often.
