It’s kinda funny, I’m Flemish and a lot of French loan words (ambriage, merci, nondedju = nom de dieu to name a few) are mainly used in dialect, and therefore don’t make you sounds sophisticated or worldly at all.

Meh, as a native Dutch speaker auxiliary verbs feel really utilitarian to me, and not particularly fancy - like you said, that’s highly subjective.
As for cases, I didn’t say Latin or German had the most, but just that I think they’re fancy and that Latin has them while French doesn’t.
For one, Latin has more fancy rules than French. I guess the subjunctive is probably something English speakers might consider fancy, but Latin has that too. Latin has more times that are conjugations of the core verb (rather than needing auxiliary verbs), has grammatical cases (like German, but two more if you include vocative) and, idk, also just feels fancier in general.
I’ll admit it’s been years since I actually read any Latin and that I only have a surface level understanding of all languages mentioned except for French, but this post reads like it’s about the stereotypes of the countries rather than being about the languages themselves.
They’re different tools, just use them alongside each other.
Yup, it’s bottom of the barrel content. He also constantly engagement baits by asking people to comment if they want to see X or Y running on the machines he features, and he never actually does whatever he’s saying. It’s just a content farm.
Clearly not the point of OP’s question though
Both Lenin and Castro were obviously better than the regimes that came before them.
That’s what the revolution will not be televised has always meant though

No, the US supports Israel because it’s in the interest of their own capital class, which is also why the Brits supported the creation of Israel in the first place.
The idea that the US supports Israel because of Israeli leverage also sounds quite a bit like antisemitic conspiracy theories, and I’m surprised people throw it around willy-nilly.
Honestly very disappointed in the comments here. There’s a valid point to what he’s saying, and the “have you met people?” line of thinking just talks right past that.
Working together doesn’t require conformity. Perhaps there is something to your point, but you’re not arguing it convincingly.
And for a lot of those countries, China is easily the lesser of two evils. Says more about us in the West than about them though.
Russia, Iran and China are regularly correct when they’re criticising the West tbh. It’s an easy way to score points that can’t really be countered.
and if you trust your family they can get login to Radarr and Sonarr such that they can themselves pick out content they want available.
Jellyseerr is far better for this! And if you’re using Plex or Emby, Overseerr and Ombi should work for you.
I’d say the most important thing is teaching young people to be critical about the information they consume, which is only possible if this is talked about in a serious and comprehensive manner in school. Studies like this most likely enable that.
Also, having actual, decent information on those platforms also helps, most likely.
But if you’re asking me to solve this mess, idk. Misinformation has always been a thing.
It’s not even about looking for facts. If you hear something enough it’ll start to sound normal, so it’s bad even if people don’t look for information on social media.
Plus, we know that people get a lot of their information from social media. Being smug about that isn’t exactly helpful.
I don’t disagree, but I’ve noticed that second or third language speakers with certain first languages (no idea which languages, they just have certain similar patterns in English so I’m assuming there’s a reason for that) tend to use both males and females when they speak English. It sounds weird, but it’s not necessarily sexist in that context.
It’s true that it’s often inception shit though, but it’s mostly easy to tell the difference.
Heh, we use velo as well. And yeah, we don’t really stigmatise dialects that much either, though depending on how much dialect you use people might find it unprofessional.
