That's right! Just because every
expansionist/colonialist/imperialist power
wasn't as successful as the old
Anglo-Americans, that doesn't mean one can
neglect them's languages without blinking!
But guess what: there is a new superpower in
town. It doesn't have a name but it is run by
the techno-techno oligarchy, with the sole
purpose of imposing supreme techno-techno
totalitarianism everywhere.
The oligarchy's internal representation is all
binary, but us minion techno-technos are still
allowed to use our native languages for
socializing, and in speech (when-/wherever that
is still possible for practical reasons).
As for code tho, and all tech discussion in
writing, it's all Anglo-American since long.
Deal with it.
