English is the master language. If it's worth being said it will be said in English. Dirty poop languages like Eskimo, hindi, Turkish, just lmao. I wish English was more difficult because it serves as a useful filter.

Why would I want to speak with more people? English speakers alone comprises a group of mostly assholes. If anything knowing no languages would be a blessing.

So cringe, this guy has picked an arbitrary metric and decided to belive that it's the one that will make him feel better about himself, and even in saying this mentions his father and tips his hand as to how his parents weren't close enough to him and that they're still on his mind... so cringe

If it were hard it wouldn't be widely adopted, see Chinese. Be more humble.

Languages are cool and I have studied a good bit of russian.
Its just that part of me is realizing that I already don't talk to people, so learning to speak another language is a particularly redundant skill to pick up.

If you're not actively learning new languages so that you can STEAL WORDS, you suck at English. That's my weltanschauung.

Why would I learn the languages of subhumans? To converse with subhumans? Why would I want to converse with subhumans?

English has "worldview" you mongrel. That is literally german for "world" and "view" welded together.

This obsession with comparing yourself to others and deriding others based on arbitrary metrics is exhausting. I'm learning Spanish in my free time, or trying to, but I do not much care how many languages a person speaks. I do not care what their height is, whether they are ugly or attractive, rich or poor, or intelligent. I have reached the point where all I really care about is whether a person is genuinely good hearted and cares about his fellow man.

I just don't care about ephemeral indicators of status anymore, and I find it tiring to see people constantly trying to be "better" than one another. This planet is a nightmarish sacrificial chamber that we cannot escape from. To be the fattest sacrifice is no great honour.

False, "worldview" is the short version for stupid people. "Weltanschauung" is a proper English word.

I'm more impressed by what languages someone knows. If someone knows JP/KR/Chinese etc it's more impressive than knowing spanish/italian/french

Most polygots can't even carry a conversation in languages they've been "studying for years"

This right here. At least on the internet. I've come across many of these people and I just cringe when they attempt to talk to me in my native tongue. It's not even an obscure language, it's spanish for god's sake. Learning how to say dog and blue in another language doesn't mean you can speak it.

English is the perfect language. Do you want to speak to someone from jamaica? You can. Do you want to speak to someone from Kenya? You can. Do you want to speak to someone from India? You can.
