dang, I didn't know rule 1 "be civil" became rule 1 "insult everyone"

Clearly I'm not paying attention.

    He was civil. He didn't try to overthrow the government and kill someone. He also wasn't on Epstein's plane. Does that count?

    If insulting other people is "being civil", then I think I now know why the english-speaking internet is so toxic and why english-speaking democracies are so incredibly fucked.

    Unlike the non-English-speaking world, where fascists are never voted into office?

    "Ha, he said that he speaks German, so he must be from Germany! I am so smart!"

    1. the state-borders in Europe don't follow strict linguistic or ethic borders. There are a lot of German-speaking poles, danes, etc etc.
    2. If anything, their past makes the Germans experts and authorities in fascism. So on top of being wrong, you're also being illogical.
