It is racist and not inclusive now to expect people to learn English because it erases their culture. A friend of mine is a teacher and has a bunch of migrants in her class since they got rid of ESL classes as "isolating." So she has to Google translate everything she says. And they write their essays in Spanish and Google translate them to English.
That's genuinely heartbreaking. Part of me can't help but think that women being the overwhelming majority of teachers cultivates this kind of self-destructive deference.
That reminds me of some video I saw, where the journo scum was making a sob story about some Mexican woman being deported after 20 years. Interview was entirely in Spanish, 'cuz the woman didn't speak a word of English.
What is interesting to me is the woman came in 2005, and was naturalized in 2011. And yet she doesn't speak English in 2024?
This is what happens when we don't bully foreigners and make them feel unwelcome.
There’s no incentive to learn English. In fact there’s a greater incentive to not know it as you get more gibs that way.
