Americans don't understand one another.They speak different languages. See below for all the languages involved. Which do you speak?

The languages are Trump, Republican, Democratic, Conservative, Liberal, ALT RIGHT WHITE nationalist, Progressive, Libertarian, Green, Peace,  Racist, Bigoted, Homophobic, Misogynistic, Anti-Semitic. We don't speak unity. We speak wealthy, poor, privileged, underprivileged. Some talk patriotism/Constitutional but their actions don't EVER reflect that. There is no "American" or "English" spoken here. So it is a Tower of Babel and only gibberish/babel because no one understands anyone. No wonder we don't get along. We need dependable translators without prejudice/partisan interests. Where do we find THEM?

  • Generalizations and devisiveness. Seems you're one of those of whom you accuse. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at March 10, 2017 7:19 AM MST

  • Sadly not everyone has anything useful to say.. and sadly some prefer to insult rather than just ignore.. it takes all sorts I suppose.

    AARRGGHH! More truth! I cahn't stend it! Another respondent on this thread said they all speak different dialects of the same bullsh**! What do you do with that but say "you're right"? I don't know how much truth I can take at one time Glis. Thank you for your spot-on reply and Happy Saturday!  :)

    I feel the premise of your question to be illogical. I speak good ol' American Midwest English with none of the negative choices of your list. And a bit of German and Yiddish.

  • As a casual observer I have a working hypothesis... that there are two kinds of American.. those who are smart, intelligent and who question and research rather than believe the propaganda they are fed and those who aren't.. 

    There is a world-wise perception that most Americans are not that bright... I don't believe that, I know MANY are very, very intelligent.. it's just hard to work out what percentage of all Americans they make up..Either way for sure some of them seem to speak a different language.

     We used to live in the United States of America! Since Trump took over it is now Trumpland. There is no doubt about that! His truth is THE TRUTH. He lies every time he opens his mouth. Congress chases after his lies to prove them or disprove them. The media covers every single stupid dumbheaded wild-a** statement. I advocate blackout entirely. Nothing he says is true. None of it is worth listening too. But people do. Why? Thank you for your reply DdbTD! :)
