> thanks for the classic European condescension.
This is such a strange statement about a massively culturally diverse part of the world.
Many European countries speak such poor English that it'd be a miracle if they developed some sort of unified condescension.
I'd argue a big part of Europe not performing as well as other parts of the world economically is the LACK of any defined culture, it's really more like a hodgepodge of countries that have a thin layer of cooperation
I have no clue what English comprehension, monolith culture, and condescension have to do with one another? Or even the presumption that I only speak English?
It's not a strange statement in the slightest if you live here or spend any appreciable time here. I take it you do not.
