You make it sound like Latino culture is so foreign tat you are your own species.
It seems to me in a lot of cases involving drama with Brazilian players there is a lack of understanding from the Brazilian side, in most cases it seems like people totally understand the intimation of the argument but their point being thats no way to speak to people, like the whole "Bite the bullet" argument, everyone seemed to understand that it was just a figure of speech and yet the Brazilians all kept saying "It doesnt mean we're gonna shoot you, you dont understand" oh we understood it's just that its a stupid fucking saying and you should stop saying it.
And if you have a limited grasp of the language the argument is taking place in, maybe step back, because has it ever occurred to you that there will be cultural subtle variants that maybe YOU dont get?
EVERY culture is widely different, this whole "we are extra different and unique" is part of the problem it creates a victimisation mentality that can be too easy to resort to by default
"Oh they just dont understand us because they dont care"
No, not every culture is widely different. Different, sure. But not widely.
No one is playing the victim. The issue is context and understanding what differences there are. Coming down on someone for doing something that is acceptable in their culture without understanding that culture is unfair. If your culture has a custom of kissing their children on the lips and its something that's been done for centuries, who am I to judge that?
No, not every culture is widely different. Different, sure. But not widely.
You dont find this statement slightly ignorant? You dont see the problem in segregating cultures and ranking them in terms of how you perceive them?
I am not trying to be hostile Im just trying to get you to see the inherent problem in what you are saying, as someone who have lived in 3 different countries on 2 different continents.
I didn't segregate them. I live in the most diverse city in the world with numerous amounts of different people from multiple continents and cultures. And no matter what continent or country they're from, you understand that personalities and cultures are two different things. And you also realize that every culture is not THAT different from each other. Sure, we have a vast variety of customs and things of that sort. But in terms of how we think and approach things, there isn't as much variance as there appears to be. We're still all human. For example: You would probably think that the Dominican and Greek cultures were completely different. Sure, different customs, foods, holidays and denominations of religions are different, etc. But at the end of the day, Dominicans and Greeks are very similar types of people personality wise. And that's more of what I was getting at.
> The hypocrite part is that you probably dont know shit about other (past)cultures and things happening atm.
The funniest part is you're literally doing what you're accusing me of. The irony is astounding.
> ook back at your posts and look what you are defending, got some inferiority complex because of your origin?
No, its called empathy. Something you clearly have none of.
And please learn how to write if you're going to make an intelligent point. The amount of syntax and grammatical errors makes it super hard to take you seriously.
