"China is the future, do you agree?"
(lemmy.ml)
How would you answer this, and how would you expect Chinese netizens on Xiaohongshu to answer?
I will link to the thread in the comments because I want you to take a moment and think about it first.
I would like to hope no one nation is the future. Replacing one global hegemony with another is not my idea of progress.
I'm onboard with Wales. Let Wales rule for a bit.
Oh my, I can't even begin to imagine what a Texan or Creole Welsh accent would sound like if that was the international language! ๐ตโ๐ซ
*sneezes* *snorts* *coughs* *clears throat* *yodelays*
I'm sorry, what was your question
In one sense, as a key component of the UK, they already had that chance somewhere between the years of 1600-ish to 1945-ish.
Heh, I think you've just pissed off Welsh/Irish/Scottish people with that sentiment.
Ehhhhh we Scots should probably not argue too hard. Unlike the other two we joined mostly-voluntarily and were doing our own small scale empire thing beforehand as well. We were rubbish at it, but I don't think there are sympathy points for incompetence. The Welsh and Irish definitely got dragged along wthout a say though
