I don't keep up with this stuff. How many of the NAFO guys are pedophiles and how many are fascists and what's the Venn diagram on that look like?

By the by, I was interested in the discussion about food memes being used as a cover for really obvious racism. I wasn't sure if this was something a lot of people were encountering, but I learned new slurs from a Twitter thread about the proper way to season chicken.

There's a really good Radio War Nerd episode from a month or two back about the whole NAFO thing that goes into how vile a lot of the people behind it are.

A lot of that is actively trying to not do an accent, most of us are smart enough to not want to risk doing a Speedy Gonzales by accident. We're gonna get dinged for something anyway, but it's best to minimize what you can, you know?

Also, "rother".

i hate this though, like texans purposefully mispronouncing "fajj-ih-tahs". obama took some poo poo for saying "pokkiston" but you won't sound like you're doing a minstrel show if you pronounce things correctly

the only problem is when a spanish speaker hears you say something correctly and assumes you're fluent

in conclusion, peggy hill was trying, dammit

You say this, but we cannot ever trust our instincts about anything where other people may observe us and then write another article about how much we suck.

I have this problem because I have perfect French pronunciation but I'm too dumb to learn the language. I've actually started intentionally having an accent again so people will talk slow enough that I can kind of keep up.

Code switching to “correctly” pronounce words like “burrito” makes anyone who isn’t a native speaker seem like a dickhead. I’m speaking English here, you can’t make me roll an R.

Is it a tor-tilla or a tor-teeya? Because you are already code switching it’s just you can’t roll your Rs and bear this shame poorly

Thanks for the recommend, that was a great listen. I figured the NAFO guys were dumbfucks but I didn't realize that they're Anime Nazis for whom this was the next step after Frenworld. I mean, I guess there's no way to poll NAFO people and know for certain, but even setting aside that Kamil Dyszewski is a Nazi, all the features are there: the coordinated trolling, the sincere demand for genocide masked as just goofin', the infighting and the need to periodically devour one of their own as a human sacrifice, and the way that most of these guys, if and when they reveal themselves, embody the stereotype of the loser nerd in mom's basement.

It makes me wonder what value there actually is in militaries controlling the memespace. How would we ever know if it even has potential to swing diplomatic outcomes in your favour?

Speaking from Brazil, it certainly does create a hard little (or not so little) 'core' of opposition to nominally progressive/independent government that always needs to be pacified and danced around.

The local press is just losing its poo poo we're going for the BRICS thing, and lots of otherwise respectable people think this means the crazy reds are gearing up to invade Florida any day now.
