>French-Canadians who go to Florida for the winter. There is nothing lower than a Canadian who flees the cold, it is your civic duty to dislike snowbirds.

I thought they went to those islands in the Carribean that was proposed to join Canada?

I think there is quite a distinction between saying 'I'm proud to be Canadian' and 'I'm proud of what my ancestors did to the aboriginals'. I don't know about you, but I'm sure in general society the two are not part-and-parcel.

It'd be the same with the Chinese-Canadians: a Lunar New Year march is a bit different from them walking down the street in Communist garbs shouting for the death of imperialist nations.

Reminds me how in Boston they have those 'Irish-American' marches where people dress up and openly flaunt their 1/8th genetic lineage.

Is there any other object for which quality and monetary value are inversly correlated?

'Tribalism' is natural but exactly 'who' is your tribe is absolutely up to your personal reasoning.

I myself am a third culture kid so I don't really consider anyone my 'group' besides my close friends and family.

Of course others are different and have that clear ethnic identity which while understanable is still completely foreign to me lol

When and where did he write this?

Also as a halfie myself I'm curious what European Chinese are like lol. I've heard there are quite a large number in France and Italy.

As a third culture kid I found Stirner especially liberating

Wait why do we need to overcome it? Don't we already have it in most of our languages?

Duolinguo is unironically pretty good for getting started off anon

Also like others in this thread mentioned, having both the 'I WANT to learn this' mindset the same way you have the 'I feel like getting sushi today' attitude + having a friend who's fluent is the key.

If I didn't have a friend who was fluent in Mandarin I'd honestly be pretty fucking shit tbqhwy desu

what do you drink while you write? for me, it's coffee or bourbon

what are some books with main characters similar to this guy?

>author thanks the reader for their patience

Holy fuck you people are brain-dead. How many "NPC" threads do we really need? Tell me, does an NPC actually discuss literature, or does he spam the same thread over and over again?
