Maybe I should teach you geography instead. Holland is in Europe. And I dont have a good enough grasp of any language to teach it to anyone, nor would I move to a poor and unfree Asian country just to be hit on by qts (to be honest thats the only reason Western "English teachers"/weaboos go to Asia).
You literally need no skills other than the ability to speak English to go teach in Asia.

And people go there for more than just girls, considering how the schools will usually give you accommodation and travel allowances on top of your salary.

They have no right to bear arms though. Their society is also very fragmented and collectivist and you are only what your ancestors are. In general Id prefer to live outside of East Asia.



Its going to suck for you when china rules the world.

Don''t worry, dragon. By the time you''re in your forties you''ll be learning compulsory mandarin, and there''s nothing you can do to change that.

The Western AF could defeat the Chinese airforce and establish supremacy over the skies preventing China from transporting anything or anyone by plane. The Western economy could defeat the Chinese economy because the West can manufacture its own goods (albeit at higher cost) while China''s economy is reliant on Western consumption of its goods, which would stop in the event of a war.

Checkmate.

South Korea is screwed, though.
Well of course, China would be stupid to attack with the way things are now. I''m talking about how superior they will be a couple of decades into the future.

Afghanistan vs the brits, the russians and the usa.

But its not really an army, its fighting a whole people. Poorly trained armied can be defeated, a people can only be vanquished.

to be fair russia won ger with technique of burnt earth(and the cossacks, true fact)+ the winter, ger demolished them otherwise, idk much abt those other wars. Well, from what I know vietnam almost won because of those C Chi tunnels + their perfect knowledge of the jungle
But u prob watched that movie with tom cruise The last Samurai where we see number is almost useless nowadays, sad movie tho (or u can just picture hiroshima)

You''re right, there is a concerted effort to do this and I am a part of it. In fact, I''m moving up the ranks. Does that frighten you, Mr. Legend? It should, because I am an evil, evil man who knows no limits and I want your property, I want your life, and above all else I want the minds of your unborn children.

If it was in the nature of good to always triumph over evil, then why do countries like the United States still exist?

I mean, I dont think anyone knows enough about this to declare whether it is irrational or not.
