Ah, les états d’origine des galés. Fueron les révolutionnaires silencieux et les escurridizos Padres Fundadores. Ce sont les chicos et les chicas qui ont essentiellement construit le pays. Vous allez ensuite disparaître dans le papier peint comme si vous deviez de l’argent !
Ah, los estadounidenses de origen galés. Fueron los revolucionarios silenciosos y los escurridizos Padres Fundadores. Estos son los chicos y chicas que básicamente construyeron la mitad del país. ¡Y luego desaparecieron en el papel pintado como si debieran dinero!
Ah, Americans of Welsh origin. They were the quiet revolutionaries and the sneaky Founding Fathers. These are the guys and gals who basically built half the USA. Then, they vanished into the wallpaper like they owed money!

NB Our service provider OpenAI could not process our prompt due to a moderation system. We have been asked to rephrase it, changing potentially problematic words, and try again. This is censorship at its crudest. They can of course go **** themselves.
My Gran had a stock response to expressions of racism, prejudice, and xenophobia in her presence. It was invariably, “We are all God’s children.” She loved all children, everywhere.
Let’s switch focus.
The Israel-Palestinian strife is unrelenting. It has now dragged into its third sinful, evil and merciless year. The true measure of this catastrophe is not land seized. It is not the strategies pursued. It is the stolen futures of innocent children. These are not mere statistics; they are lives extinguished, dreams crushed, families shattered forever. We face the human abyss of global crises. The cold data from UN agencies demands our moral outrage. It calls for urgent action.
Oh, Europe, pronounced terminal yet again. This time, a Radically Human Ventures sage delivers the verdict. He is part probability theorist and part story-driven paterfamilias. He assigns the continent a 5% chance of civilisational survival. Meanwhile, he composes a moist-eyed farewell to the “Old Continent.” It’s an elegy made from familiar spare parts. It includes a dash of Peter Zeihan’s geopolitical fatalism and a sprinkle of Silicon Valley panel wisdom. There’s a belief that the future will be dominated by two AI giants. In this scenario, Europe is merely a polite museum gift shop.
What countries in the world have a reputation for arrogance and ignorance?
No country exclusively holds arrogance or ignorance. However, certain nations consistently top international surveys. They often appear in global stereotypes. People frequently use these stereotypes, often unfairly. This happens when asked, “Which nationality comes across as arrogant and/or clueless about the rest of the world?” The usual suspects, based on recurring data from sources like Pew Global Attitudes, YouGov international polls, Statista, Reddit’s r/AskReddit mega-threads, and expat forums, are most frequently named for arrogance

What will the UK look like ‘post-Brexit?
Will Brexit result, as I read on Twitter, in the UK “taking back what we never lost to lose everything we currently have.”?
My concern is about what could happen to the people in the UK when we have finally run-away from Europe.
With Brussels gone, with the EU and the Single Market gone, with our EU citizenship ripped from our cold dead hands, who will Brexiteers have to complain about once we have become an isolated, tiny and populous ex-colonialist island to the east of New Jersey?

Like him or loath him, the fact of the matter is that the 45th President of the USA is Donald Trump.
Many see him as a blow-dried extrovert who can close big business deals and get the important jobs done. Others see him as an uncouth, ignorant and potty-mouthed bully, totally unfit for any public office – even that of dog-catcher.
He may have lots of detractors both sides of the beltway, but Donald Trump, who has been compared favourably with Andrew Jackson, has retained considerable support, especially in the rustbelt and coal mining communities.
