Dittoburg, in the “old country”, do people try to “correct” their accents, like Eliza Doolittle and Henry Higgins? Or is this an act of betrayal which causes you to lose your entire social support system?
“I do believe that certain people who identify themselves as Republicans are extremely dangerous folks who use racial and class-based politics to achieve their own aims, whatever those may be.”
Same can be said for ultra-left wing Liberal Democrats.
“There, you can add racism to global warming and tax policy on the list of things I have 100% solved.”
Jackal, you belong on this Monty Python skit:
Alan: Well, last week we showed you how to become a gynaecologist. And this week on ‘How to do it’ we’re going to show you how to play the flute, how to split an atom, how to construct a box girder bridge, how to irrigate the Sahara Desert and make vast new areas of land cultivatable, but first, here’s Jackie to tell you all how to rid the world of all known diseases.
Jackie: Hello, Alan.
Alan: Hello, Jackie.
Jackie: Well, first of all become a doctor and discover a marvellous cure for something, and then, when the medical profession really starts to take notice of you, you can jolly well tell them what to do and make sure they get everything right so there’ll never be any diseases ever again.
Alan: Thanks, Jackie. Great idea. How to play the flute. (picking up a flute) Well here we are. You blow there and you move your fingers up and down here.
Noel: Great, great, Alan. Well, next week we’ll be showing you how black and white people can live together in peace and harmony, and Alan will be over in Moscow showing us how to reconcile the Russians and the Chinese. So, until next week, cheerio.

“And yes, I suspect more than anyone else here I’ve done my part to “‘fuck someone for world peace.'”
If not world peace, certainly you’ve fostered peace with Southeast Asia and Mexico.
dittoburg,
