I got an email a few days ago from one of the banks i do business with. It read something like privacy notice and language practices now. I decided to read it and to my astonishment it said that from here on out they would only communicate in English.
Is this a company simply cutting costs? Or is it a sign of the good times coming? I dunno but i found it interesting
Both. Cutting cost is really about allowing market forces to do their work, and thats a good sign because it means no external influences.
It also woos people like me.
I actively SHUN gas stations and convenience stores with prominent signs in Spanish!
I BOYCOTT COMPANIES shoving Spanish in my face!
Amusingly, I am, or was, well trained in 4 years of Ivy League Spanish and a couple years of dead languages such as Latin.
In 2024, I associate Spanish speakers with illegal alien invaders, welfare leaches, criminals, shoplifters, and non-compliant mildly belligerent patients.
If I had time to vacation, zero remaining hispanic nations are on my list, nowadays, zero, but if forced... Costa Rica, if a private guard staff on duty
