  • Least politically progressive minds on earth? (by nation)

    Macleans' magazine recently polled their overseas readers for "The top 10 nationalities in the world which harbour a less than progressive perception of life outside of their own respective relms"; and recieved the highest number of votes for the aforementioned nationalities

    Is this a fair view from their readers? Most of the response was compiled from the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, and South Africa. So what does Apolyton think?

          That's nice of them, but that kind of thread won't fly here, unless you want to name change it to something a little less baiting?

          I'll give you a few to think of something else. And don't bother pulling a Zylka on me.

              I don't like calling any nationality ignorant.. but the governments these nationalities could be. Take the French government for example. And the Cuban government too.. stupid communist one that Agathon is always clamoring about, which even other leftists wouldn't even think about defending.
              For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                    Isn't that just who looks down, and knows least, about other nationalities? That would be America for me, as they seem to want to change everywhere to fit their ideals, which might not be such a bad thing, but I think they look down on other nations, and know the least about them (I remember Bush not knowing the shape of the US, nor where London was not that that is a good measure of course ). Possibly Russia too.

                    As for most ignorant, I have no idea at all.

                        Oh... this thread is toast.
                        “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

                          A little odd, but passable.
