Empires also made use of boats, hammers, and electricity. Imperialism has been conducted in French, Spanish, Japanese, and many other languages. Many strikes and other labor mobilizations have been organized in English. Replacing English as an international standard (though it’s an unofficial one) is extremely difficult, and doing so for such a petty reason is annoying at best, heckling at worst.
I get your point, but I don’t think it can realistically happen. We can’t even saved dying languages.
Also mixing languages does not work well… just look at English.
If we could magically change to another language, I vote Japanese or Spanish as they are really effective t languages when you look at the amount of information that is communicated compared to syllables spoken.
Spain was the most fascistic and genocidal country that this Earth has seen! Fuck Spanish! I say this as someone who is from a Spanish-speaking country, but who hates Spain because they genocided all the native population from my country and enslaved my ancestors. Death to Spain!!!
You are entitled to believe that “realistically”anything cannot happen. I dont agree since people have constantly created languages in history and we all somehow picked the language of the empire now.
We could all just “realistically” make a new language and decide to use it. All that stop us now is Anglo-empire influence.
You are right that we could. But we won’t. Learning a language is difficult, it is very difficult and takes years and years of practice and study. Additionally, you need to get the large majority of the world to support this universal language.
Most people do not care to learn a new language. Most people who learned a second language already learned English. Realistically, they are not going to want to put that effort to waste.
I get your points, but do you think what you are suggesting is realistic? Do you think it could be done in a way that does not benefit the current countries who are in power? Do you think countries will even be able to agree on a new language?

It is the language of the colonial empire and of white supremacy.
We should change it to a new language created from mixing all languages in the world, and not just Euro languages.

Yeah, it only mixes Euro languages
Not entirely, there’s plenty of English and Spanish used by Filipinos and English used by Indians

Every language is associated with a region. What language do you recommend?

The language predates the genocide, I do not see the problem with this language.
The language was spread through genocide and it does not predate genocide.
