Quarto said:Wow, so Japan is a part of the Western civilisation now?
BarFly said:(...) Hey what do you think when people in Germany or France say about the Polish: " They are all, but honest"
This is stupid, we all know!

okay lets say - the poltical correctness is missing. And besides, the Cold War is over for quite a while.
For lots of Europeans it is always astonishing how the Americans (Correct: US- Citizens) are thinking they would lead us also in Future .
But this would turn out into a political discussion, we do NOT do here.
I just wrote what I didn't like at this game.
And believe me, also German Game Magazines did not like this plot.

When have you been at Stuttgart the last time?
ChrisReid said:Yeah, don't people typically refer to Japan as a pretty "Westernized" nation? The concepts of the Global South and Westernized Cultures kind of go beyond technical hemisphere lines. I'm picturing a spread from one of my old poli sci textbooks that had a complex line demarking Australia as a societal "North/Western" country and China as a "South" nation.

Well, this, I'll admit, is quite a surprise - may I ask how old you are? It's not very often we get people around here that were anywhere in 1963 .BarFly said:I do have Hungarian Roots and about 20 Cousins (My Grandparents, 2 Uncles and 2 Aunts were also living there) are still living there. And the first time I was in Hungary, was 1963!
Three points -And NO! Russians are not the Bad ones. Hey what do you think when people in Germany or France say about the Polish: " They are all, but honest"
This is stupid, we all know!
Quarto said:Political correctness forces us these days to pretend that it's the individual that counts, but nothing could be further from the truth, because individuals are the product of their society, and by extension, of the government and the national education system.
Political correctness is a bunch of different things. One minute, they'll be telling you that it's wrong to generalise about all members of a given nation sharing some behavioural attribute... and then the next, they'll be telling you that you can't blame a criminal for his actions because it's society that forced him do it.Delance said:I don't think Political Correctness does that. The whole idea that someone's behavior can be credited, or blamed, to society is a very PC one.
