Assuming an entire argument is wrong because you don ' t understand it or are ignorant to certain facets of it . Someone I don ' t see often was hanging out with me and a few other people and she said something super ignorant and made me lose a lot of respect for her . She didn ' t understand the reverse argument so in her mind it is wrong or made up . <| sep |> That was a long comment , and I agreed with every statement you made . Thanks for saving me the typing ! <| sep |> I noticed immediately that she had a Danish accent , but it was very light . It was a fairly normal accent where I grew up though , as most people in my area spoke Norwegian , Swedish , or Danish as their secondary or primary languages . Also , OP , foreign language education is required in the US school system , and America is a very diverse country . So the entire comment about English being most Americans only language was very rude . As a first language it ' s normal , but fairly frequently not the only language .
