I feel in this thread that everyone has jumped the shark.

Here, have some Carlin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuEQixrBKCc

After getting in a good belly laugh - GET BACK TO WORK.

That's actually the most offensive part of it, that participants in an i18n software project, think their country is so much more important than everyone else’s, that they deserve to hijack the project public technical documentation in i18n English, and make it a vehicle for statements on their own internal petty political conflicts.

And then they compound it by discussing endlessly if the statement is in good or poor taste, without caring if it is smart or kind to treat contributors and users of other countries as second class humans.
