@gdinwiddie@mastodon.social Spanish of course being an indigenous lanugage of the Americas.

@Scrimshaw9@mastodon.social @gdinwiddie@mastodon.social Spanish isn't the first language of the Americas.
It's entirely a colonial and imperialist language.
Replying to
@Mabande@mastodon.social @gdinwiddie@mastodon.social The quote is a social comment about the English language in the Americas representing colonialism and imperialism.
But it doesn't acknowledge that Spanish speakers in the Americas represent Spanish colonialism and imperialism.

@Scrimshaw9@mastodon.social @gdinwiddie@mastodon.social I'm sorry you have missed the nuances of the quote.

Perhaps English isn't your first language.
