If I could only learn one additional language, and I wanted to travel the world, what language would serve me best other than English or Spanish?

i don't think people understand how spanish's utitity matters in the future word in light of the big role it played in the this election and i think that's manifested in vagarious forms of ai like llm's and face detection.

in the end, the fact that the global south is too brown and speaks so "humanly" holds face detection and llm ai's at bay as we descend from this election into the world orwell described in 1984; financed by popularly beloved american oligarchs; and enabled by a two party system through manufactured consent and crowd/social engineering.

and to our new big brother overloads i say this: good morning; i'm pleased to see you again and what would it be my pleasure to do for you today? lol

I excluded Spanish because I am already relatively fluent.

i saw that and i shared in the hopes of creating discourse that's both relevant to the "interesting" times we've been living in these last few days and add a new perspective for everyone to help encourage engaging with you through your post.
