  • how polarized people are
  • how stupid people are
  • that a single culture is not possible, it has already been tried 2x and failed

What do you mean with a single culture?

like ussr. even thought there's no reason to have more than 1 language. language is just a channel for communication, people don't get that. they want to be unique and that causes problems

If the one language was perfect, sure. But language is a lot more than just a way of communicating. It's a part of many peoples identity and there's a lot of art (lyric, songs, opera) that often doesn't translate well to a different language.

What I'd like would be a sort of basic language that is being taught worldwide so that its possible to communicate everywhere.
