Before you complain about people speaking other languages – learn your own

Poke Staff. Updated June 3rd, 2023

Back in 2019, this image went wildly viral.

The patch accidentally said far more than it meant to, and tweeters picked up on it.

There’s no shame in struggling with spelling, but if you’re coming for people because they can speak other languages – you really need to get your own house in order first.

A Redditor called u/NormalFinding46746 shared the image again, this time on r/Facepalm, naming the post ‘He didn’t even get his own language correct’.

It picked up 18,000 upvotes in less than a day, as well as comments like these –

Someone make him learn English.

Me fail English? That’s unpossible.

A lot of “illigils” have taken English language courses. Maybe they can help him.

This embroidery should be illigal.

He speaks bigot.

I’m embarrassed I only speak one language.

My wife speaks 3 (Polish, French, English), and my kids are already bilingual (Polish, English).

They just love their self righteous indignation, doesn’t matter if it’s never happened. Maybe he called the bank and the recording said to press one for English. That really sets the small minds off.

That’s a lot of words to say “I’m too dumb and lazy to learn new things.”

baronmerc had another piece of information for the patch wearer.

Last time I checked the US has no official language so does that mean every language is foreign.

While Aromatic-brother suspected the bigot had been stitched up.

I like to think the person who made that patch knew what he was doing.
