There is no point. Every good foreign book is translated into English, so English is the only language you need to know in order to read everything worthwhile. Foreign books translated into English make up a kind of Criterion Collection of literature from around the world. If you learn another language, the only thing you gain is the ability to read books that weren't good enough to be translated into English. It's a poor investment of time and energy.

>There is no point to learning a new language, because [ideology deleted], and this is why I'm sticking to English only.

To not be ashamed when the judge of all dead asks me what i did with my life.

Dementia is a wide group of things. The leading cause of dementia is Alzheimers disease. Apparently bilingualism in illiterates results in offsetting alzheimers more than being a literate monolingual

The phenomenon that you speak of is actually a byproduct of your anglo ancestors being cucked by literally frog people for quite a few decades (centuries)
