tfw you realize that "this massive continent only has one language" is a belief that directly results from imperialism wiping out the hundreds of other languages that used to be in North America.
Sometimes people will try to point to the Chinese adoption of Mandarin as an official lingua franca as some kind of equivalent form of colonialism, and it's just not.
As always, the context of how Mandarin Chinese became prominent is absent in smug libs and their "analysis"
