as well as dying to not lose honor.
While recognising the differences in our attitudes towards life, this evoked from me a very big WTF.
Not just because your life is all you have while honor is basically someone's opinion, but also because it's not even as much as one whole step away from being prepared to kill people for your own honor.
- fjdlwlv 10y agoParent poster said they want to die (and presumably kill, for what else would risk dying?) to prevent them from _speaking a different language_ near posters's home, so I don't think killing for honor will give them pause.
- EliRivers 10y agoYes, that was a bit of a trip to read. "I wouldn't quite mind dying for things like my language to be dominant in my home and spoken by my leaders" I wonder if the parent poster's language is currently the dominant language or a minority language. There are people who already kill and die for their culture to become dominant.
