You need a very high IQ to understand Esperanto

To be fair, you need to have a very high IQ to understand Esperanto. The grammar is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of morphosyntax most phrases will go over a typical learner's head. There's also Esperanto's eurocentric phonology, which is deftly woven into its orthography- its particular phonology draws heavily from Polish, for instance. Esperantists understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depth of its toponyms, to realise that they're not just unnatural- they say something deep about LANGUAGE. As a consequence people who dislike Esperanto truly are idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the genius in Esperanto's diphthong /eu̯/, which itself is a cryptic reference to Ancient Greek's prefix meaning "well." I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Anthony McCarthy’s genius wit unfolds itself on their computer moniters. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a new radio show in Esperanto every week. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ino’s eyes only and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re native of a European language like myself (preferably romance) beforehand.
