"a leading international bigotry professional": dream job!

Actually, I can think of a number of professional politicians that could qualify, but in a different sense.

EDIT: I am just now seeing your long post on Sloterdijk, which looks interesting.  I've only read his old bestseller, and even then I think I was missing more than I was gleaning.  He's become a controversial figure since then, it seems.

Doing a grand Venn diagram makes me into someone who's half Breton, half Romanian.....

As a Romanian, I find the slicing to be quite correct save four items: Romanians are religious, not atheists; we drink both beer and wine and vodka; we are not emotionally repressed in the least; we are just as Old Europe as any other people such designated.

Yep, 'vodka Europe' is far too large - consumption of beer has been larger than that of vodka since the '80s.
And what's with 'good cuisine' and 'bad cuisine' Someone doesn't want us to send our porcinos, chantarelles, or reindeer to them. Maybe it would just be better to put it this way: people who spend more time cooking (North) / eating (South).
I am outraged by the slight inaccuracies in some of these prejudices!

And what's with 'good cuisine' and 'bad cuisine'

From my experience: Dutch/Swedish cuisine bad, French/Italian/Spanish/Greek cuisine good; and I wouldn't even qualify what the Dutch or Swedes eat as "cuisine"...
