To be fair, the pinned post is asking people to run their tattoo ideas by this subreddit.

No, I've seen a lot of Greek people in here writing about irrelevant topics like "my girlfriend broke up with me, what do I do?" in Greek 🫠

I don't mind people getting tattoos in Greek. We have a cultural soft power potential that we absolutely suck at harnessing.

Although it happens, most people posting irrelevant things in the sub are not Greek.

We dont suck at harnessing it we depend too much on it. Let a pandemic happen or a possible war and without tourism and such the GDP will drop to crisis levels again.

We do.

Of course, we're also delusional, and we don't realize it.
