Gen Z appropriating AAVE and turning it mainstream is probably one of the most annoying things I have to deal with as a black person. Like, yeah, I shouldn’t gatekeep language, but can they at least give credit?
Hello! I’m a POC (black/latino) autistic/ADHD dragon from Brazil. I use he/they/it pronouns, and my interests are usually gaming and drawing. Reddit refugee after getting banned multiple times for “threatening violence” for standing up against fascism.

This is literally just banning AAVE in class. That teacher probably thinks she’s an anti-racist “ally”.
I’ve only not punched a Nazi because I don’t live in America and they’re usually around the very southern part of the country while I live in the northeast. Plus, being a Nazi here is illegal.

Good thing we can just block instances/communities so we don’t need to ever listen to their bullshit drivel.
Redditors thinking they’re the first line of defense against fascism is hilarious. The call is coming from inside the house.
Also, anyone who refers to themselves as “high IQ” is not worth listening to. In fact they might be even stupider than anyone who’s actually intelligent.
It’s a joke statement based on real behavior from radfems. Maybe you should do some research?
“terfs are not violent psychopaths, we’re normal people trying to protect women, which is why we say hitleresque statements about men and consider any woman who doesn’t fit our narrow view of what a woman is to be either a gender traitor or a man in disguise even if they’re cis”
All a politician needs to do is look up pictures of medieval peasants carrying shitty politician’s heads on pikes and they’ll quickly remember lol
People in LA are certainly doing so! And it’s spreading everywhere in the US.
Because I got banned for “threatening violence” one too many times and every case was me making a joke about getting rid of fascists by any means necessary.
I think there’s a combination of teenage angst and MAYBE uh. Anti-natalist sentiment. You should probably check if he’s going to forums related to that.

This is an Acer Aspire ES1-512 with integrated Intel graphics, so I am still betting it’s likely the RAM stick that decided it didn’t want to be alive anymore. Luckily for me I can get a new 8 GB DDR3L stick for like 12 USD.
I mean all that I ask really is for people to know the meaning and where those terms came from, not just repeat them like it’s some sort of trendy thing to say.
