[rightwingcrazy]

“So that AAVE is reserved for the people who created it and grew up speaking it”

Imagine if English were like that.

[rottndog]

Uneducated idiot...’thug’ is race neutral.

Lizzo recently called out white people for “talking like Black people.”

Don't dis Barbara Billingsley.

[MeanWestTexan]

Lizzo recently called out white people for “talking like Black people.”

Lizzo should be pleased to know that I have never, and would never, talk that way.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Wish she would just roll away.

And, as I was a flute major at uni, she’s not even mediocre. And I SERIOUSLY have my doubts she was even playing Madison’s crystal flute at the L of C and getting that tone. It was dubbed/mimed, IMHO, for “cred”.

[rfp1234]

Bring Back the Truck Scales.

[Tzimisce]

To me it is virtually unrecognizable as a language of which I am capable of understanding. AAVE promoters can keep their language. Just don’t expect me to understand or respect it. It’s just a crutch to compensate for not learning English in school or being committed to communicating at the best level possible.

[struggle]

"Hey, bro, let's kill this honky b*tch!"
