> people from the south
Is such a useless broadbrush; it exists only as a dogwhistle for “reverse-discrimination” (which isn’t a thing; that’s just discrimination).
Make no mistake the southern drawl cannot be masked. *Everyone knows*. Words and actions give one away more than the drawl.
- TulliusCicero 4y agoNah, it can definitely be masked. I doubt many people pick up that Stephen Colbert is from South Carolina. I had a coworker whose native accent was a southern one, out of Missouri, but he'd disguised it very effectively, if you met him you'd assume just another California techie.
