Almost certainly, these people hate working class language, but they can't say that out loud, so hide it behind false pretexts.
- foldr 4y agoThere’s not really anything to stop me saying ‘out loud’ on HN that I don’t like working class people, if that were something I wanted to say. In fact I think it would be rather less likely to get me downvoted than posting in support of gender inclusive language :) I’d be intrigued to know who ‘these people’ are, though, as I am apparently one of them.
