  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Anyone else feel guilty when bad grammar is explained by aave? I understand it's cultural but it feels patronizing af

Language is largely an arbitrary collection of rules consensually agreed upon. It's no wonder that throughout history, it has been the ruling classes that spoke the most “correctly” and the poor that spoke “incorrectly.” Grammar is a tool of social control.

Free your mind.

It’s not bad grammar. It’s different grammar than the “Standard American English” most of us learned in school, and sometimes described as bad grammar for generally racist historical reasons.
