I’m not saying the use of y’all is blackface, I’m making a comparison to show that what the dumbass above said is the exact same kind of obvious bullshit deflection these people use when they’re acting in snide bad faith and want you to know it. They always try to sound folksy and relatable to give a tissue-thin veneer of humanity to their horribly inhuman ideas. “Y’all could’ve had a girlboss who gives the police more robots!” And then when you call them on it it it’s all “Oh, why do you hate (X group I’m pretending to speak for this week)?”
I def could have made it clearer that i was making an example and not an accusation, but that would have required more words than the person I responded to is worth. You on the other hand, are chill and worth elaborating to.
It’s also right, in my opinion, to connect it to race. Yes, it is a cross-race cultural thing in the South but Black people popularized it outside of the South.
If a non-Southern White person says y’all, I cringe.
