"It doesn't affect me"
This makes my blood boil
We all have accents & no ones is better than another’s it does not make one smarter or somehow more deserving
Let’s leave the 1700/1800s behind
Class systems destroy & divide & wont make any culture thrive

"This linguistic stereotyping goes beyond the way that someone’s speech is viewed; it’s also about who gets to be heard, respected, and included."

If you’re drawn to a politician because they promise to be cruel to Muslims or Jews or immigrants or gays or transgender people etc, the least you should do - the absolute, bare bones, still morally vacuous least - is ask yourself whether they’re likely to stop at the group you want to see targeted.

It is obvious but worth repeating that regimes built on lies survive only as long as they can suppress truth. The promotion of complicit media (alternative facts) & denigration of objective media (facts) is not just desirable but essential. This process is being turbo-charged in the USA right now.

They want you to be frightened
They want you distracted
They want you to feel powerless
Don’t fed them
You are stronger smarter & more resilient than you can ever imagine
