Okay, but maybe the lesson here is to leave AAVE alone so that it doesn't lose shape and meaning, and goes from some "cool" slang to something that white supremacists appropriate and then shape it into an unrecognizable dogwhistle. Like..."woke"...
#stories from the void#this is actually strategically savyy#leave AAVE alone#and you have less semiotic information#available for white supremacists to appropriate and utilize as vectors of communication#since you would rather bash your head against a wall#than respecting Black people#interestingly enough fighting against antiblackness#actually benefits you
