minus-squareipkpjersi@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoI might as well double down while I’m here, “we don’t take kindly” was too aggressive wording. I meant something more neutral like “I think y’all are weird”. That way, the y’all is the problematic part. That was my point.
minus-squareRevan343@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoNope, “y’all” is still not the problematic part
