A thread here talking about "ahh" had an evil twin version appear on 
. Over here, just about all the criticism was against the idea of self-censorship and hating it based on that idea. Over on the other side, I saw a bunch of people hating it for that sure, but a bunch was also talking about how, "uneducated" it makes you sound and how it's similar to things like the "aks" pronunciation of ask, the phrase "gyat damn" or "finna". The whole time I'm reading that wondering if they're that unaware of where the association comes from or if they're just dog-whistling. Unlike their sweet dems, they seem almost unaware of how their behavior is akin to the smiling Fox. (Hint as to the common denominator between these terms: they're staples of AAVE).
