while aave shouldnt be stolen, the post itself is from r/copypasta which is a “meme” subreddit and the original poster has also posted some offensive things as well https://twitter.com/t5bio/status/1265815684765724673
from what ive been able to find, this is moreso a meme making fun of aave and is not the best reference for which words are not okay to say. some of these words have other origins (ghetto[jewish roots?], hella[CA], etc) and are not considered aave? (please correct me if im wrong)
definition of a copypasta!! a famous example is like “What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300... cont”
there’s A LOT of words that originated from aave and would honestly be impossible to not say bc its become so ubiquitous (like the words in the oic) so i think its important to at least give credit for where the words are from.
please read this and the link in the tweet replies! it goes in depth with aave and when its “okay” to use. https://twitter.com/sugawaragf/status/1265856815503478785
