          It’s a question about languages and you’re erroneously conflating that with race. Homie, this is not the hill for you to die on; and if you ever condescend to me like that again, we’re gonna start having problems. Wanna sit there and talk about “siding with the racists” and then play paternalist at the tail end of your fuckoff statement, fuck is wrong with you?

            Step back and look at the situation from the third person and ask yourself if you like what you see.

              So reality checking you didn’t work; I’ll tell it to you straight: log off for a week.

              Your conflation is flatly wrong. Language and race are not some linked quantity. There is no gene preventing a white man from speaking Swahili, or a Black woman from speaking German, Dutch, Russian, and Gaelic.

              Were I to allow that erroneous conflation to slide, I’d be committing a type of liberalism as we (unfortunately, as of right now) share a community. Your not even considering self-crit when it’s made as clear as I possibly Can make it that you’ve got the wrong end of the hook here is another. Log out, touch grass, do better; otherwise don’t darken my inbox again. I know what ‘verbally looking for a fight’ looks like; and you’re doing it right now. Chill the fuck out and log off.

        We do need a word for these kinda comments. People who are so dull, boring and insignificant that they spend their entire time online attempting to be offended at literally fucking everything and everyone

          I don’t think that’s what’s happening here and I don’t know of anyone who does that. Words do offend people, that is not something you have to try hard to do.

          I’m not a native English speaker and I don’t see how this could be offending. Or maybe this is some US thing?
