Re: AAE doesn't actually exist as "a language".

"The two "AAE" messages that were rated toxic *ARE* toxic and offensive to many, "

Seeing an ass is "offensive to many"? Why? Over-sensitive prudes or is human anatomy so offensive just by existing that they *have to take offence* any time it's mentioned, even if not to them?

Offence is taken, not given.

Donkeys so bad? As there's *0* context, you don't and can't know if it was referrering to donkey.

6% toxic is totally absurd in that context. I call BS: 0% toxic and even less offensive.

Also "offensive to many" ... but not you *personally*? Again these people who take offence *for other people* so they don't have to bother, totally not caring at all if anyone else is actually taking offence. Why people like this exist in the first place?

If someone wants to take offence, they can comment themselves. Which part of that is too complex for you?
