  So true. People are likely being fucked up by poor autocorrect algos, as I noticed even mine messing up and turned it off outright, because I blind type like 89wpm on my phone anyway so I’m fine without it. Then they’re defending it like ignorant fools that they are, reasoning backwards and perpetuating anti-intellectualism

    One could also argue that language degrades. Just a matter of perspective. Evolution implies it’s good, but a lot of this evolution is little more than losing language features or clarity.
