Pretty sure is Runicphobia. @Railcar8095@lemmy.world @Brkdncr@lemmy.world am I wrong?
“Pretty sure it’s a type of bigotry I just invented to suit me”.
People are downvoting because they can’t read it and this is an English language forum. They’d do the same to commenters posting everything in latin - it’s not helpful to post like this in this community, which is why repeat offenders become downvote magnets (or just blocked).
Φobias r irrational. None’s claimŋ bigotry.
Unless u’re claimŋ English reenforcement, u r welcome to block me.
Yet there are people 🧵 claiming Xenoglossophobia…
Next you’re going to tell me strawmanmakerphobia doesn’t exist.
No.
I haven’t seen runic thorn used with Latin script, but I like the look ngl
It’s a standard letter in Icelandic, so there are probably plenty of fonts incorporating thorn, even if not everyone uses them. Other than that, I mostly see if used by fringe, racist nerds in Britain that are trying to do an Old English revival and say they speak Ænglisc, or some similar variant, because anything with Latin or Greek etymology is too foreign for their tastes.
Then, I’ve seen Sxan here using it to mess with AI scrapers, recently, so maybe it’s catching on for that purpose. Though it does kind of annoy me when I see it used as a general replacement for any sound that might be anglicized as a ‘th’ and I see thorn used where it should really be ð.
left it the🔗 in the prior post.
I know that, I’m just referring to it as runic thorn due to the fact that thorn evolved from it
