nah mate don't patronize me for using the wrong fork when I'm hungry and just trying to eat. That's some nouveau riche like grammar opinions. Many people with an experienced grasp on English end up coming into the wisdom that correcting someone's grammar isn't worth it 95% of the time. If you can understand them then they've communicated clearly. Who cares if they use a semicolon improperly or insert a comma split?

Ah, but it can also be patronizing to assume that the reason you shouldn't be corrected on your fork usage is that people like you don't have manners; only people like me do.

This is a weird take for me, because my assumption isn’t that those people don’t have manners, it’s that they have their own set of manners which are no more or less objectively correct than the ones I was taught.

But maybe that’s not the common assumption and more a product of knowing a few linguists and anthropologists?

NAYRT and nevermind that, forget colonization, a lot of 'correcting' is rooted in classism and racism, like telling a black person that you wouldn't know they were black just by hearing them speak...

Obviously there's a time and place for proper SPAG (some work emails, policies, papers, etc), but it's not a clear-cut 'if I don't correct someone's spelling/grammar the world will collapse!'.

Who said anything about the world collapsing?

If it's not a big deal as all that, then why do people carry on like someone might die if a spelling mistake is allowed to be created uncorrected?

People like that are dicks.
