You’re still talking like language has to follow the rules.
That is clearly false. Refer to what I said in the very comment that you’re replying to: “That is not about people following/not following “rules”, it’s about nomenclature”
Please stop misrepresenting what I said.
I gave you a link, lots of people have talked about this, it’s not just some idea I came up with.
You’re implying that I claimed that you came up with this. I did not.
The link does not contradict what I said. It’s simply using a different nomenclature, using the acronym “AAVE” to the whole instead of strictly the vernacular varieties.
The informative content there (i.e. beyond definitions) is mostly accurate, but contrariwise to what you’re implying, I am not contradicting it.
I don’t know how to put it anymore plainly, I’m sorry if you still don’t understand
Emphasis mine. Drop off the passive aggressiveness; the one here not understanding shit is you, as shown by the fact that you’re consistently distorting what I said.
I’m not bothering further with you. Go put words on someone else’s mouth.

That’s backwards. The rules change to follow the language
Ain’t you old enough to have heard “ain’t ain’t a word because it ain’t in the dictionary”?
Well, now it is.
And now the dictionary lists “figuratively” as one of the definitions for “literally”.
Insist on following rules, and the dictionary wouldn’t update.
