As a copywriter who writes for ada in the social space, I honestly refuse to use slang in my work. It’s so cringey and appropriative so I can’t bring myself to do it. I’ll continue to gatekeep our language cause ummm…it ain’t for everybody.
Ain’t nothing wrong with code switching it’s how we get by (and gatekeep our language fr its not for everybody!) I hate seeing people explain and break things down about our culture for the understanding/ consumption for the masses like no actually they don’t need to know that
