I don't exactly understand Google's response. "[Many of the tickets in this database are merely flags and not actual incidents. The issue in question is over six years old. It was deemed non-intentional.]" Equivocating?

I see plenty of content in my feed on lemmy. I don't think it's dead.

Is it really unprovable? A quick search online for me reveals a lot of spilled pixels on the subject of how age is correlated with communication styles in various media. I think Gretchen McCulloch wrote about this even.

I don't see why it's bad to talk about these things. I'll admit, OP's language here was rather inflammatory. But some people say what you're saying regarding ebonics, yet AAVE has become one of the biggest fields in linguistics today. "Stereotype" doesn't necessarily mean "problematic to acknowledge."

Sure, if civilisation as we know it collapses. In the eventuality that it doesn't, we still need clean power.

I've observed the same thing. The phenomenon is real, even if it's a generalization. How would you communicate this idea in a polite way? "A certain way of communicating by text that is predominantly displayed by the geriatric population"?
