Is this post-irony? This is the exact same logic racists use.

No, it’s not the exact same logic, because I’m not discussing people’s immutable characteristics; I’m discussing communication styles, which are mutable, and the ideologies that tend to be associated with them, which are also mutable.

It's literally the exact same logic, because racists discuss people's mutable characteristics as well.

You literally just described "SPEAK ENGLISH" and "if only Black people spoke properly and wore their pants up above their waist" (both mutable characteristics).

This has to be post-irony. Good troll.
