> Calling people “folks” all the time is lazy and insulting.

No it’s not. “Folks” means “people”, it has for more than a thousand years, and it’s used most often with the exact same intent. You’re making negative and incorrect assumptions.

But it is lazy. Sorry if folks feel obligated to defend it.

If you say so, though I can’t say I’m super convinced by your opinion; it doesn’t seem like you’ve made a reasonable case or brought any evidence. To be fair, it is legitimately hard to argue with the dictionary and all of history, but I wish you good luck communicating with others! BTW, did you intend for that to be a self-own?
