Sorry dude, these are commonly used expressions for like the last 60 years man. Why don’t you just enjoy the wide range of words used to communicate between humans friend? The history of our language. Hell ya brother should be read in the voice of Macho Man Randy savage. It adds some flair to the words when the reader understands the context.
We should try to celebrate diversity instead of enforce conformity. Especially when it comes to communicating and language.
I don’t see where I said I would like to enforce anything, please point out exactly what you’re referring to. [1]
Yeah, that’s what I said too, when I was explaining in a very clear and solutions focused way to someone else the ways they can, you know, actually do that by respecting folks who may feel left out when it’s so common to assume everyone is a man behind a computer, which is the opposite of “celebrating diversity”.
This feels intentionally (and unnecessarily) disrespectful after I just made it clear I do not think that type of language is inclusive to everyone.
Please don’t talk to me that way. I’m very happy with my life and don’t need to be told what to do or enjoy.
Nothing wrong with flair.
Yeah that’s the problem. Not every reader will immediately understand that context, and if they don’t, in this example specifically just for a hypothetical, say because they’re gen-z (too young to get the ref) or autistic (more direct communication is better understood) or something, they may think this is just some place where everyone assumes everyone else is a man or a dude, like reddit.

ETA: Footnotes since y’all are so intent on misunderstanding:
With the rise of authoritarianism, I feel like this is the exact kind of behavior that pushed enough people to the far right to get trump elected.
Did you ever stop and wonder if you put these tireless crusades down perhaps we wouldn’t all be threatened by our own government right now?
Don’t worry about me friend, I’m looking after my community and my loved ones and myself, but you are right that authoritarianism is the real threat, and the best way to counter that is community organizing, which is what I spend my time doing. Not saying that because I feel the need to tout my accomplishments, I feel I have a very healthy self image. But you do seem confused about where to direct your efforts so just so you know, that’s what I recommend.
