All languages always, have evolved at rapid rates, as long as they’re used. If you went back in time to, say, the 1600s, you would sound stupid. If someone from the 1600s went back to the 1200s, he would sound stupid. If you went back to the 1200s, nobody would understand you.
This is not a new thing, it is how our languages work.

Online, there probably isn’t much to be done to change someone’s mind.
When in person, if he is still an asshole, treat him like the asshole that he is.
Not gonna lie fam, I was looking for a way to link the source post, that was less creatively dead than “Source post: √link”. But I think what I said is a hella good point in a post with enough upvotes, that I was going back to it via “Top of last week”, because it is that highly upvoted.

I fucking hate these shitheads, I was arguing with one earlier and no matter how many facts I gave him with proper sources he just refused to actually show any kind of respect
