That’s it. I have heard it all!
As a southern person, I say the word “y’all” all the time. It is a conjunction of the words “you” and “all”. I use it for everyone. It doesn’t matter if you’re male, female, old, young, white, black….In no way, shape, or form is the word racist. That is, unless you’re a liberal I guess.
I came across an article calling for the word “y’all” to be banned because thy fee the word is racist.
NPC Daily writer Neville Croft wrote, “[A] new hate word is increasingly being used by the alt-right. The word ‘y’all’ is the most recent addition to their ammunition of hate and has already sent many unsuspecting persyns of unidentified gender identities into horrific seizures and panic attacks.”
The snowflake continued, “‘Y’all’ is a southern hate word that evokes all sorts of gruelling, racist connotations. Just thinking about it makes me feel nauseous.Journalists in particular have faced an onslaught of harassment by bigots using this word..."

If you go to the source, “NPC Daily” (npcdaily.com), it’s pretty apparent it’s a satire site. Among today’s headlines -
“Elizabeth Warren criticizes Coronavirus Taskforce for lack of inclusivity, Demands Trans Kids” and “Catholic Church Secretly Planning to Build Mecha Pope, ANonymous Source Reveals.”
Now that I’ve actually clicked through and read the source, Keely has been had. NPC was a satirical slam on Leftists from a couple years ago. Note that the supposed journalist’s name is Neville Percival Croft, NPC. NPC is also a standard acronym for Non-Player Character, a programmatic character in MMORPGs, massive multiplayer online role playing games. The idea is that Leftists might as well be bots, NPC, because of the way they respond to many interactions with thinking humans, in a non-thinking, programmatic way.
Twitter et al exercised a huge suppression operation at the many satirical NPC accounts that were quickly created.
Here’s more on the idea.

The whole thing was hilarious.
Axe me no questions and i’ll tell you know lies.
Hillary said it. LOCK HER UP!
You are correct, and see my previous. The link is worth reading.
“ Bless their little hearts”
EXACTLY!
“Oh for crying out loud.”
They’ll ban that phrase, too. Just wait.
We used to have a plural form for the second person in English, but now it’s gone. Y’all is all we have left, unless we go back to “thou” and “ye”. Let’s do that.
“‘Y’all’ is a southern hate word..”
I grew up and live in Oklahoma city. I use the term y’all all day long. It’s nothing but a reference to whatever group of folks I’m talking about. When I lived in California a couple of years as a teenager they homed in on it quickly as something to ridicule. I kind of hated that.
Michelle Obama on white flight: ‘Y’all were running from us’
“Clearly this is satire. “
Its just really hard to tell the difference anymore.
Many real news stories would seem to have to be satire.
According to an article I read in the Southern Partisan magazine several years ago, “You all” is always second person plural, although in Texas I have been addressed as “you all” even though I was by myself with no companions.
Bless their hearts.
In the first place, yall is not hyphenated, in the second, they can kiss my ass.
I better start using it more. I love the South and love Southern accents. Can’t stand Boston and New York accents.
“Y”all can just go F yourselves.” Yes.
Dear Neville Croft, well bless your heart. As tiny, cold, and ignorant as it may be. Signed, The South.
American by birth, Southern by the Grace of God!
i use the word y’all very niggardly.
After 10 years in the Army, with people from all over, my accent flattened out and I began to use "Yinz" and "Y'all" interchangeably. Having lived in the deep south for the last 20 years, I lean toward, "Y'all," but when I get back to PA, I find myself subconsciously slipping back to "Yinz."
Seriously though, where does it stop? In the limit, it will be considered racist if you make someone tell you you're racist.
In other words, you should just assume everything you do, say, or think is somehow racist. If I have to point out something you're doing/saying/thinking is racist, then your forcing me to do that is itself racist.
There, does that about cover it libtards? Can we just assume that like background radiation in the universe, there is a background level of racism that permeates everything around us?
"Racism!" or "Racist!" has been hurled around so much, and so blatantly inappropriately that it now has lost all meaning as anything actually negative. It is now merely a source of amusement and entertainment to hear the breathless virtue-signalling snowflakes apply it to ever more ridiculous situations. Good job there libtards, you've taken a serious issue and reduced it to 2nd tier stand up comedy level stuff.
