I did not know that.
no – period
One exception, the argument is about spelling or grammar then it’s kinda invited mockery. Aside from that you’re just dealing with an ableist, dyslexia is the most common learning disability
Dyslexia is common, but people for whom english is not their first language, whose learning is still in progress. Those are even more common on the internet.

FYI both are valid definitions - if someone just says racism and seems to mean systemic racism, then they’re not wrong.

I don’t really understand your point. Portmanteaus and coining new words are useful in conveying complex concepts, though. If you wanted to have a conversation about parentification would you rather have one word to encompass that or have to say “the effect of having to be a care giver to your caregivers during your formative years” every time you need to reference that concept in the discussion.
What makes that a mutilation instead of more efficient?
The racism thing is confusing because racism encompasses both forms but there are specific descriptors for unique expressions of the same thing. Just like a square is a rectangle but a rectangle isn’t necessarily a square. That’s not really redefining, systemic racism has been racism the whole time, too. We’re just aware enough to have discussions about the specific ways it effects society today.
Edit: redefining “literally” to accommodate people using incorrectly on the other hand was a misstep for the English language, though. So I don’t necessarily disagree, I just think you picked bad examples.

“-ification” is a suffix about transformation and becoming so the word works fine. Your argument it is just anti-intellectualist opinion. So who cares?
I wouldn’t say I’m an intellectualist, but I am an anti-anti-intellectualist. Doesn’t it makes me sound so smart? Your analogy isn’t one and your points make no sense. You’re shoe horning a white plight angle into this convo for no reason. You’re downvoting me for challenging you to better represent your point of view.
So, good faith’s dried up, get bent asshole.

The fact that you’re bringing it up at all indicates that you haven’t been paying enough attention to the problems and conversations about racism.
Even your language “not the biggest problem” does not mean “not a problem” it literally means second place or lower. Which is a lot of wiggle room for validating white rights ideologues.
Uhmmmm Akšually!! 🤓🤓 its spelled Hepi valentajns dej 🤓🤓🤓

I was on the web page for Pokémon Go today and there’s some valentines event that they called “Palentine’s day” and I read through it twice before I realized it didn’t say Palestine every time. I feel like they probably had to turn autocorrect off for that one.
Why are we setting berd on fire now?
there was a landmine around the corner. had to be done.
It’s just…so very racist. 1950’s Kentucky racist.
Let’s be fair, your argument was already an inferno.
Argumentum ad populum. Just because my arguments aren’t popular, doesn’t mean they’re not logically true.
It gets funnier when you realize Berd made a video about exactly how the Internet responds to typos in arguments:
