To be precise, it's not English as a language that I hate, but English as a form of power.

@hongminhee i think you make some great points about how power structures impact all of this (and online i recognize i am privileged to be an english speaker, with all the access that entails).

access is important but not at the expense of clarity. it's not about grammar—the gulf between cultures can be so hard to bridge. i don't trust an (implicitly biased, probably american) llm to foster understanding. isn't that reinforcing cultural hegemony and upholding the same power structures?
