Good Little Maoists

James, there's a lot of positive to be taken from your article. I, for one, have been forced to expand my use of the language ~ looking up YOUR words to find out what you're saying.

I don't know if language is like water ~ always seeking the lowest common denominator ~ or if it's "a Front" to imply a Social Standing . . . or even (perhaps, just maybe) some kind of kinship or Brotherhood among ALL the poor and downtrodden who (by the use of "G") demonstrate they are "equal" to one another ~ or DESIRE to be recognized as "equal" to one another. Perhaps I have some kind of latent desire in that direction, because I often have to refer to the online Urban Dictionary just to figure out what some people are saying to me. Ghetto Dialect ("G") is just like reading you: I have to "learn" it: research the language.
