noble pursuit. fear there is but legit. fear of *snapback* that was seen, in comparison, when irl and chronically online people meet, like when people who tend to keep to themselves and their, to excuse my poor wording, *circlejerk*; vs people who try to keep up with theirs attempt to (nobly) teach and *preach *to "normies", rather to let them be informed(?) - "left cant meme". it means, while just and equal society is goal, it cant be done on sake of "losing silent majority" - see how *old gay*, hate *new gay*(*) and others_ "living in their own reality"...
/ what i want to say is, merit and (forced?) equality is difference. mean and average are not same things, so if i read about classicism and racism/decolonialism/gender article... who wins by this?(/*) because ESG and DEI, if not implemented as true change, but only rag to paster up the dirty mess behind, while same money flow and support the same-old exploitation, unchanged, - then isnt it better to have old, visible hate and disident, that to have pondering to(-say) "moloch", to "hr staff" instead, who ... no. i got it from wrong end. what i meant to say is,
// how can we be sure that all people will be supported by this framework, than only few who decide where (direction) the company/wiki/org/ngo... has to go? this is not attack but about values. this is not about AW but speaking broadly. do we have to fight about who-when supports "the system/machine", - do we have to actively participate so we will never rest, so that morality wars wouldve never have no chance to corrupt us, others, org... by given power? fighting ourselves inside, or system, both, or let things fall because there is no goal that to be self-right?
--- how it relates: then we need to name them best way possible, but not to pretend or delete history!

The problem is that the 'defining' features of these subcultures are often themselves stereotypes. For example, associating 'Chav' with specific shopping habbits ("cheap tracksuits") or 'Choni' (Spain's equivalent of chav) with a lack of formal education isn't just describing; it's reinforcing existing class-based prejudices about intelligence or consumerism. These associations inherently reflect socioeconomic status and the stigmatization of the working class. For example, in the 'Choni' page, which I created, even when describing the subculture's slang in a "neutral" tone, the focus on misspellings and perceived 'improper' language reinforces classist stereotypes about education and linguistic ability.
