just want to plus one the above post
i am no stranger to affectations in speech so you do you when it comes to how you want to express yourself
the cultural and linguistic baggage that comes with real life pidgins and creoles is enormous
and people who identify with those struggles despite not having experienced it themselves - i would venture a guess that you have your own struggles and are reinterpreting them through a different lens - this is by definition distancing and we need to be aware of the way that can diminish others very real lived experience
a lesson i learned is that there is no exchange rate for suffering and it is best to not assume you know someone else's pain no matter how similar it may seem - but if you do, it should be with those people who share that pain rather than what we imagine it is
