I am using English more fully than you. If I write in the English of an educated man, where's the harm in you reading educated English, hm? I don't imagine there's a downside.

French is only one of my languages. I was sufficiently educated to have some.

In the future, never ask me if I'll let you be a stupe, okay? I always answer "Don't you fucking dare." I don't allow stupid, and I disparage those that do.

Actually, you write the English of a pretentious twat. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but if we're calling a spade a spade....

Fight The Power

1989 the number another summer (get down)
Sound of the funky drummer
Music hittin' your heart cause I know you got sould
(Brothers and sisters, hey)
Listen if you're missin' y'all
Swingin' while I'm singin'
Givin' whatcha gettin'
Knowin' what I know
While the Black bands sweatin'
And the rhythm rhymes rollin'
Got to give us what we want
Gotta give us what we need
Our freedom of speech is freedom or death
We got to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power

Chorus

As the rhythm designed to bounce
What counts is that the rhymes
Designed to fill your mind
Now that you've realized the prides arrived
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
It's a start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothin's strange
People, people we are the same
No we're not the same
Cause we don't know the game
What we need is awareness, we can't get careless
You say what is this?
My beloved lets get down to business
Mental self defensive fitness
(Yo) bum rush the show
You gotta go for what you know
Make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say...
Fight the Power

Chorus

Elvis was a hero to most
But he never meant shit to me you see
Straight up racist that sucker was
Simple and plain
Mother fuck him and John Wayne
Cause I'm Black and I'm proud
I'm ready and hyped plus I'm amped
Most of my heroes don't appear on no stamps
Sample a look back you look and find
Nothing but rednecks for 400 years if you check
Don't worry be happy
Was a number one jam
Damn if I say it you can slap me right here
(Get it) lets get this party started right
Right on, c'mon
What we got to say
Power to the people no delay
To make everybody see
In order to fight the powers that be

(Fight the Power)

Using English more fully has very little to do with actual communication. So what. As for harm, the harm is to the success of the communication. Talk or write all you want, if you're unable to get your ideas across and to understand the ideas of those talking and writing to you, your communication has been harmed. That is the downside.

As for your permission for another person's thoughts and actions and behaviors, when you say shit like "I won't allow it", you just crack me up. The complete ridiculousness of such hubris makes most of the rest of what you say equally unbelievable.
