That is some umbongotime level stuff, unless you're just kidding. Is there some difference between this and the bigot-y stuff that b3ta users usually get riled up about that I'm not seeing?
I don't mean to start an argument, but that kind of sentiment usually isn't accepted here from what I can tell.

This was a light-hearted comment on irritating vernacular. I really can't see the comparison. Mind I am very tired.

If you call someone an idiot because of the dialect they speak or the accent they have, that is a pretty canonical example of bigotry. Saying he's stupid because of his views or something else is generally a defensible thing to do, but making derogatory statement because of an accent like saying "I would not trust the opinion of a stupid Jew" or "what a gay idiot", which people generally don't like here.
Surely there are people who use b3ta and who speak like this guy.
I don't know how calling someone an idiot is lighthearted anyway...
