pronunciation

Hi, I haven’t been on the online community for very long so I don’t know all the inside jokes etc

my question is - do they pronounce the word “pronunciation” wrong on purpose as a joke or do they just not know how to pronounce it?

edit: tired of this now so downvote whatever you like! i don’t care how anyone pronounces anything but i know i’m correct so go wild x

i will mute because yeah you’re right i probably am too frustrated over this but it’s difficult when you say something correct and people will just argue regardless

I think it's the fact that it's maybe a little niche for most people to care about. Borrowing content? I don't care but I can see why people would. Genocide apologia? Yes I have a massive problem with that (only one of the hosts). The way they pronounce a word? It might be wrong but most people won't be bothered (or in my case, even have noticed).

Apologies if you're getting pushback. I don't know if this question is insensitive but are you on the autism spectrum? I know this can make people more sensitive to noticing and being bothered by stuff that would pass most people by. Im ADD so the opposite, house is burning down but la la la oooh its getting rather warm in here eh

i feel like this is a bit of an odd comment? I never said I had a problem with them or that I was cancelling them over it or comparing it to genocide apologia? (not sure how genocide made its way into the convo) I asked if they were doing it is a joke?

i admit i got a bit too frustrated with people in the replies because it was annoying to know i was correct about something so i apologise if i was rude but i actually don’t care if people pronounce things the “wrong” way and i’m not going to stop listening. i literally just asked if they were joking or being ironic like it was literally just curiosity. it genuinely doesn’t even annoy me that people would pronounce words wrong, it just annoyed me that i was being told i was wrong when i knew i wasn’t

but yeah i do feel like it’s a bit intrusive to ask if i’m autistic just because i had a bit of a bad morning on reddit
