Why the three question marks? Is this another case of not practising what you preach?

Blame our education system. It does not teach much of anything to our kids. Blame parents and care givers, who are not present in the home, who must work, and when they are home, do not teach. Blame our kids, who do not see the importance of learning. Blame our love of text messaging, we abreviate and encode everything. No one knows how to write a full sentence. Blame our society, that values adding new definitions and meanings to common words. We do not know what the words mean anymore. Your choice of the word "unfashionable" is a good one. It is fashionable to invent a new language, and change it's words and meanings frequently, so that only the members of your group understand them. The language of the streets is in fashion.

Many of the people on here, mostly children and teens it seems, have problems with basic spelling and grammar. Maybe it is a reflection on the state of the education system in our country.
Some of the people on here are just using geeky little netspeak though, like one of the earlier respondents did.

I have often wondered the exact same thing. I guess people are just too lazy or in too much of a hurry to remember proper (and very BASIC) rules of grammar and spelling! I see WAY too much incorrect usage of the word 'to/too/two,' 'they're/their/there,' etc.! People don't seem to know nowadays when to use proper punctuation, especially. It's a bit annoying, and it actually makes me worry a fair amount... But ah well. That's America for you, isn't it?

Because the jew controlled media is trying to eliminate the white race, views and traditions. So everything that is a fad or fashionable is coming from a world that is trying to make a White genocide movement.

I'm not sure. These annoying little quirks are starting up everywhere. It drives me nuts that people say "Me and Sally" instead of "Sally and I" and "If he would've done it" instead of "If he had done it." Arg.
