A total of zero people are confused when someone says “supposably” instead of “supposedly.” All you think about is how you or someone else you know was corrected and made fun for speaking “wrong.”
Also, “correcting” peoples pronunciations has a deep-rooted history in oppressing minority groups, e.g. “ask” vs. “axe.” You’d know this if you weren’t full of so much hate and ignorance.
You’re not an English teacher, right? You’re not speaking to your kids, right? You’re just having regular conversations with people, right? If you want to beat rules into people who don’t speak like you do, you might actually be full of hate and ignorance and you’re probably racist, that is 100% correct.
I don’t think so. As a non native English speaker, I am happy when people help me to improve my English. So I totally would do the same for other people, I don’t think that makes me a racist but rather someone that cares about language as it allows me to better understand intention, such as racist ones.
It’s about context, my guy. As a non-native speaker, you’re probably not making the same English speaking “mistakes” as natives. If you’re correcting native speakers about English as a non-native, you’re probably going to be more often wrong than right, and since you don’t know societal context, that’s really bad too. You people have to stop dumbing shit down and ignoring all the context with everything.

Them- “btw, you’ve pronounced that word incorrectly.”
You- “THAT’S RACIST. You are full of hate and ignorance!”
