I am normally pretty pessimistic, but can’t imagine this either, like someone would say “did you hear about that new cat they found?” not “hey, did you hear about that new cat some white, straight, Christian guy found?”
Well, the aristocracy didn’t just learn English overnight. The transition of official use over about 200 years shows them becoming more and more accepting and comfortable with it.
Yes, and because of that there was a lot of interaction and blending, right up to the point where trials were required to be performed in English in the mid-14th century, then in the 15th everything was switched to English. The Peterborough Chronicle perfectly demonstrates the transition from Old English to Middle. It was written over about a hundred years (11th to 12th Century) and gradually starts incorporating French vocabulary and dropping old Germanic grammar.
There were a lot of native French speakers in England at that time, so a bunch of normalizing like what happened a couple hundred years earlier with the Norse meeting Anglo-Saxons

Someone needs to start an open letter. Title it something like “what good is an arts center no one will perform at?” Say the undersigned will not perform at a facility, property, or building with Trump’s name on it. Get thousands–everyone–every artist imaginable to sign it
