which part don’t you understand? maybe I can explain
I didn’t say they did. Spanish versions from Latin America are still marginalized though because the indigenous peoples heavily influenced the language and the vocabulary, etc. that’s why Spaniards get judgemental when they “correct” Latine people because they view their language as inferior and grammatically incorrect
the short answer is colonization. the US school system admires the Castilian language more because they have a shared history with the Spanish empire of using European languages to commit cultural genocide against the indigenous peoples of America
because it’s not a discord alternative
this lead me to discover that there’s a Reddit-like client for Bluesky. That’s genuinely a great feature that they are open enough for that
