I’ve heard it explained that “hey” used to be more of an urgent way to get someone’s attention, rather than a casual “hello” like it is now, so it sounded rude to some older folks.

And I pointed out why they said that, because they are philistines that don’t want language to change, but they have no problem using it when it benefits them. Like Shakespeare terminology, abbreviations like lol and lmfao, and emojis.
Your take was wrong and now you’re insulting people who have pointed this out.
That’s childish lmfao.
Part of another point is, there isn’t any proper English, so how could they be trying to force them to use it instead of slang when there’s never been “proper” English. Because where’s the line? Shakespeare? lol? Emojis! Acsii?
You understand that “philistines” is a reference to Palestinians, right?
You could do with a bit more education in my opinion.
My take is wrong, why, because you say so? I’m done going round and round with a millennial. Take care.
I didn’t say so, I explained my reasoning. Your reasoning was it makes you sound like a fifth grader. Nothing wrong with that if the communication gets across right.
You’ve since insulted me instead of responding with a coherent rebuttal. And why have you never responded to what proper English is?
