I am tired of dipshit neoliberal drones who don't speak my language making statements about my language. Whatever basic ass mutilated cantonese you learned does not give you any right to make any statements aboht our language. Your friend is obviously some illiterate gusano raised in America otherwise they would've just written a note to the Mandarin speaker. I have both Cantonese and Mandarin speaking relatives, I'm tired of dipshits like you who can't even grasp the basics of Chinese declaring that because your illiterate linguistically stunted ass can't figure out what someone is saying then nobody can. Honestly the situation described is so stupid I imagine your entire circle of friends consists of the type of insufferable neoliberals who have the shallowist grasp of any non-english language.

And you still haven't addressed the fact that you're such a dumbass that you thought "simplified chinese" was a dialect.
