Interesting. You haven’t read “more” in the singular with that meaning (definitely not in formal language, if you did see it it would be because of someone trying to be fancy but making a mistake). “Mores” is from Latin, the singular is “mos” which isn’t used in English. “Mores” is a very very unusual word for a non native speaker to use, that’s just what made me curious.
For future reference I don’t think I would describe almost any common person in America as “centre-right” politically right now. Almost everyone is either MAGA, or at-least-center-left (on the American version of the spectrum at least), or apolitical-or-pretending-to-be. And almost no one anywhere on the right knows what the gilded age was. IDK, maybe it’s an issue of translating their politics into your terminology and then back into English.
Also it was a little bit strange that you seemed to almost totally ignore my “my country is dying I hate this” comment and somehow take the opposite meaning from it. Your reply was kind of boilerplate, just something you could say to any American who made a reply to your comment, with a few fitting quotes from my message taken out of context up at the top. Then there are sort of weirdly formal structures to it (the bulleted list breaking down components of your argument like an essay, and “consider novel approaches” and “cultural mores” and things like that). I would say it sounds like LLM text, except that there are also in it minor grammar mistakes (which is fine honestly, I’m a native speaker and I make plenty of those.)
I was just curious, just prodding a little bit, that is all, hope you do not take offense. Maybe you did some academic work in English, and so that’s just become the way you write when you’re writing English and so it’s unlike a lot of Lemmy comments as a result.
