Ok buddy go write your magnum opus in Ebonics then.

Even Mozart followed rules of music theory; he just knew the appropriate times to break these rules. It's the same with writing - the rules are important to follow, but you need to know the appropriate times at which they can be broken.

If the machine does not bend to my will, it should be allowed to lay silent only by some token of grace, for I have and will not longer suffer the rational enclosure of which you and those tabernacle menaces and royal dreammongers would have of me, that being none and by myself even none, none of even potential identity, nor none not even to earn capital to become but a part, no but simply to do and do only by rote command on the pain of suffering an instance of reckless enthusiasms such that I bare here for you, a cascade of indifference and solicitude announced beyond your mere McCarthism you festering mules.

It's a question of stylistic quality more than merely one of correction

You can break rules all you like, you'll just come across as a mouthbreathing prole unless you actually know what you're doing (you don't)

The rules of grammar exist so others can understand you. Let's say you really are the smartest person in the universe. Do you want other people to recognize that fact by following the rules, or do you just want to be seen as a gibbering drunk fucktard?

But grammar as a subset of language, is communicative by nature, Anon. If your subject finds it hard to understand your Ebonics, then your writing loses all it's value.
The most groundbreaking thinkers in any field don't outright reject proper form, they evaluate it and adhere to it til they gain the clout to influence convention according to their will.

Language is "merely" a social construct. That doesn't mean it's "made up". Following the rules will help you be understood.

I know what-that you don't, on grammar and it's rules. It's a game, a playset, a place for my tile of words to be layed down and fit snuggly in the pass of lucidity, liqued virtue lined by the silver graces of rules but with a punk attitude, fuck the system bend the fools twist their thoughts, wrap it around and back again, you need a system that loops one two two one two then play with the pattern, one two one two one one two show them something new, three.
