No, “in mass” means you’re physically located in Massachusetts. “En masse” means massive quantity, that’s the point of their post, that’s the expression, its loaner words from French; you’ve never heard anyone say “in mass” in this context in your life, you have been hearing “en masse” incorrectly because your education system failed you.
Goodness, a person makes one error and now the entire education system is in shambles.
these are fucking hilarious, im hoping everyone Is being tongue in cheek.
I think you mean “tung en cheeke”
Don’t let them convince you it’s an error, language is descriptive and “mass” to describe a group of people is a common English definition. They are just being pedants.
I agree, I’m kinda used to it now. People on Lemmy can be very delicate and beautiful flowers. Literally the smallest disturbance from their desire and they can go on a cursing tirade. If one didn’t know any better one might think the sky was falling. You should see some of the comment chains I’ve been through in my short time here. Although two of those people seemed truly disturbed.
