Are there people in Japan who consciously refuse to use honorifics (e.g. -kun, -san)?I'm thinking of people like anarchists who reject hierarchical social structures, but maybe there are others? Would this still be seen as insulting, even if you're very polite in every other way?Any Japanese people here who can shed light on this?
>>83101384German has a similar built in linguistic tool for expressing your social status in relation to the person you're addressing. Refusal to engage with that is definitively seen as impolite, but it's mostly older folk who'd take issue with it
