Was just pondering the thought but could it not be said that jargon and subcultural languages such as teenspeak and netspeak discriminate by excluding others and separating groups?

Is that a form of discrimination though that examiners will agree with?

yeah thats to do with creating group solidarity and constructing power structures – who belongs to our mob and who doesn’t – in a process of inclusion and exclusion. Outsiders will sometimes be put off by the lexicon of a jargon that is not readily comprehensible to a novice
