    Compare this question although the answers are brief; "I be" can be the subjunctive per this question. – Stuart F Oct 31 '22 at 10:11

    I think this is a tendency in social media language rather than voluntary omissions of standard English, or a particular tense. This tendency is present and growing. Maybe worth investigating? Voted to reopen. This is a pertinent question. – fev Nov 03 '22 at 11:18
