I look down on anybody who can't speak clear and concise (assuming English is your 1st language of course, I am way more lenient on people who have thick foreign accents). Doesn't matter what color you are, you should at least sound like someone who people want to listen to.

You're speaking from a place of privilege when you say this. People speak as they are raised and educated to speak. Some choose to speak that way even after education as a cultural matter. I don't entirely understand it, but I also am privileged to have been taught the language as I was.

I do admit to looking down on anyone who says stuff like "aks you a question" or "cup of expresso" or other stuff. But that's common among people of any race.
