We are so used to our "inner dialog voice" that we literally can't stop talking to ourselves in our heads.
But, what about deaf people or people who simply have never learned any languages.
How do they "think"?
Also, how do blind people know that they have finished wiping?
I have the same question but it regards animals. What "language" are they thinking in?
people who simply have never learned any languages
I wouldn't call some kind of feral man even human. A dumb ape wouldn't fall into that category for consideration.

it is not sound-based.

why does my inner voice sound like batman, but not my real voice?

Some people don't use their inner voice much. Do you have an inner dialogue telling you how to tie your shoelaces? I have a monologue when planning what to say or write. I can't even imagine it being useful for more than that. Ok, maybe I can, but it's a stretch.
Inner dialogue is just a way of interpretting how we think. I can think in words, but not all of the time. Day dreaming, imagining the taste of a lemon, its all our imagination. I can even change my inner voice to whatever i like and sometimes i cant control it at all and can think speak over my inner dialogue.
So what, like i said, its all apart of our imagination.

they wash their ass with water like any civilized person.

Wait do you, instead of wiping, wash your ass with water?
I've never had an internal voice or anything like it. I imagine people who would have an internal monologue but have never heard anything have an inner voice consisting of words in the same way you do. Does it help people with remembering things or something?

Internal monologue probably helps with reading, since visual memory dissipates after a fraction of a second and auditory memory lasts on the order of 20 seconds; long enough for you to get to the end of a sentence in most cases.
