Will you use gamer words whilst gaming? 🤔 you promise you will swear!
Language of the Gods, even
To me they're all a bunch of bundles sticks
You could have made a load of comparisons to 1984 and Newspeak.
SWEARTOME!
I've made this point several times over the years: Yes, wokespeak is a marker of class and an ideological shibboleth. People who know the lingo can instantly recognise their fellow travelers after a couple of words/sentences are spoken, and they can also instantly weed out the nonbelievers and smelly proles from their lack of wokewaffling, in much the same way an Aristocrat might have noticed your poor french or lack of ballroom dancing skill.
It is ironic though that a movement purportedly for the underprivileged has developed a jargon to exclude those stinky have-nothings.
It makes sense why they claim that people use dog whistles when they essentially do the same thing.
you think the people who have time to make fake english words to describe how special they are and "champion the working class", are really working class? these are the children of rich twats who are a least upper middle class ridding there parent wealth and need a hobby
Agreed.
Isn't it funny, though, that the very people who talk a big game about inclusion use every method known to man to divide people?
By skin-color (down to the hue), country of origin, sexuality, sex, health, language, flags, appearance, political allegiance, diet, religion ... I probably forgot some.
The base characteristics of an actual racist.
@@addex1236 Elitists with a guilty conscience. Soothing themselves with the smell of their own farts. They deserve every bit of mockery they get.
“Sexual preference means sexuality is a choice” I understand why leftists would think preference = choice when they constantly try to force people to change their preferences to suit them
It’s an ephemeral truth. My body, my choice... I was made this way... I can be whatever I want... I was born in the wrong body.
All are leftist claims in the last 50 years. They cannot all be correct. They seem to be interchangeable at their convenience 💡
It's only a not a choice insofar that it doesn't cause you to discriminate against a trans person. It used to be accepted as a valid defense for gay people to explain why they weren't straight, while homophobic people would say, no it is a choice, you choose to be gay and your choice is evil. Now that same homophobic rationale is turned around on both gay and straight people when their orientation causes them to not have sex with a trans person who's biology doesn't align with their "preference" despite them identifying as what you're attracted to. Your choice is still evil, it's just evil for a different reason.
Also, it *is* a choice.
Gay men/lesbian women have been known to have led a "normal" life outwardly: married with children. A often necessary ruse.
Prisons may result in homosexual relations, as well.
Both, admittedly, not examples of free choice; but choice nonetheless.
We all can also choose to abstain and many religious orders demand their members do.
And then there's those who are somewhat ambivalent, yet choose to only pick partners of one sex.
What's always been hilarious to me, is that by making such a big deal about choice vs "born that way", leftists are accidentally admitting that they think there's something wrong with being gay. Because if there was nothing wrong with it, it wouldn't matter whether you choose to be that way or if it's just your inherent nature. Nobody ever argues that they like chocolate ice cream because their taste buds were just naturally oriented that way, because it doesn't matter, nobody cares what kind of ice cream you like.
@@nobody2021 the biblical facts were that homosexual inclination and attraction was not the issue. It was specifically the act. Temptation sits with many different people in different ways.
But honestly, the people who get really wound up about such things are not really religious people, are they? Just closet authoritarians who need a cover for their dirty little secret - they love to hate and control people. 💡

I'm a specialist in my field. Reading academic papers, you really start to appreciate the intentionally obtuse language that they use (and not in a good way). There have been way too many times that I'm 75% through a paper before I realized that they're talking about some basic tool of the trade, and they've been describing it in ways that seem to only be intended to obfuscate.
I guess you kind of have to, because if they just straight up said what they were talking about, there's no way you could make it into an academic journal because it's just using standard tools in standard ways on slightly different equipment.
Well this is part of the trick. A layman SHOULD be able to read a paper and make sense of it. Everything is referenced. Unfortunately academia doesn’t realise they disappeared into their navel when they started to serve themselves rather than the public. They aren’t forced into public to justify their work and it shows. I have been reading a lot of bodybuilding science extracts from Brad Shoenfeld lately. It’s almost all meta analysis and it’s bullshit work but SOMEONE has to actually put references next to decades of bro wisdom... and it’s all simply communicated because there is no point putting lipstick on the pig 💡
That reminds me of reading a Friedrich Nietzsche book. He loves to write in unnecessarily complicated and flowery prose. He also quotes people in their original language without translating anything and it drives me up the wall.
@@G-Mastah-Fash Part of the problem might be that German is a much more wordy language than English.
Partially, this may be because German tends to be very precise, while English can be more open to interpretation.
Add to that a marked preference for enormous verbosity at the time.
French and Latin would have been assumed as given; his readers at the time wouldn't have needed a translation.
Never read the man's work (except excerpts), so all of the above is generalized guesswork.
@@p.s.shnabel3409 You're pretty on point with your guesses.
But there is also Nietzsche's own preference cor bombastic.
I have no other word to describe his style of writing.

All of this language basically boils down to narcissism incarnate through words. They think they are so important that they need this language to describe how unique and special they are. Seems like a deep rooted insecurity that has festered into a culture that attacks anyone who doesn’t see things their way and view them as special
language has always been a tool that has been shaped by humans, but has itself shaped society.
Irrational rationalizations
Yep. These leftoids are extremely fragile, deeply troubled and suffer crippling mental illness. We need to start calling them out on their failing mental health because it informs everything they say and do.
look at how far they've gone with pronouns. There seems to be a different pronoun for each individual because they all need these long-winded, self-important titles that are akin to the titles of nobility from old times (thorin, son of threng, son of thrand, son of borimir and so on). Each new pronoun is an opportunity to regurgitate all that nonsensical psychobabble to "educate" the poor soul on the receiving end.
All modern leftism is an exercise in massive, ego driven, elitism.
A lot of this overly verbose language is just to give more "legitimacy" to their stuff. Y'know, like all those pretentious words used mostly by leftists to describe concepts in video games like "Ludo narrative dissonance", "Objective isomorphism" or "Verbs". Most of these are just simple concepts that most gamers are already aware of, but they are used cus these people are really insecure and want desperately for video games to be accepted as high art.
I remember watching this absolutely insane review of quake, where he describes a boomer shooter as a "mood piece" and how quake is like an edgy teenager. Like, what are you even trying to accomplish with this nonsense?
"Jargon" is the word you're looking for, Dev.
Jargon of Jakarta
@@TheGreenKnight500 Bjir
Rhetoric, always more rhetoric.
And the jargonites that peddle it
Agreed.
In their defense, humans tend to do that.
For example, I'm a metal head. If I talk about "a panda" there's a good chance I'm referring to someone who is into black metal.
And so on.
To me, the problem arises when the new jargon tries to supplant existing (and functional) language.
It's one thing to adopt a new term because there's an organic need for it. Our language (and as far as I know all languages; I can't imagine how not to) already contains them: pork, kindergarten, psyche ...
But to stage a hostile take-over of existing words and try and force them into new meaning (while erasing the old)? That's manipulative BS.
It was never about respect, but about power and control

At least latin, french and scientific languages serve an actual purpose.
Speaking as an Englishman, i'm not convinced that French serves an actual purpose.
(i'm joking, of course)
“Don’t you know that having purposeful language and direct meaning is a meta-aggressive act!? Meaningless talkie words is the only acceptable terms in the super finesse tiller super vernacular of common parlance surf spaghetti talk soup!”
also a lot of technical languange is suprisingly understandable, once you see what words its made of
for example:
malware-malicious(bad) software
keyboard-board with keys
driveshaft-shaft that drives you car(moves power from engine to wheels)
That's why I like biology. You have terms such as "hectocotylus" or "aedeagus" which sound fancy but just mean octopus pp and insect pp respectively.
What purpose does a dead language have?

Language is beautiful until it becomes fundamentally divided from reality.
“It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. Of course the great wastage is in the verbs and adjectives, but there are hundreds of nouns that can be got rid of as well. It isn't only the synonyms; there are also the antonyms. After all, what justification is there for a word which is simply the opposite of some other words? A word contains its opposite in itself. Take 'good,' for instance. If you have a word like 'good,' what need is there for a word like 'bad'? 'Ungood' will do just as well--better, because it's an exact opposite, which the other is not. Or again, if you want a stronger version of 'good,' what sense is there in having a whole string of vague useless words like 'excellent' and 'splendid' and all the rest of them? 'Plusgood' covers the meaning, or 'doubleplusgood' if you want something stronger still...In the end the whole notion of goodness and badness will be covered by only six words--in reality, only one word. Don't you see the beauty of that, Winston?”

One of those rare and glorious moments when leftists accidentally admitted they’re full of shit and the stuff they’re saying is made up nonsense.
They just btfo’d their entire cause with that and with “bringing up race when it’s irrelevant.” They MAKE race THE MOST relevant thing about you.

I remember I had a woke friend taunt me because of my simple language. Ironically, he got a C on his essay because his language was too flowery.
TV and movies have led people to believe that the smart people are the ones who speak in the most confusing way possible. In reality, intelligence helps you describe complex ideas in the most clear and concise way. Don't say in ten words what you can say in one.
"Brevity is the soul of wit."
My first thought to your comment: ua-cam.com/video/ZIF_c0e22Bw/v-deo.html
Yes. Excessive verbosity is an indicator of incoherent thinking.
Never use a big word when a diminutive one will do.
Why waste time use lot word when few word do trick?
“Not bothering to learn an ethnic name, always mispronouncing it, calling them something that’s easier to pronounce, making a show of sating it”

Never talk to someone who says "We need to have a conversation".
Someone saying that they want to have a "conversation" is usually a sign that I want to parse as little as I can with them.
It usually is euohemism for them having a monologue and you are expected to just listen and believe. There is no INTERaction.
Or at least, don't take them all that seriously.
Actual Justice Warrior always talks about that: how all they ever say is "we need to start a conversation" but never have said conversation because they don't know what they're even talking about and haven nothing to say haha.
When the All lives matter campaign started, I truly realized just how one-sided the definition fight was. They reserved a right to define "all lives matter" as "I don't care about suffering of black people", and no matter what I said afterwards, they would immediately say: But that is what the "all lives matter" slogan ACTUALLY mean.
The worst part? They spend more time complaining about what they think it means than proving *anyone* actually uses it in that way. I have never seen a single wokester provide an example, ever. Their outrage is based entirely on an uncharitable assumption they made up from thin air.
Meanwhile, BLMers say you need to take their name perfectly literally, even though they ignore black-any black deaths which don't fit the narrative, and sometimes get upset about white people dying (EG a certain incident with a certain young man in Wisconsin).
If All Lives Matter is offensive why ISN'T Black Lives Matter offensive? It's the exact same logic.

Long ago, George Carlin called out the way language changes to be softer or more pretentious through euphemisms. If he was still alive today, he could easily write a whole book on all the new words and phrases the woke crowd has been making up, and maybe more people would point and laugh at how ridiculous this has all become.
I've always wondered whether he would be a "far right extremist" that spoke out against the woke cult, or if he would bend over and take the intersectional kiolbasa like so many other public figures that allegedly stood for free speech have. I've seen people on both sides claim him as their own, and I don't think anyone really knows the answer to that.

Carlin is one of the bodies that woke culture has trampled over to gain relevance. He dismantled the conservative right while they were strong in the 80s, and just like Chapelle got to see the destruction wrought by the people who supported him.
Both are literally useful idiots in the bezmenov paradigm. Thrown away once the revolution had started.
Solopoly means they are cheating on themselves with their other mutiple personalities.

Solopoly is just a sugar-coated term for a selfish piece of shit.

But they end up meeting this nihilist, and one of them asks him what that means, and he says "I don't believe in anything, not even nihilism"

How you manage to learn all this *leftist filth* stuff, divulge it to us in easy-to-understand terms, and not go insane is really amazing. Seriously, you and James Lindsay are really good at this and your works will be referenced in the future when analysing the evils of cultural marxism and it's derivatives like wokeness and progressivism.
I was saying the same thing. I’d lose my f**king mind over all this stupidity haha.
James Lindsay is a demigod for being able to read the neo-Marxist trash from Marcuse, Adorno, and the other Frankfurt School ideologues and translating it into language that the common person understands. My only issue with him is that he still clings to his delusory loyalty to egalitarian-liberal democracy.
I like him and have a lot of respect for Lindsay but man I cannot sit through his videos without getting a migraine. Not because of him but the material is just annoying and repetitive.

Language tends to do two things as you go further down a particular rabbit hole:
1) It becomes more convoluted, in order to distinguish between finer and finer points.
2) Those who become versed in those terms use them to gatekeep "normies" out of their "expert" space.
You see this all across society, in all walks of life where someone seeks to be superior to others:
- Aristocrats will snigger at commoners who don't understand the difference between a soup spoon and a tablespoon, or who can't understand a menu written in French.
- Academics will look down their nose at laypersons who don't understand technical jargon, or who "fail to appreciate" the utility of distinguishing between strict terms (for instance, "Dementia" vs "Senility", or "Infertility" vs "Sterility").
- The culture warriors who use "newspeak" to distinguish between their allies and the "enemies of the revolution". Those who are not politically-correct (i.e. able to keep up with, and support, the ideology) are treated as enemies... or, at best, "proles".
- The nerds who delineate between microscopic points of fact within their autistic areas of interest. They regard those who can't tell ROM from RAM, Vulcans from Romulans, or an Xbox from a Play Station as being "retarded", "fake fans", and such like.
I'm not saying that "Gatekeeping is bad" or that "Strict terms are pointless". Both clearly serve a purpose. It's reassuring to know that doctors can tell the difference between different cancers, and it's also true that some people will pretend to be "fake fans" in order to subvert a franchise or fanbase. Sometimes specialist knowledge serves a legitimate purpose, and learning to tell the difference between special terms is genuinely useful
However, in any community where insider knowledge is positively correlated with privilege, there will always be those who use their knowledge as a stick to beat outsiders with. This is particularly egregious when that group (such as SJWs) expects wider society to cater to them, rather than them keeping to themselves like the aristocrats of old.
The best way to beat them is to refuse to play their game. Tell the toffs that menus in Anglophone countries should bloody well be written in plain English. Tell the academics that hard-working people have better things to do all day than consult JSTOR for the absolute correct definitions. Inform the SJWs that they can stick their pronouns and demi-racial-fluidity where the sun don't shine. Tell the nerds that nobody gives a crap about console generations or TV space aliens.
Don't let people push you around. Tell them to fuck off, and and watch how they turn into a red-faced C-3PO.
Wholeheartedly agreed. Thomas Sowell once said that academia have crowned themselves as sort of a High Priest class.
Well put.
I don't know. I had a discussion with a person the other day who conflated disability with being crippled. Sometimes distinctions matter. The key to language is to nail down what is actually being discussed (which is damn near impossible when the person you're talking to likes to keep the goal posts nice and loose)
@@allantidgwell5624 There's a difference between distinction and pedantry. It is true that being loosy-goosy with definitions is probably about as bad as being overly-picky about word choice in casual conversation.

Finding out Destiny is in an open relationship.

@@markzuckergecko621 Makes sense since most poly relationships are basically male cucks who provide stability and dominant feminists who are not yet ready to settle down but like to keep a provider close to them. When a man wants several women, they often just choose to cheat without the added "poly" manipulation.
Well, he was lmao.
For people that claim to hate hierarchies, they sure love making new convoluted ways to seem "the most woke" thus ranking themselves as superior because of how needlessly complex their labels are.
The need to belong at the top of hierarchy is a natural, deep, and impulsive desire in all humans. No amount of social engineering will ever erase it; it's neurobiologically based and therefore immutable, just like gender, race, and height.

PeterDivine they did the same thing when the coronavirus hit the US and people were calling it the China virus. SJWs lost their sh*t and said that was racist. People then pointed out that the influenza outbreak of 1918 has always been known as the Spanish Flu. So not wanting to be exposed for being hypocrites they took to the internet and got the name changed to "The 1918 Flu".

Fantastic job with that comparison between "lived experience" and anecdotes
The differentation is not coincident. Anecdote is essemtially non-evidence so they have to make the separation to highlight that they do not consider lived experiences the same way. Lived experiences are thus elevated from anecdotes to valid evidence to inform us about reality.

Bruh I'm white, and have hair that goes down to my ass. The amount of people that come up and touch it (some ask politely thankfully) and then go "WoW iT's So SoFt" is insane. If you have nice hair regardless of your race people wanna...touch it idk why they just do lmao.
It only ever happened to me in public school; everyone with interesting hair got that treatment, though, regardless of race. I can imagine it happening in contexts where adults happen to be just as immature, but I've never had it happen or seen it happen since.
Definitely a school-age phenomenon that some people took offense to, which blows my mind. Curiosity leading to hair-touching is far preferable to fear or stigma because of the difference in appearance.
You shouldn't ever touch someone else without permission if you can help it, but that doesn't make hair-touching racist or anything of the sort even in such a case.

Wanting to touch it was a natural result of curiosity, not some sort of power-play. And yeah, I also had really long 'Jesus' hair, so I had mine touched a ton and actually rather appreciated it as a complement.
It kind of happens to all people at an alarmingly high rate but as a black man I can confirm it happened a lot from different girls all throughout school
I remember there was this Leftist in my college class who made me realize that they speak in their own pidgin language. It was technically English but she wasn't even attempting to be comprehensible to a layman. The weird thing about them is, when they change the language, they expect you to automatically know and accept the changes. I'm guessing it's an attempt to gaslight but I hesitate to use that word, because they've changed the meaning of that word to "any attempt to convince me that I was in the wrong."
That, and them being IRL NPCs that can easilly get programming updates. The future is now, and it looks an aweful lot like Stepford.
Honestly, there's a lot of grievances, score settling, and entitlement going on when it comes to this.
BTW, if you want more info on how the elites' "fixes" backfire, I highly recommend Thomas Sowell's Intellectuals and Society.
I knew i was in the right kind place (STEM) when a supervisor told me: "Write simple sentences, like you're writing to toddlers. The jargon makes it hard enough."
You're an intellectual, Otaku. A man of words.
Here's my take: stop using their language and call them what they are - degenerates
This constant hypocritical goalpost moving by progs just so they can be all condescending in why "you're wrong" is hopefully going to bite them because frankly, if I'm going to be wrong no matter what because the "cool kids club" is going to not like me regardless...I'll just bear that cross and be as disrespectful to them as I see fit.
I wish that was true.
As far as I can tell they are zero repercussions for breaching these past offenses.
Look at the people that called for violence during the BLM riots have nothing done to them.
Most recently, look at Joe Biden calling for “funding the police”; Where is the violent BLM/antifa rallies?
That's literally what happened to me... Progs are the pigeons on the chessboard, so I just shit on it first.
While they are bad people, it will take a Stalin to crush their smugness out of them... they will have to be put against the wall either literally or metaphorically to see what they are doing was wrong.
When they have made it so that words can't resolve disputes, force of arms will come to decide them.
I literally got hit with an ad for "polyamory help" right after you used polyamory in your explanation,. Glorious how "they" prove your point in real time
Fuckin same
Jargon and buzzwords will never fly with me.
It's the language of narcissists and broken, miserable people who would rather see everyone else burn in Hell with them than admit that they could ever have been wrong.
People in Africa: We are literally dying from starvation and thirst because we don't have enough supplies to live
People in Syria: Same, our country got blown up
People in Ukraine: We're dealing with a Russian invasion.
'Woke' people on Twitter: Well *I* got misgendered in a bathroom today and someone used a *hateful* word to describe me, my life is *ruined.*
On the topic of redefining racism, Leftists will say "Well all definitions are made up anyway". While this is true, it doesn't mean all definitions are equally valid. The quality of a definition depends on its social utility.
The actual definition of "Racism" is useful in identifying unfair racial double-standards.
Conversely, the "Race = Prejudice + Power" definition of "Racism" is only ever useful in _preserving_ and _obfuscating_ unfair racial double-standards. Because the only time we ever hear it is to deflect whenever ordinary people identify the racial prejudice in leftist race politics.
The fact that language is made up is irrelevant. The point of language is to make things more clear. If a definition can only ever be used to hide the truth and smuggle bullshit, it doesn't belong in the language.
Even if we accept the new definition, the old concept still exists. All they’ve done is watered down the word to be less powerful.
Racism used to mean the idea that a certain race is superior to another.
Now it means a trillion-billion micro-aggressions, plus also the original meaning, but only in certain scenarios. Those trillion-billion definitions, and the stratification of the original definition, only serve to make the word itself less bad.
I would much rather be someone who is called racist for doing anything on the list provided by person in video, than being called racist for thinking one race is superior to another.
But the real point is that all of their justifications are deflections, anyway. The real reason for the obfuscation of language is to use language as a vehicle for narrative, rather than a vehicle for communication.
Wahmen: I'm solo poly
"Woooo! You go gurrrl!"
Man: I'm MGTOW
"REEEEEEEEE!!! MISOGYNIST!!!"
I always preferred the Avene Q take on racism, as we are imperfect, everyone is probably a little racist, but that isnt something to go flagellating ourselves over or lambasting eachother for.
And to deny that is give the impression that you're better than everyone else, that you're above it all.
dude thanks for reminding me of that excellent musical. I'm sure that by today's standards it's seen as problematic, but I sometimes find myself singing "If you were gay" or "everyone's a little bit racist".
So this is just another case of hypocritical double standards
"Rules for thee, but not for me"
"You're the absolute scum of the earth if you do something we find despicable, but when WE do that same despicable thing, it's justified and TOTALLY OK"
premise 1: I am a good person
premise 2: I am racist
conclusion: racism is good
I really think that's the end goal of leftism, because if you really think about it, if everything is racist, and everyone is racist, then is it really bad? I think eventually, if they were to gain control, they would be like oh yea we thought about it and racism is actually pretty cool. Everyone kill everyone. We'll watch.
@@markzuckergecko621 they already say that we need to get over the idea that racism means you're a bad person... When people get sensitive about being called racist and call them out for doing it. The absolutely do use it to attack people, but when people feel attacked they reply that "racism identifies systems of power and privilege, it's not a personal attack." The only reasoned response is to say "fine, racism isn't bad then. You calling me racist isn't bad. What you mean by racism isn't bad. Racism isn't a problem."
@@CoryTheRaven these people are so insane, they think violence is justified to fight perceived racism. When in the mind of a rational person, the entire reason racism is wrong is because it can lead to someone justifying violence. They've just skipped over all that part and gone right to justifying violence. So to them, little nana that's a just old fashioned and stuck in the old ways, that'll make racial slurs and inappropriate comments but really wouldn't hurt a soul and is actually a really sweet person, well she's *worse* than the antifa mouth breathers that are attacking strangers and burning buildings down because of some racism they invented in their head. It's complete insanity.
I believe this was called "the wooden tongue" in my Soviet Union - adjacent neck of the woods back in the day. Make it so that there is no language to criticize the party by severely punishing those who do not adhere to the agreed speaking patterns and terms.
I guess the new way is to straight-up change the definitions in real-time
There is a saying in engineering. "If you can't blind them with brilliance, you bury them in bullshit."
This is why I've been promoting the Go Free method. It's a language + dialectic framework to properly engage in this language-based mind war we're in.
Why bother with their games when you could just knock them the fuck out?
@@MidlifeCrisisJoe I think my solution would be more satisfying. Also I generally like everyone else.
In other words, elitists love to play semantic games with language and then gaslight you when you don't play along.
I’ve long been saying that the Canadian federal government has been more frequently using the word “rule” instead of “law”, because rules apply to the ruled, and laws apply to everyone. They are signalling that they are no longer duly elected representatives that are themselves accountable to the law, but rather our rulers who are above us, and and above the rules.
_'It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. Of course the great wastage is in the verbs and adjectives, but there are hundreds of nouns that can be got rid of as well. It isn't only the synonyms; there are also the antonyms. After all, what justification is there for a word which is simply the opposite of some other word? A word contains its opposite in itself. Take "good", for instance. If you have a word like "good", what need is there for a word like "bad"? "Ungood" will do just as well -- better, because it's an exact opposite, which the other is not. Or again, if you want a stronger version of "good", what sense is there in having a whole string of vague useless words like "excellent" and "splendid" and all the rest of them? "Plusgood" covers the meaning, or "doubleplusgood" if you want something stronger still. Of course we use those forms already. but in the final version of Newspeak there'll be nothing else. In the end the whole notion of goodness and badness will be covered by only six words -- in reality, only one word. Don't you see the beauty of that, Winston? It was B.B.'s idea originally, of course,' he added as an afterthought._
_A sort of vapid eagerness flitted across Winston's face at the mention of Big Brother. Nevertheless Syme immediately detected a certain lack of enthusiasm._
_'You haven't a real appreciation of Newspeak, Winston,' he said almost sadly. 'Even when you write it you're still thinking in Oldspeak. I've read some of those pieces that you write in The Times occasionally. They're good enough, but they're translations. In your heart you'd prefer to stick to Oldspeak, with all its vagueness and its useless shades of meaning. You don't grasp the beauty of the destruction of words. Do you know that Newspeak is the only language in the world whose vocabulary gets smaller every year?'_
_Winston did know that, of course. He smiled, sympathetically he hoped, not trusting himself to speak. Syme bit off another fragment of the dark-coloured bread, chewed it briefly, and went on:_
_'Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed, will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten. Already, in the Eleventh Edition, we're not far from that point. But the process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little smaller. Even now, of course, there's no reason or excuse for committing thoughtcrime. It's merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control. But in the end there won't be any need even for that. The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect. Newspeak is Ingsoc and Ingsoc is Newspeak,' he added with a sort of mystical satisfaction. 'Has it ever occurred to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?'_
Interesting how the "relationship escalator" has "have sex" before even "become a couple".
Identifying as an attack helicopter doesn't even sound like a joke anymore
The difference between satire and something lefticles genuinely believe is usually about 6 months.
i'd be careful identifying as mil tech, you might get sent over to eastern europe as lethal aid.
I keep wondering how long these people will get away with it. At some point everyone has to realize the insanity of it all and stop caving to the social media mob every single time.
"The ministry of fear that won't let you live

I've been saying something similar for a while. Demanding the use of pronouns sounds and feels too much like demanding me address nobles by their full titles.
They don't even bother hiding the fact that they're trying to trap you. They just say outloud that they will trap you.
I mean I get they wanted to add diversity into the drawing there or whatever.. But couldn't they have given her something that at least looks like an actual prosthetic leg instead of the pirate peg leg 🤦🏼♀️
It's one of those ones that runners use where the foot looks like a scoop. The artist is not very good though and can't properly convey that.
Which is why she is also wearing loose pants, a sweater, and a regular attire hijab. She’s about to do a race
"You can't judge the relationship on weather they live together, get married, have kids-"
Yes I can. These people judge you as soon as they look at you, so sauce for the goose once I learn this about them, I'm going to go right on ahead and judge them.
One core lynchpin they always talk about, even in your video is the LGBT "community" not the people who are LGBT, but the group as a singular thing. I never trust anyone who wants rights for organisations.
Polyamory might make sense in situations where shit has gone very, very wrong for everyone. (an apocalypse)
or a planetary colony like in Larry Niven's Legacy of Heorot trilogy where just about 200 people are colonizing a world with hundreds of embryos and the main priority is to populate the colony as fast as possible with as much genetic diversity as possible. But in a functioning society, having it be the norm is ludicrous
no polyamory is one of the last stages before a society completely collapses in on itself because they're too busy being self absorbed and horny to do anything worthwhile.
you will find _polygamy_ where multiple wives are provided for and protected by one husband, but not much else.
Polyamory in a colonization could lead to inbreeding issues. Everyone has to have the same number of male and female ancestors, so having fewer men means greater sharing of ancestors among the population.
The only time polyarmoury makes sense if for the purpose of securing a dynasty/lineage's survival. However this can still lead to inbreeding (just not as bad as say the Hapsburgs).

Apparently I'm an academic because I understood that museum document first pass... and when I hear "intersectional" and "pedigogy" in the same statement I shudder... I mean it's not new.. "pedagogy of the oppressed" is the single most cited document on the education of the educators in the usa.
I still can't believe the whole sexual preference change happened and barely anyone talked about it. The elite was so bold to do it in the open and is wasn't questioned
This the sefinition of pilpul, endless quibbling and argumentation and a debate over the meaning of a context presented as a debate over the context itself. This is atactic to confuse and tire out opposition in political debate.
Sexual Preference
Never going to stop saying it just so if I get grilled for it, I can reference how it changed in the first place. Thanks Dev! :)
The left think they’re playing a sophisticated game, they have no idea we can all easily see what they’re doing. It’s so pathetic and lame, it makes me cringe.
One of the most useful things I learned in philosophy class was "The Redefinist Fallacy". When someone redefines key term(s) in an argument in order to circumvent the point of contention, and simply make their position definitionally correct; usually by reducing a statement to a truism. ex. There's a systematic difference in outcome along racial lines, I define racism as any systematic difference in outcome, therefore racism. Clearly, the contention of "is this racist?" was asking whether or not the difference is caused by discrimination along racial lines, and this has been defined out of the discussion. Racism, the distinction or lack thereof between sex and gender, and many others; so much of leftist ideology is built on this sophistry.
Actually though, useful isn't the right word to describe it, but I don't know what is. The only good it's done me is facilitate more frustration with the world and people around me, as has learning history, economics, and politics in general. Being right doesn't matter when you have majority rule. Leftists are either too stupid and/or emotionally invested to understand the fallacy, or know exactly what they're doing and thus don't care.
2:19 i used to joke that she will be the next doctor
10:33 I'm pretty sure that people who are "anti-LGBTQ" don't use terms like "sexual preference". In fact, I know exactly what terms they would use.
It's like they have the gift of the gab, but rather than anyone being tricked by what they're saying, everyone just wants them to shut up.
That shit about sexual preference was biologically essentialist! The contradictions continue to pile up.
I've worked in museums so long that I 100% understood that description from Queens XD However, had I been sitting in the staff meeting where that was announced, I would have rolled my eyes. My grad degree is in theology and I am a lay minister at my church. As both a museum educator and a lay minister/theologian, my goal has always been, from day one, to make the complex and obscure understood for everybody. I try to avoid obscurantist terminology wherever possible and define my terms in ways that can be understood when I can't. No wonder I don't get along with progressives... Their moral impulse is directly opposite of mine.
Jack has disappeared off the face of the earth and only exists as a meme.
I am SO glad you finally did a a video covering this. The topic has been important to me for a while and seeing you PERFECTLY sum up all the nuances and issues pertaining to it makes me glad more people will understand my mindset when it comes to dealing with elitist jerks who manipulate language to further their agendas.

The funny part about medical language is that it's mostly just the Greek (sometimes Latin) words for the exact same thing in English.
Femur, you know that big bone of the upper thigh? In Latin it means upper part of thigh.
I think it was SMBC that had a comic on that subject which went something like an ancient Greek listening to a modern doctor would hear "Blah blah blah flaming dick blah blah blah. "
that’s funny af

The point seems to be to create the pretense for as many struggle sessions as possible for your political opponents,
to make them squirm under "public scrutiny" where nothing that they can ever say would ever be the right answer or absolve them of guilt.
Funny thing, the ad that popped up for this video was a video with some pink haired girl saying she was a relationship coach preaching about polyamory being good. Of course video had comments turned off.
Same here, wild innit?
0:56 I got a good hearty laugh.
Poor Jack. If only he'd just owned his own behavior instead of being a douchecanoe about it he wouldn't be such a laughstcuck.
The relationship escalator? You don't walk up an escalator, so you're always on the same fucking step. If you go by height for each layer, the analogy says you have no control because escalators move on their own. And what happens on a down escalator? Did I overthink this, probably, but they didn't seem to think of how asinine this looks to begin with.
"It's all so tiresome..."
Sexual preference is and isnt a choice. Depending on when the left wants to use to to cancel someone, or wield it as a soft landing for the topic when preaching to normies.
"If you can control the language, you can control the thots" - Dev, 2022
All of this language stuff has nothing to do with idealistic principles or even cultish beliefs, its about manipulating the system to ensure ones enemies can be penalized for anything, for any reason, at any time. With the rules so in flux, the rules no longer matter.

theres something dystopic about how they’re scrubbing any somewhat memorable or descriptive names in exchange for official serial numbers
It’s like their ideal is a hyper sanitized, grey world
The John McWhorter article is somewhat misplaced. I recommend you look into his work it’s actually very interesting.
Academics trying to become their own unique, and distinct political class is probably not a recent or new thing but it definitely seems to have been exasperated by a much more politically, power driven group.
I dare any of you to explain solo-poly to the Middle Easterner selling magic face cream at a kiosk outside the Lids of your local mall.
