Appeal to Authority

Actual research

I promise your random Mastodon screenshot is not as definitive as millennia of language evolution. Also, you're assuming I'm american when I could damn well be a European etymologist for all you know

Ad hominem? I just called you "sweetie", sweetie 😂

You're subverting the conversation by making points about my character rather than actually acknowledging the fact that you just have no counter argument to what was presented to you.

Ad hominem. Continue digging.

No sweetie. It is yourself who has no argument whatsoever apart from Trumpers argument that they can call anything the way they want and it will make it so 😂

I'm not the one proclaiming what a word means, you are. I'm telling you, "this is how literally billions of people use this word every day despite the definition" and you're saying "nuhuh use it this way cause this how the people I like use it" hence your Mastodon screenshot lol

I can't honestly believe that you think peddling the authority's definition, instead of using the word the way the common man does, is anything other than fueling those authoritarians to write those definitions however they see fit and forcing you to use words as they wish. Is your hand in the dictionary's pockets?

Yes sweetie. Have a cookie.
