I’m more aware of it on the left but I’m sure it exists on the right too, but there is a big problem w/ word thinking. “Safety”, “hate”, “racist/racism”. “Diversity”, “marginalized”, “wrong side of history”. I could go on but you get the point. What do these even mean?

Hard to even have a discussion w/ ppl who throw this jargon around unironically. The first thing they may do is cry foul just for being asked to specify what they mean by their favorite term. If they’re a little more honest, they will define their version, but that’s time wasting

I realize all of this is on purpose: it’s the duplicitous little games they play. But even for the ones who aren’t doing it cynically (who knows how many know better vs those who don’t), it’s just a sign of lazy thinking. To not use clear language & simply say what you mean.
