Reply to comment by turndownforwomp in Tankie is just liberal "woke" by HollowVesterian

What internet echo chamber do you refer to exactly? Also you still didn't say how I was an ideologue, probably because you're talking out of your arse.

You’re an ideologue because your desire to dismiss all of these words clearly comes from political and social positions that incline you to dismiss any and all uses of those words. They’re not meaningless, you just want to claim that so you never have to respond to anyone pointing out that something may be racist or bigoted. “Those words don’t really mean anything” is a cop out from someone who hasn’t touched grass in a while

Ok so what is my political or social position then?

Someone who hasn't touched grass in a while? Coming from someone who sounds like they're terminally online, I'll take that as a compliment.

The claim “these words don’t mean anything anymore” when they are daily used in communication in meaningful ways that the vast majority of English speakers understand and can explain is…laughable and nonsensical

I'm happy to see you show how dumb you are, I really am.

I’m happy to see you can’t come up with a coherent response to me pointing out that words do in fact have meaning.

And I'm happy to laugh at your fumbling around for someone to care.

It’s pretty telling that you keep responding but can’t defend yourself against the points I’ve made.

Obviously this is a softball argument because, i have said, the words do have established meanings the majority of us agree on and you trying to calming otherwise is a joke but it’s still fun

You can keep saying all you want, but you're just coming off as quite the fool. And I'm happy to indulge such foolish behaviour, but I'm not arguing with you because you're shouting in to a void and it's funny to watch such futility.

If you’re not going to keep defending your stupid claim that words don’t have meanings I’m done here. Since you’re not defending it, and it was so stupid to begin with, I’ll just take this W and hope you learn critical thinking someday.

You can say it's a stupid claim and take a "W" (whatever the fuck that is), still doesn't make you right in any way, shape or form. So like with the rest of your argument, enjoy your imaginary fun.

Words have definitions, bro. I’m right, you’re wrong. Everyone knows what racist and bigot and all those other words you listed mean and they’re used correctly all the time. Your claim was stupid, mine is just observable truth.

"I'm right, yoire wrong"

Gee I remember hearing that in a playground years ago and it sounded as stupid then as it does now. Maybe you need a life.

I’m sure you’ve heard people tell you you’re wrong many times since the playground, especially given your opinion on how words work. I can’t imagine you’ve ever gotten a good grade on an essay with your particular approach to the English language
