Having a store front

And this, comment, in all its context, is exactly the problem with America today.

"You're little intellectual definition." "We all know what it means"


Maybe 5 months, out of all it's history (back to 1913), was it actually a slogan for a "broader political agenda" namely women's rights. That's essentially it.

It's not an intellectual definition. It's the definition. It's literally what the word means. The article that G presents spells it out. The Right co-opted a word to encapsulate what they believed was the entire "progressive agenda."


You bought, hook.. line.. and sinker. Congrats.

The day that you start putting into question a dictionary definition is literally when there is no source that you do not believe except one that confirms your bias. One that villianizes anything that is even remotely different from yours... because a victim always needs an offender.

It's not JUST the right, but it's just more common there...

It's literally the state of delusional that guys like G live in... because with absolutely zero actual evidence, guys like him believe that Trump won an election he clearly did not...

Even with a clear majority in the Supreme Court, nothing.

What happens in 2024 if Trump runs again and loses? That one obviously was rigged too.

Do we storm the Capitol again?

It's always rigged unless you win.. and even when you do, other parts where you lost were rigged too..

For a group that says they love Democracy and freedom, they sure know how to bow down to authoritarianism.


What are you even talking about Trump

rigged elections not rigged whatever

Supreme court???

we were talking about the word Woke not in 1913 ir whatever

But in popular culture over the last 10 years

Truth is the Left is all of a sudden having temper tantrums over the word woke lately

when few years back they were falling over each other to be known as woke'

That's all my point was

I like hyperbole sometimes too, but we have quite a few problems and Vic being correct about how language works isn't one of them.

Maybe 5 months, out of all it's history (back to 1913), was it actually a slogan for a "broader political agenda" namely women's rights. That's essentially it.

No. The term was mainstreamed by Black Lives Matter, and if I recall it was after Michael Brown was killed. Black Lives Matters' founders are, to quote one, "trained Marxists." Specifically, neo-Marxists, as they're into Critical Theory, intersectionality, etc. THIS is why the term became contextualized with a "broader political agenda", due to the agenda of the people mainstreaming it.

It's not an intellectual definition. It's the definition. It's literally what the word means.

Words mean whatever their common usage is. Dictionaries REFLECT that usage, they don't dictate it. That's why dictionaries change. Or, sometimes, activists just get dictionaries to add/change definitions (as in recently).

Vic is absolutely correct. Because that is now the common usage of the word, that IS what it means. The dictionaries can either catch up or not, that just speaks to the quality of dictionaries.

The article that G presents spells it out. The Right co-opted a word to encapsulate what they believed was the entire "progressive agenda."

Progressives themselves, for the most part, will disagree that someone is "woke" if they disagree with any of their agenda. The term was mainstreamed by neo-Marxists so, surprise, that's the common usage. The right mocks it, for sure, but they didn't co-opt it.

You bought, hook.. line.. and sinker. Congrats.

This is unearned smugness. Boooo!

The day that you start putting into question a dictionary definition is literally when there is no source that you do not believe except one that confirms your bias. One that villianizes anything that is even remotely different from yours... because a victim always needs an offender.

Great projection. I seem to remember the definition of "racism" being changed somewhat recently, by people (progressives) who villainize anyone who believes even remotely differently than them...and they're perpetual victims who always need offenders.

Bravo. 10/10

It's not JUST the right, but it's just more common there...

You think the right seeks to manipulate language more than the left? I...just can't.

It's literally the state of delusional that guys like G live in... because with absolutely zero actual evidence, guys like him believe that Trump won an election he clearly did not...

And the people in the state of delusion that the election was stolen from Hillary...? The WH Press Secretary who just said the governor's election was stolen from Stacey Abrams in 2018?

What happens in 2024 if Trump runs again and loses? That one obviously was rigged too.

Do we storm the Capitol again?

Do we implant operatives to encourage them to do it, then let a bunch of them walk right in, then lie about them killing people and shoot one of them in the face? Do we act like it was the worst thing ever after downplaying months of MORE violent riots? AGAIN?

Or, ya know, we could just have more security instead of pulling a political stunt. Like we did when people tried to storm the White House, burned down a secret service station and set St. John's Church on fire and then we all forgot about it.

It's always rigged unless you win.. and even when you do, other parts where you lost were rigged too..

Remember you said this come mid-November.

For a group that says they love Democracy and freedom, they sure know how to bow down to authoritarianism.

Not as much as the ones who were convinced to support mass coerced injections and forced shutdowns of our economy, but hey, they're doing their best.

You're correct. It's because their ideology (intentionally) makes them insufferably sensitive and they can't handle being mocked.
 


What's interesting and concerning its not just younger people a lot of older people too

That first one She wasn't going to do it and he said it was hurting people feelings and she quickly went along with it

This is what we see all the time that constant barrage of how this and that is making people feel bad

They are really capitalizing on this kind of shaming But really the worse thing is how many people are just led with bit in mouth by this emotional argument

I hear a lot Life ins is an emotional sale clearly many people lose all intelligent when hit with emotional arguments
 
So wtf does any of the stupid shit that many of you have written over the past posts have anything to do with the topic of having a storefront? Is this still the "Insurance Forum" or the I am a person with nothing to do with my life but write idiotic bullshit forum?
