Yeah, because only one side cares about language and the words we use. The other side is a bunch of disengenous fuck bags with zero beliefs outside of economics
I feel "economice" is too wide of a phrase to be used with these cunts.
They don't believe in economics, they believe in self service, control, and grifting as much as they can.
It's not economics, it's taking advantage of the mentally disabled half of the population.
Yeah, I used the term loosely to represent Money. No American government has displayed sound economic policy in terms of their populace. Economics itself is a broken fake science that does not factor in real world costs like human lives, environmental damage, etc...
People across the political spectrum care. But views vary significantly around what words and language should be encouraged and what should be censored.
Nobody with an ounce of authority is actually against censorship of one degree or another. FFS, some of the biggest modern media censors are the wanna-be libertarian scalds of the Obama administration (Bari Weiss being an obvious example). Censorship is a method of shaping public perception and encouraging civil actions of one sort or another. The irony of Kirk's death is that he repeatedly extolled the virtues of political violence only to eat shit when one of his own Groyper buddies went off the reservation. Hell, his final breath was expended snarkily deflecting the threat of mass shootings onto "gang violence".
Anyone who says they don't care about the political use of language is either nakedly naive or blowing smoke up your ass. And you can often tell one from the other by asking whether they're old enough to buy their own beer.
