The word cancled. Stop misusing the poor thing. Shows get cancled, comics get cancled. PEOPLE DO NOT GET CANCLED! Unless you kill them, I guess.

Boomer. 95% of you don't know what the word means. Baby Boomer. Late 70s and 80s where people were rushing to have kids. Also do a LOT of coke. I am not a boomer. I'm gen x. And damn happy to be.

Cantalope. Just get out of here. You are melon. Be proud! Honeydew can keep it's name though.

It's more dehumanizing and unperson, but I get the concept of cancel culture it's the age old shunning of people by other people who ironically claim diversity and inclusive is there strength.

Social media is human right according to Twitter CEO (bare faced liar). People go after online presence, IRL jobs and even payment processors. They love counting other peoples money.

And there's no need to use words like ♥♥♥♥♥, especially when the "♥♥♥♥♥" has to give you a lesson in economics and history.

LOL! I guess you aren´t able to "educate" anyone on anything. The NSDAP established a fascist regime and the only "state influence" on the economy was price fixing after they started the war.

All you do is spout revisionist propaganda for the ill-informed throwing around amusingly transparent talking points.

In ur case soshulism is by far the most overused word. ^^
Incorrect as usual.

Socialism is where the government or the people control the means of production.

Hitler seized Jewish businesses and gave them to the "people" and in this case "the people" were loyalists to the Nazi Party. Hitler also told his loyalist what to create, factories were repurposed for a war footing. The Nazis also lead a war on any non-loyalist business, the Night of Broken Glass the Nazi Party allowed citizens to torch anyone not loyal to Nazis in a very purge-like fashion. So state sanctioned violence against businesses the "state" didn't support.

There's no revisionist history about it, it's simply history. Just because you were taught incorrectly by teachers who had an agenda isn't everyone elses fault. And the fact that you don't know this stuff shows that Nazi as a word is losing it's meaning.

To be honest if you pay attention to the news/media/marketing most words are becoming meaningless.

You have all the obvious ones which are mentioned here. But you don't see people calling out others when someone misuses a word especially if they have an agenda behind misusing the word.

Words like racist, sexist, homophobe, transphobe, are all words that are obviously misused and nobody calls them out because they're usually pushing some type of agenda. Racism is thinking less of another race and then acting on that belief, and yet it's come to mean anytime two different races have any kind of disagreement. Same thing like words like transphobic. It's supposed to mean the irrational fear or prejudice against transgender people, but it's come to mean anytime two people disagree.

But you're also seeing it with words like infrastructure, which can mean anything they want it to. Another word that less controversial are Open World Games or RPG.

How many games claim to be open world but they REALLY aren't. Or RPG depending on your definition of RPG games are drastically different. Some would claim that RPG means just having stats, a character creation, and leveling up is an RPG. Some claim that the storyline needs to give you many options to play how you want.

Some of these companies know that their games aren't truly open world but they'll market it as such. (Going back to my previous argument) they'll lie about a word because they have an agenda to sell games.

Community standards is another one of those words that are over used.

Big tech has a bias and yet they claim to have "standards" and they claim to be "fair" but those are just lies that are prettily told to push an agenda. The words have lost their meaning because "fair or community standards is anything they want it to be, even beyond their stated objectives. A good example of this is Youtube banning certain view points.

Publisher vs Platform seems to have lost all meaning. Lots of platforms acting like publishers and doing things that should threaten to drastically change their companies standings and yet so far nothing has really happened.
