Just like "liberty", "fascism", "freedom", "bigotry", "woke", "liberal", "communist", "nazi", "supremacist", "ethical", "feminism", "gender" and many others.

It's easier to push a political agenda if you empty words of all meaning just to turn them into buzzwords that can mean whatever you want them to be in order to trigger outrage

english teachers giving you marks whenever you mention feminism:

Sorry, don't you like it when I mention the things that you don't agree with? Should I just have mentioned "woke" and "communist" to make you feel better?

that's not what I meant, I was joking about how english teachers seemingly give you free marks when you mention feminism or patriarchy

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
