"far right!" "Fox News!" "MAGA" etc, etc. Double standards much? Right wing and far right are not labels, they accurately describe a political inclination. Fox News is the name of a business and MAGA was invented by Trump's acolytes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantis Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Oh dear lord, the group think is strong amongst some. Let’s randomly choose an online dictionary: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/label -a short word or phrase descriptive of a person, group, intellectual movement, etc. -a word or phrase indicating that what follows belongs in a particular category or classification -to put in a certain class; classify.

Atlantis Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 So not only are they labels (noun), they are used childishly to label (verb) anything and everything that does not automatically conform to far-left* Wokeism. *a very real term that actually exists (to the shock of some posters) and recently used by those rabid rightwingers at the British Broadcasting Corporation and arch conservative personality Bill Maher. There is nothing wrong with the title of this thread, not matter how hard BMs try to distract, deflect and pretend neutral online dictionaries don’t exist.

Produce a credible definition of woke which doesn't describe it as "awareness". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
