As much of a win as this is, I wish they'd show half as much support for the rest of the rights we're guaranteed by the Constitution.
"I'd like to read a novel."
"Here, try this not-a-novel."

Like most worker cooperatives, it probably wouldn't last a year.
Bleeding hearts always clot surprisingly fast when it comes to those they don't like.
According to my mathematician wife, "it's got the same problem most paradoxes do in that it's self-referential".
Apparently all Japanese is English if an English person is speaking it.

We're not talking about those words, I don't play whataboutism.
Whatever you say bruh.
But fine, we won't refer to any other loanwords. Instead, I'll ask you to generalize whatever your position is: that is, can you provide a consistent definition of "English word" that will include what you consider to be English words and exclude "entrepreneur" and "schadenfreude" and any other words that you don't think are English?

The linguistic explanation for what you're getting hung up on here is pretty straightforward (though whether you accept it or not remains to be seen), but I'll save it for later in the conversation to keep our discussion on topic in the meantime.

Might be low hanging fruit, but I just got banned from memes.ml for saying what instance it's in.

The post in question, if interested:
Also, I don't know how to see which mod/admin banned me, so if you know how to in the modlog, definitely let me know.
Banned for 7 days, so I'm not super mad or anything - I just thought it was funny.

The comment in question:
"To everyone arriving here from /all, remember that this is a .ml community when you attempt to engage in good faith."
Edit: Sorry for the double post - I just got back after being gone all day and didn't realize someone else had made a post about my comment! There's a bit of discussion here so I was going to leave it, but if the mods would rather delete it, feel free!
