In fairness to his memory...I've spent four years researching and writing a book about gay history that actually DOES aim to teach people stuff. But some of youse guys have to cure yourselves of what I call Yoda syndrome, seeing us as beloved ancient peapods who might cough some dying wisdom at you.
A young gay man looked at me very sincerely yesterday and said, with gleaming earnestness, "People your age still have so much to teach us," and I don't want to go into details, but if anyone has any experience with stuff like disposing of a body, please message me.
When someone posts something that looks like this. With airspace between every sentence to emphasize profundity. Even in sentence fragments. Because of concision. Which is the most powerful weapon we have. The likelier it is that you are reading some terrible overshared AI-generated crap.
Yeah, there is an all but open decision, in many different media, to say, "Many of us can make a great deal of money if we all agree to retcon the bad stuff out of the official story." I want to ask every one involved if they'd have sent their little boy to Neverland for an unsupervised "sleepover."
The sanitization and sanctification of Michael Jackson is one of those subjects I can't seem to talk about with calmness or rationality; I just stare at these money-machine enterprises and feel revulsion. I think I'll skip the discourse on this upcoming movie.
And the people who use the terms you object to would say the EXACT same thing. I can understand being mad at scolds who run around insisting that everyone has to use new terms. But there's not much to defend in being irritated about people who simply choose to use them.
My random thought for 2028: Campaigning directly to parents on the issue of closely regulating AI friend programs used by minors could be a big winning issue for a Democrat among a lot of key constituencies.
"Value-adding behavior" is literally jargon. You can just say "useful." But I'm not going to make a big deal of it, because I think your underlying point is more important than the words you use. See how easy that is?
I'm so out of patience with this kind of mockery. Yes, progressive language is jargon-y and occasionally irritating. You know how long ago that started? Roughly the dawn of time. So be irritated privately. But whining about it is like discrediting a picket sign because you hate the font.
People using the term "justice involved population" is Not. A. Real. Problem. And mocking it in a speech is like calling Democrats "pronoun-obsessed." It's playing to the cheapest seats in the house.
If your thing is inventing demons on the left in order to depict progressivism as some kind of disease, go be a Republican. I think Beshear is basically a good guy, but this kind of self-credentialing is pandering trash.
Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear tells Michigan Democrats the party has "let advocacy speak seep into our language." He gives the example of calling inmates the "justice involved population." "If we want to be the party of the people, we've got to talk like we are people," he says.
