Dictionary wars have just ramped up. Merriam Webster is throwing a fit that women came over to tell them that the word woman means adult female human.

Now they put out this smarmy message.

Democrats really don’t know how poorly this is all playing. 1/
For those not caught up yet. This is where it started. They asked this question. Image
Hundreds of women and men came over to say something to this effect.

It just shows how much it means to people to have a word that means the adult female human. We should have a word for that, right? It’s a big category. 2/ Image
Instead, this dictionary company started hiding the replies. Then they got so many they just started blocking members of the public. Then they deleted the entire thread and posted that snarky video instead. Image

Thread.

Let’s examine how much of a joke Merriam Webster has become. Remember when a respectable dictionary wouldn’t dream of using a circular definition?

Well let’s look at these definitions. Female. “Having a gender identity the opposite of male.” 1/ Image
So what is male? Why it’s having a gender identity that is the opposite of female, silly.

So the word male means having a gender identity which is the opposite of female which is the opposite of male which is the opposite of female ….

But wait. There is more. 2/ Image
A gender identity is a person’s internal sense of being male (which is the opposite of female which is the oppose of male which is the opposite of female…), female (which is the opposite of male which is the opposite of female…), or some combination or neither. 3/ Image

So you know that dictionary company that is blocking anyone who says a woman is an adult female human?

Welllll…..this is how they now define female.

“Having a gender identify that is the opposite of male.”

Can they get any more ridiculous?

1/ Image
They have walked themselves into the most ridiculous corner. A female cat has a gender identity now? A female fish thinks about its stereotype identity? A female human is nothing more than a social construct?

2/
The more they try to own us all the more they look like petulant children with an unworkable language.

Every accusation is an admission. Remember that. 3/

Democrats have no idea how big the issue of men in women’s sports is. They don’t know that Title IX has been rewritten. They don’t know all the lawsuits trying to stop it. 1/
They don’t know about the Wi Spa where we all found out that there are laws that prevent businesses from offering a private changing room to women. 2/
They don’t know that in some states you can’t have a women’s shelter. They must remain open to any man who wants to enter. They don’t know about the homeless women who were told to shower with a man. 3/

John Deere started to get enormous backlash for being woke. It began to cost them a bunch of money. So they put out this statement which contains the following.

1. They will no longer support or participate in social awareness parades. ….. Image
2. They will audit all company training materials to ensure the absence of socially motivated messages. …..
3. They will reaffirm within the business that the existence of diversity quotas and pronoun identification have never been and are NOT company policy. ….

People have complained that a thread containing terrible headlines was simply a consequence of the news media not knowing what happened.

So here are some more terrible headlines after they did know what happened.

This one is rather spectacular.

1/. Image
This paper didn’t want to displace the main story. So they added a little story at the top.

They mention a series of pops that “sounded like” gunfire. Now you can say they didn’t know for sure but they do say that a rally attendee was kiIIed. From the sounds?

2/. Image
“Nothing justifies….but…”

Before they all get scrubbed I thought I’d put together a thread of some of the worst headlines of the day. Clearly, they were all trying to make Trump look feeble. Marching orders from ??? It backfired rather spectacularly.
