Gosh they really like to redefine words to suit their purposes....
Your brain is the battleground, and words are indeed weapons. This is why holding power over education, news, entertainment, "experts" and such are very important because they control the definitions of words as well as putting them into actual practice.
This is how Fauci wriggled out from under Rand Paul’s latest “Jesus Christ just admit it, we all know it was you and we have proof” accusation. Fauci claimed he hadn’t lied when he said “I didn’t do gain of function research” because even though the definition of GoF was publicly changed to not exist by the NIH a few weeks ago, they had internally changed it in 2018, so when he said he didn’t do it in 2020, he meant he didn’t do any of it using the updated definition of the term, which was only made public months afterwards, and days after the evidence came out of him doing what was previously known as GoF
The man deserves to be shackled and devoured by dogs.
Neat, I love seeing examples of pilpul in action.
Leftists Love Word Games.
What’s hilarious is Merriam-Webster won’t even admit the definition was immunization less than a decade ago. They only mention Cowpox in the etymology.
The definition was immunization until it became clear that 'breakthrough infections' of covid weren't isolated incidents but occured roughly 50% of the time.
It was changed from immunization in 2015. It was recently changed again because of that. They have been planning these “partial efficacy vaccines” for years now.
Definitions of words need to be based on how people have always used them, not on what the current evolving scientific thinking is. The "Science" is run by big pharma.
True - but they've generally duped the public. Now they really gotta go back and do damage control to suit their narratives.
That's not what the image you posted says. 'Prevent' until 2015. And 'immunity' until two months ago.
Now it's 'protection'.
Produce “immunity” is the medical version of legalese. Essentially they changed it from successfully granting immunization to potentially granting immunization.
The pre-2015 defenition doesn't even contain the word 'immunity' in any form.
Prevention is immunization. Or at least it used to be before immunization was redefined.
Because we all remember the breakthrough cases of polio and smallpox. Oh wait
The original change was probably about the notoriously shitty influenza shots.
At this point, I know of a bunch of people who I know personally, including my 90 year old grandma, who have had COVID.
AnecdotallyIn my lived experience, COVID has a 100% survival rate.Life nowadays seems like a MMO where you just start the game, pay no real money and you continuously bump into the cheaters, hackers and people that bought the highest level account and are doing whatever they please because Game Masters, Devs and those in charge of the game, do not give a fuck. Worst MMO ever, graphic is kind of okay, I see some nice female tiddies every now and then so that's a plus... WAIT, NO THIS MMO SUCKS!
Call me crazy but I didn't think you could use the word you're defining in the definition.
Whores.
Pre-2015 was the correct definition.
Interesting how they changed the definition just before Trump took office.
Almost like it was planned to get rid of him.
Not surprised.. since women can have dicks these days.
All these fucksticks think like they're texting anymore. Because they grew up on it. That was their discourse. Monkeys flinging shit.
crikey
We've finally perfected the formula!!!
