Here's just an small example of the problem rampant in America today. Any citizen can go to authoritative sources, such as a thesaurus, and using their own experience, knowledge, and intellect look at an issue and make a sensible judgement.
However, that sort of thing is discouraged now. Average citizens shouldn't look for answers online or in books, they don't have the required credentials and education to come to a valid conclusion.
Therefore, we need an elite expert to examine all the evidence and provide everyone else with the correct answer. Pay no attention to what your own common sense would tell you.
especially : exaltation of the tribe above other groups
2
: strong in-group loyalty
Ah, #2 definitely describes modern #Diversity (TM).
Fascist groups often bend language. The Nazis were national socialists, but put actual socialists in concentration camps. This isn't a definition thing, it's a propaganda thing.
Thanks for the clarification. Dictionaries and thesauruses absolutely the worst kind of propaganda. Additionally, definitions are often confusingly at cross-purposes with each other. Straight-up Commie Shit.
Wait a second, weren't you the pedant in the above thread extolling virtues of living language and that dictionaries and thesauri have no standing in modern society? You're not only wrongo - but also have a very short memory. You should get that checked out - by an MD with high MCAT scores. Or someone diverse who didn't study as hard. Your choice.
Tribalism is a synonym for diversity.
I'm sure you'll provide us with the link to that source. The famous synonym guy, Roget, says you are incorrect.
I am the source, the only one of importance here on this thread. Resorting to a thesaurus is past folly, it veers into stupidity.

A thesaurus is the antonym of a living language.
But, just like that guyтАЩs supposed example of an antonym, he wonтАЩt find that either in RogetтАЩs.
Thesaurus's simply report on usage. Like a dictionary.
Websters sez:
tribalism
noun

: tribal consciousness and loyalty
especially : exaltation of the tribe above other groups
2
: strong in-group loyalty

Fascist groups often bend language. The Nazis were national socialists, but put actual socialists in concentration camps. This isn't a definition thing, it's a propaganda thing.
Which is why theyтАЩre clustered around on here like emo buzzards, thinking they can feed on a fear that isnтАЩt here.

For instance:
Merriam-Webster definition of "jackass":
1. : DONKEY
especially : a male donkey
2. : a stupid, annoying, or detestable person
Ad hominems just make me ignore your points. Not that you really have any.
Perhaps the point is responding to nonsense with nonsense. Perhaps.
Or just a jackass thing.
ShouldnтАЩt you set it as your avatar then?
With a little bag of rocks on his back and a pickaxe for digging up those calcium deposits
Hush.
gosh that's an impressive feat of language.
What tribe are you with?
*I have a keen appreciation for the diversity of ethnic origins .. .
i don't remember
You've exposed yourself as a blithering solipsistic idiot, Han.
Solipsistic perhaps; but blithering? Surely you can find something more accurate.
Wrongo.
it's quite correct actually.
Your weird little attempts at sentences are most unimpressive. Get over yourself skipper.
Now say something condescending. Thanks!
lol i'm not the one spouting brilliancies like 'wrongo'

No, actually I didnтАЩt say those things. Read it agayne, old chumme
You are correct, you could never spout anything brilliant, or formulate a coherent argument. Thanks again.
How could you know? IтАЩve read yer schtuff
So boring. Bye.
