Noted you sharing this on reddit, a well written & meaningful article. I have certainly noticed concept creep, it seems to change politics, perhaps like treaties opposing politicians should devote some time in this age to signing to an agreed understanding of words from time to time, wouldn't know how to introduce such? a petition? Anyhow, appreciated reading your article.
First of all thanks for the support and the kind words! I think you are on to something. We have to hold people to definitions, and get them to define their terms. So much of the "culture wars" boils down to both sides weaponizing the meaning of words-which prevents them from eery discussing how to solve problems.
