[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green]To further ruin your day: Dictionary definitions are supposed to be based on the common usage of the word. So if 99% of the population defines a word in a certain way then guess what? That becomes it's definition.[/QUOTE]
My day isn't ruined at all - you've been made to look like Ish's version of Cenk Uygur by a few people now and it's been pretty entertaining
so when Jeff bans somebody from ISH who constantly acts like a jackass troll (and has been warned to stop repeatedly) he is being Orwellian?
:lol :lol :lol
[QUOTE=NumberSix]I've seen his 3 posts he directed at her. Was he a dick? Sure. I don't see where the "incitement" was though. He called her a dude and said she was illiterate. I haven't seen anything of him telling other people to attack her.[/QUOTE]
I think it stems past just this one incident. Look I mean it's their platform, and they make the call. If he doesn't like it, he is free to start his own social network, as are you.
[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green]This is getting dull. The reality tv definition states, "The definition of Orwellian is something that resembles the world that George Orwell described in his book 1984." That book is about the dangers of totalitarian government. No, really, I am not making this up.The third definition is:
"Of, relating to, or evocative of the works of George Orwell, especially the satirical novel 1984, which depicts a futuristic [B]totalitarian state.[/B]"
That would be about government. Unless you now want to argue whagt "totalitarian state" means...which I'm not going to do, because this really has become tedious.[/QUOTE]
You don't seem to be aware of what the word "especially" means. Here's a hint: it doesn't and never has meant "all." You've just refuted your own argument. Not to mention that only one person has used the word, and you respond as if that word only has the narrow definition [I]you[/I] attribute to it, and as if it was being used by everyone (it was [I]the only argument [/I]being made in your eyes), to justify your posting that inane and completely irrelevant meme.

Wow, the sheer lack of comprehension of some people is quite incredible. It's like you don't actually think [I]at all[/I] but merely jump on whatever "team" fits more neatly with your prejudices. In the context of the discussion that is being had your post makes no sense whatsoever. No one has even come close to implying what you're saying, but you and RMWG keep repeating this inanity as if it becomes more true just because you keep saying it. LEARN TO READ YOU FOOL.
[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green][B]No, I will not.[/B] Something that I will point out: Every reality TV series is a bunch of people being compensated in some way for giving the viewing public TMI and often these shows are faked with writers. In Orwell's novel the people are being monitored by the state and have no choice in the matter. The example used isn't great. But the actual definition has to do with government overreach.[/QUOTE]
A cowardly retreat, but honest :roll:

No reason for argument to get personal, guys.

The two of you are acting like children with a dictionary. Get over yourselves.
These lefties of ISH just can't help but make themselves look stupid XD. I never truly realized how sheepy and ignorant the modern left has become until this year. RMWG is a shining example of the modern democratic party voter.

I thought so too but he actually stated in another thread that he will be voting for Trump.
