      No. They don’t - no matter how desperately you want them to. The basic idea behind socialism hasn’t changed. The basic idea behind democracy hasn’t changed.

      You just want them to have changed so that you don’t have to account for the fact that you bought the bullshit for the sake of convenience.

      I’m not really sure what to tell u here

      That’s because you have no argument.

        That is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard being said about language and how language works (and half my degree was in Linguistics).

        If you can’t admit language changes, you’re gonna have a bad time.

          For someone who purports to be so educated in language your reading comprehension sure is worthy of the circular filing cabinet.

          Do you, Mister-Wannabe-Jordan-Peterson, understand what the term…

          political concepts

          …mean?
