Webster's Dictionary has changed its definition of the term preference to include the new understanding that it is "offensive" as regards "sexual preference." This new definition was made in real time, after Senator Mazie Hirono claimed the long standing, inoffensive term, was offensive, on the Senate floor. This claim was made to discredit Judge Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court nomination, and for no other reason.

You've got to give a point to the post-modernists, because they are doing an amazing job proving that many abstract concepts people did consider to be bases of our civilization are in fact meaningless.

Laws mean nothing if noone is enforcing them...
Descriptive language means nothing if you can change definitions 3 times a day...
Voting is meaningless if everyone knows one side will be cheating...
