I’m my second statement, I expand on that. I explain WHY that’s what I BELIEVE they mean. I point out that a lot of people in the USA don’t know the actual definition. Implying I KNOW THE DEFINITION. BUT words have different meaning in different cultures. Which is why I explain it in the first place…
“They do not know the dictionary/philosophical definition of the term, that people on Lemmy beat on relentlessly.”
This frames average americans as victims of Lemmy users explaining the definition of words to them. The average american is a dip sniffing, catcalling, big truck driving asshole with a chip on their shoulder because they have to live next to people that are different from them. I’m an American who’s lived here my whole life all across the country. What you’re saying doesn’t hit AT ALL

Ok. The average American has no idea about Lemmy, so no.
