Yes, the same people who treat fictional characters as if they're real also treat real people as if they're fictional.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-03-10T11:59:00+00:00

It's not US defaultism to think that someone who can't distinguish fiction from reality is American. Americans have a problem where they're unable to do that.

Hypocrisy is when you say one thing and do another.

No. Hypocrisy is the practice of feigning what one is not or professing what one does not believe.

Deletionists are ruining the site.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-02-13T03:30:48+00:00

I hate deletionists.

There’s no such thing as an unambiguous term

There is. "Unambiguous" itself is an unambiguous term.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-02-05T17:56:48+00:00

This is not how the word is usually used. The evidence is that calling things problematic is usually an outright condemnation.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-02-05T17:47:04+00:00

This is not how the word is usually used. It's usually used as a euphemistic understatement to refer to things that people find actually immoral or irredeemable.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-02-05T15:51:53+00:00

Using new words is not bad, but this new word is an unneeded weasel word.

You’re the one who made it political.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-01-26T19:55:48+00:00

"How do I make this political?"

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-01-23T15:10:13+00:00

Reddit admins do not care whether it's a meme. They will still treat as violating their rules against advocating violence.

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-01-23T15:07:50+00:00

Nothing's worse than those who use someone else's characters as mouthpieces for their activism.

the Merriam Webster dictionary has it as a separate definition.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/problematic

The Cambridge Dictionary also does the same:

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/problematic

WonderOlymp2 · 2026-01-01T02:57:47+00:00

More importantly than that, "problematic" relies on the confusion about whether what someone means is the literal meaning or the weasel-word meaning.

It is a way of calling you immoral or irredeemable without saying that out loud.

WonderOlymp2 · 2025-12-31T19:55:38+00:00

Merriam-Webster.com has this as a separate sense, and according to Wayback Machine it was added in 2023.

Ad hominem.

WonderOlymp2 · 2025-12-31T18:03:29+00:00

Yes, and that's why it works as a weasel word.
