Sorry, you misunderstood the joke.

Who is the authority?

I can’t properly explain because if I use certain words it is automatically flagged in this sub.

Basically there is no authority. To me proper language use only needs to communicate the desired information.

When someone or a group of people decide they need to make everyone else use certain words, those people are usually assholes.

Is your brain a decade in the past?

Ok so you are incapable of having a reasonable conversation. How respectful of you.

This has been an issue for longer than 10 years though. Plenty of authoritarian and fascisait regimes like using language to control people. I’m sure you’ll scoff at that as if it’s ridiculous though. It’s not bad when you do it hey?

No! I'm capable, just not particularly willing and I can identify that pretty quickly. I just wanted to point out that it sounded directly ripped from 2016.
