Talk:Essay:Best New Conservative Words (view source)
Revision as of 22:23, March 4, 2013
, 22:23, March 4, 2013→Definition
I have read the essay and skimmed through the huge archives of this talk page, but I didn't find any reference to a reliable, objective, independent definition of "best new conservative word". By the way, [http://www.oed.com/timelines this] is interesting reliable information on the increase of the total number of words in the English language.

The vast majority of so-called "Conservative" words shown here are just words without any sort of difference between a Conservative use and a Liberal use (e.g. activism, addictive, aerobics, accuracy, alarmism, alcoholism, etc.). And somehow the statistics at the top of the page claim that the usage of "Conservative" words are growing at an exponential rate compared to "Liberal" words! It is clear that this is just a blatant example of fact-twisting employed in order to further Conservative propaganda. [[User:RaymondZ|RaymondZ]] 17:23, 4 March 2013 (EST)
