Turns out it wasn't the authoritarian governments that would rewrite the dictionary, it was tech corporations appeasing advertising and payment corporations.

I mean, said corporations are empowered to be able to do this by authoritarian governments that are largely bought and paid for by said corporations, who now run said failed democracies as puppet governments of corporate interests.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
