i am looking for a word, its like a motorcycle, but it has 4 wheels and puts you into a giant metal and glass container to carry you around in

2018-08-13 18:44:01 UTC  

better not use the term motorcycle though, might undermine the term

2018-08-13 18:44:08 UTC  

Yes, don't.

2018-08-13 18:44:13 UTC  

Are you playing limbo with the point right now?

2018-08-13 18:44:29 UTC  

hold on

2018-08-13 18:44:40 UTC  

Use your words to describe the concept if no word exists specifically to describe it. We have a robust language, so use it to its fullest extent.

2018-08-13 18:44:59 UTC  

good lord this is stupid, I'm done here and going to ~~kill some villain in a game~~ subject myself to propaganda

2018-08-13 18:45:12 UTC  

doesn't something being unintentional mean it cannot be propaganda? as part of the definition of propaganda is that it is done intentionally.

2018-08-13 18:45:16 UTC  

Yes

2018-08-13 18:45:18 UTC  

But Genital Jousting is propaganda for sure.
```

Genital Jousting is largely about disarming masculinity. In a patriarchal society, penises are associated with power. They are considered the dominant sexual organ. But in Genital Jousting, they are often the butt of the joke```

2018-08-13 18:45:26 UTC  

That's what I've been saying, @Grenade123

2018-08-13 18:45:28 UTC  

unintentionally intentional

2018-08-13 18:46:08 UTC  

I make funny penis game heehee to save the world from toxic masculinity

2018-08-13 18:46:09 UTC  

you can start with term A, which has mandetory connotations 1 and 2 and 3, and say that in stead of connotation 2 you actually mean connotation 2*, which changes term A to what you do mean, without damaging anything about term A, as you just tried to describe a word you didnt know a word for

2018-08-13 18:46:31 UTC  

however, if someone is so brand-washed, all they know is propaganda, can they make propaganda without intentionally meaning to do so?

2018-08-13 18:46:40 UTC  

You can't use the antithesis of a thing to directly describe a thing

2018-08-13 18:46:48 UTC  

No, propaganda is planned

2018-08-13 18:46:55 UTC  

You can make biased trash

2018-08-13 18:47:06 UTC  

they would be spreading propaganda, but not making it then

2018-08-13 18:47:07 UTC  

how inflexible of you

2018-08-13 18:47:16 UTC  

But propaganda is a *specific* thing, and we have many words to describe things that are not propaganda

2018-08-13 18:47:29 UTC  

excuse you, your opinion is unintentional propaganda, cease and desist

2018-08-13 18:47:35 UTC  

here i am trying to describe something, and you claim im sabotaging word meanings, how rude

2018-08-13 18:48:00 UTC  

im off to go sabotage words now

2018-08-13 18:48:02 UTC  

I've explained how you can correctly describe it

2018-08-13 18:48:06 UTC  

leme just get me verbal TNT

2018-08-13 18:48:12 UTC  

Rather than calling every game with a plot propaganda

2018-08-13 18:48:17 UTC  

and my literary gun

2018-08-13 18:48:38 UTC  

to execute some mother fucking words right in there god damn mouths the pieces of shit

2018-08-13 18:48:44 UTC  

that will show you

2018-08-13 18:49:03 UTC  

Are you going to commit some peaceful terrorism?

2018-08-13 18:49:05 UTC  

being used where you are not the exact thing you meant but with additional descriptors to do mean what i wanted to say

2018-08-13 18:49:28 UTC  

hehehe

2018-08-13 18:49:56 UTC  

@>Cytos, de lieve goede synth what are you trying to describe that you have categorized as "unintentional propaganda" I see you mentioned We Happy Few and people taking it as "UK tolerence dystopia run by the gay agenda" which was most likely not the intent.

2018-08-13 18:50:55 UTC  

so people created a meme, a piece of propaganda, because they interpreted something in we happy few which likely was not intended (i dont know how woke the devs are)

2018-08-13 18:51:49 UTC  

Is Mario unintentional propaganda because Sarkeesian interprets it as forwarding the idea that women are damsels in distress?

2018-08-13 18:51:54 UTC  

yes

2018-08-13 18:52:21 UTC  

So then every game is unintentional propaganda because people can make any interpretation.

2018-08-13 18:52:22 UTC  

mario could be unintentional propaganda for lizards cucking you with a princess, like loping seems to think

2018-08-13 18:52:28 UTC  

literally any interpretation

2018-08-13 18:52:36 UTC  

does life imitate art, or art imitate life
