re: #175 Killer Tomato

Would people think twice about ordering fish sticks if they were called sea kitten sticks? Would sea kitten souffl be a hot seller at the local seafood restaurant? Does fillet o’ sea kitten sound even remotely appetizing? Learn more about the new campaign to save fish by changing their name.

Language doesn’t matter either.

Nope. I does not. “Liberal” for example no longer means what it used to—most “conservatives are, in fact more, liberal in their viewpoint than others. Liberal today more closely approximates certain political movements of the early 20th century-ones that had funny uniforms and symbols, like a bunch of sticks tied together with an axe in the middle.
