You did better than me. I even credited the wrong guy. It was not AJ speaking. I'll finish part 1a. LindyBill would want us to. Yeah - the meaning of words. At least BJ wanted full precision "That depends on what the meaning of "is" is." Guess he didn't get the full service.

Google word definition update on Android phones - (h/t Woody_Nickels)

Previously on this thread - update on definition of WMD.

Update on definition of "vaccine".

Update on definition of "domestic terrorist". (Thanks Ted and AG Garland)

Update on definition of "voter fraud" (nothing to see here if not "widespread" WTF?)

Update on definition of election procedure. (Ranked choice voting)

Update on definition of voting precinct (unmanned ballot drop box?)

Update on definition of voter (documented immigrant - they have a warrant to use as an ID!)

Update on definition of ballot (any old copy made by Xerox, no envelope signature necessary)

Wishlist for definition of voter (undocumented anywhere people, voting from anywhere)

Video didn't get to much of interest until 50:00 when he started talking about identifying the cause and effect relationships of "volition", aka social science, so that it can be treated as real Science©, not fake Science™.

DMaA: "Most electrical engineers do not understand Maxwell's equations."

That's a quote from the video - LOL! The good news he says is that we don't have to, even though he considers it one of the most important discoveries of mankind. It's not important that everyone knows about "volition" either, only that it gets treated like a real science by real scientists outside of the physical sciences.

A new one for the "precision semantics" list: Globalist

‘Globalist’ Is an Antisemitic Slur That Should Be Banned, Argues Legacy Media

breitbart.com
I listened to the whole thing. I looked up the rest of the series. I kept thinking about his one statement on solving problems and having "precision semantics". Then I started to think about how the dims keep changing the definition / usage of terms such as "undocumented immigrant". Anti -precision hmmmm,
I guess we'll have to call them "Davos Men". Too sexist?
