From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions.

Scooby are you going to allow willful misinformation on this blog? You have freedom in speech as long it does not harm others. This nonsense could harm others. Fuaci did not personally fund coronavirus research at Wuhan. This is medical disinformation. Saying we allow the Chinese to

The idea that something like free speech should be used to hurt people is outdated concept, just allowing these people to speak is giving them a platform. There are certain things that should not be allowed to be said. I am of sick people using the idea of "free speech" to create conditions for potential violence and harm. We as a nation need to confront the idea of putting a stop to clear misinformation and
hate speech. If we need to amend the Constitution than so be it it is time to move on from the past, need form a more perfect union.
As for Tawian, we have more important things in our nation to address before we get involved in other nations business.

Scooby does this look like anti-Asian hate to you, if so than why do you allow it.
