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. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were.

In reality nukes in space is a very bad idea, but what are we going to stop Russia, put sanctions on Russia? Give money to Ukraine. One could even claim that a cornered animal is very dangerous so let's just keep pushing me and see what they will do next. I think we should just go to war the sooner the better.
(1) I thought we already have lots of nuclear weapons in space? There is treaty? Why is this a big deal.
(2) Nukes are not 80 year tech, come on how big of threat they they can be after all this time. We need to worry about gain of function
AI killing everyone. Saying nuclear weapons are dangerous is like saying cannonballs are dangerous.
(3) I grew up after the cold war, the idea of nukes flying around killing everyone just does not resonate with many people. I just do not see this as very scary not like fake news, capitalism or not taking a vaccine.

Alexie Navalny is dead, it is all over the news. Putin did this, are you starting to get this. Russia is the biggest threat to the free world right now. Massive Ukraine aid will help but we
need to get real and do what has to be done and get rid of Putin. We better do this before Nov
because we all know Russia is going to interfere and is going to taint the election one way or another.
