    The shame you feel from having spectacularly failed certainly is, yes.

    Explain how someone can read without knowing the basics of grammar and the structure of the language they’re trying to read.

    So now you’re honestly trying to argue that “language” and “linguistics” are synonyms, because you’re INCAPABLE of admitting to having been wrong?

    Perhaps you can explain how people can manage to drive cars without understanding the basics of mechanical engineering? You can drive a car without understanding even what Newtons measure or even how to weld a basic seam or without understanding how to make petrol out of crude oil. HOW? Perhaps because driving a car and building one are two different things?

    Just like using language and studying it? Humans have something called language acquisition. It’s a term you’d definitely hear in any sort of a beginner linguistics class, probably on the first lesson. There’s also a very strong reason why it’s not called “linguistics acquisition”.

    Linguistics is the STUDY OF LANGUAGE. Would you call anyone who’s ever had a few emotions to be a studier of emotions? Because if so, then all humans everywhere practice psychology. I’m sure you know how silly that sounds, don’t you?

    On what basis do you reject the EHRC definition of antisemitism?

    You still don’t understand what “prescriptive” means. Are you just honestly incapable of understanding it, or are you just so intellectually lazy you haven’t read about it for the few minutes it might take for even someone like you to learn it?

      Jesus christ you have some real problems.

      I do but even if I didn’t, their definition includes all uses of the word, due to their being no caveat excluding them.

          It’s all uses of it. I know you want to but you can’t just declare it not included because you feel like it and you just really wanna call Jewish people nazis.

            You’re trying to get out of admitting that you publicly humiliated yourself with your own stupidity by trying to imply I’m an antisemite. Do you know what you’ve not asked a single time during this childish tantrum you’ve been having? My ethnicity or religion.

            Israelis are nazis. “Hard n” or no. Btw, hilarious that you keep using the phrase “hard N”. oh, like… “the N-word”? “Yeah man, the N word with the HARD N. You know… NAZI!”

            I’m pretty sure that’s not the N-word bro.

            ##You said: "If I didn’t understand “the very basis of linguistics, why would you write to me? Come on now. Think before you talk.”

            ##Do you deny saying that, or do you just deny that it’s in any way wrong? Because it’s either or. I guess you deny there’s anything wrong with it. When there is. Very clearly. Almost as if you had some sort of inability to admit when you’re wrong. ;)

            Take your own advice. THINK.

              You still can’t admit that calling Jewish people nazis is wrong huh? As if you spent all that time writing that bullshit out that no one will read, not even me, to attempt to justify being antisemitic is just tragic.

              Its almost as if you have an inability to admit when you’re wrong.

                “I’m all out of ideas on what to do to cover my childish mistakes. I know; I’ll call them an anti-semite!”

                Wow. Did you come up with that yourself? Or was it perhaps taught to you by an institution of some sort? Perhaps the Israeli education system? What’s your nationality? Being Israeli would sure explain why you’re having such a fucking tantrum over Netanyahu being called a nazi.

                You never answered; by your logic, calling these people nazis is antisemitic. That’s insane.

                Remember when you think that “linguistics” meant “language”? Remember when you thought if someone hadn’t studied linguistics, it would mean the same as them not being able to speak? :D Remember that? Why are you ignoring it? Are you ashamed of what you wrote? Because it’s right there in the comment, still. :) Why are you ignoring it? :)

                  Why do you defend antisemitism so strongly? Why can’t you just admit that calling any Jewish person a nazi is wrong?

                  Keep typing that bullshit that no one will read. I’m doing a public service by keeping you away from children and small animals.

                    You’re replying it. I don’t really care if anyone is reading it, but I’m sure people will check your profile at one point or another.

                    This is going to look great when you’re trying to have a serious discussion with someone. Real show of maturity, spamming the same reply in which you say “I don’t read the replies I reply to, I just reply to ‘get the last word’ even when I can’t because I’ve actually said something incredibly stupid but which I can’t accept having said despite it being logged for all to see”

                    Like how “if I didn’t understand linguistics, how could I be speaking” ;:DDD
