Edge Computing at Chick-fil-A

I have a pretty personal beef with the idea that language can simply be contorted to supposedly mean whatever someone feels like it should mean, as heading down that road is basically abandoning meaning and communication altogether, and is wholly incoherent.

You wrote this intending to say, "I'm saying the dictionary definition is silly, not that bigotry should mean what I want it to mean."

Instead, the sentence says, "The dictionary definition is silly, [because it's] not what I want it to mean."

That's fair, I likely misinterpreted it that way.
