44. Persistent aren't you?

Yes, I have been practicing radical self-reflection for decades.

There is no 'fallacy' in my 'worldview'. I strive to understand, accept, & deal with reality as it actually is. Words and their correct meanings are one such way to accomplish this.

A 'lone wolf' is a terrorist without a group or command structure. Period. It doesn't matter if 'common understandings' are employed. McVeigh? Yes, a lone wolf. DC Snipers? Yes, lone wolves. These two brothers in Boston? Unless new information shows they were actually a part of a cell, then yes, they were lone wolves as well.

Despite any agendas about discrimination, racism, etc., the correct definition allows for a better chance of experiencing reality without bias.

As this does seem to be challenging your worldview, let me give you one more recent example.

Shelter in place.

It covers a wide range of reasons to do so - biological or chemical terrorist attacks, weather events, and other dangers to public safety (oh, like perhaps a fugitive with grenades, guns, and possibly wearing an explosive vest running through a residential neighborhood fleeing the police).

It does not mean 'martial law'. It is not 'involuntary'. No one will be 'arrested'. They will not be 'denied their civil rights'. It is not a 'lock down'. It does not matter if the media says it is. It does not matter if that is a common understanding of the term. It just isn't so. To attempt to make it so reveals the numerous, yes, agendas that individuals had and have on these forums about authority, the police, the government, terrorism, etc.

Do you see where I am coming from now and what point I am making? If not, fine, let's just drop this.
