Aka, the “Liberty Cabbage Fallacy”, When people forcefully change the meaning of a word or concept for political or social reasons, then pretend that new meaning is legit just because it’s popular or approved by institutions.
“Man I love Liberty Cabbage!”
“You mean Sauerkraut?”
“No it’s liberty cabbage bc German bad!”
“Thats just a revisionism fallacy, everyone’s just gonna call it sauerkraut the moment your social opinions lose grace”
