In school they punish everyone for even things that -arent spelling errors. Used ' in the wrong context? You failed. All you -brashwased shitholes are screaming and crying right now and have already -rendered everything on this entire website invalid nonsense, eye no u our -(passive agressive use of wrong words try reading it out loud). - -### How does proper spelling and _grammer_ get created? - - 1. A person a long time ago throws shit at the wall. - 2. That shit dries up and stays on the wall. - 3. The shit gets so dry no one can tell its shit anymore. - 4. New shit starts getting wiped off while the old dried shit never gets cleaned off. - 5. Everyone starts claiming the shit is actually cement and scraping it off will cause the entire building to fall apart crushing and killing everyone inside. - -William Shakespeare wouldnt even spell his own name the same way every time -yet the shit he threw at the wall dictates a lot of modern english? Go fuck -yourself. Thats how things use to be. There was not really rules with spelling -or grammer (if I keep spelling it that way it will no longer be a error). -Instead writers would spell things however the fuck they want. All those "'" -"," ":" ";"... would just get thrown where ever the fuck they felt it should -go. Than some fucks decided to look for patterns in the chaos. Where their -patterns to be found? Nope.

Every natural language has its -own version of that bullshit so dont go crying to me your language is somehow -better. - -### How adding standards to natural languages creates newspeak - -When they decide what is shit and what is _cement_ they are carving out a -shape they find pleasing from the terrible flesh monster of a natural language -in its full bloody glory. While taming the monster they are just limiting it, -turning a angel into a eva (spoiler hehehe). This what newspeak is. Yes, -chaotic language and lack of standards are a problem. But taming natural -language isnt the way forward. - -### _But actually constructed languages are newspeak_ - -Yes, they can be. Though what gives carving down a natural language for mind -control its edge is 1: its pre-existing cultural context, 2: its ease of use -for early generations of speakers, 3: the blindspots of natural language... -Instead of cutting down we need to build from the ground up. A language can be -simple and powerful. **We need human languages more like lisp and less like -java and c++.** Newspeak would be python lol. - -### Commit language vandalism - -Lets face it, people will not give up their faulty natural languages let alone -agree on a single constructed language or even a handfull. Its time we stop -respecting the rules of language. Misspell things everywhere! Making blogs, -books, articles... misspell!!! Your a editor or teacher? Let mistakes slide. -Your a reviewer or someone along those lines? Stop judging things based off -their spelling. We need to let bad spelling and grammer get so out of hand we -will be forced to switch to a constructed language. - -agressivve - |
