A screenshot of two connected tweets by Zero HP Lovecraft discussing how women use words as emotional signals (good vs bad) rather than for objective meaning to influence men.

Zero HP Lovecraft @0x49fa98 . May 30, 2021 women only have one rhetorical trick but it is extremely effective on men who think words have "meanings" - to women, all words are manichean. They detect the polarity of the word, and whatever they want you to do is good words and if you don't do it, bad words Zero HP Lovecraft @0x49fa98 if "trad" is good, then it's "trad" to cave to her demands. if "based" is good then "based" men follow her orders or else it's "cringe" or "liberal" or whatever if "inclusivity" or "equity" are good then it's equitable to give in to her demands, and so on. 11:21 AM .
