Sigh. The burning stupid, it’s like mildew, or ants, or a bad smell.
When we “include everyone” in the sense of calling men “women” if they tell us to will overcome poverty? Really? How? What’s the mechanism? And does this eccentric claim apply to all people who call themselves something they’re not? How about rich people, and bosses, and CEOs, and stockbrokers, and market manipulators, and advertisers, and politicians who spurn immigrants and labor unions? When we “include” them will poverty be overcome? Please explain how it works so that we can get busy.

Words are magic. Bad words kill people; Good words save the world. Except they’re the ones who get to decide which is which.
Welllll… I mean, if poor people don’t want to be poor, they’ll tell us to call them rich and easy peasy, Bob’s your uncle *wipes hands* poverty gone bye-bye!
…or something?
Of course, if you include the rich in the group known as poor, the average net worth automatically goes up. Poverty solved!
For you, for me, for him, for her, for they – how does them not notice that them is writing gibberish?
