    I have made ZERO blind assertions and provided a definition from CAMBRIDGE.

    Your points aren’t real, if only they were as solid as a brick wall. You have nothing to back you up, I have decades of word usage and published definitions used everywhere English is used.

    That’s because you’re wrong, and that’s okay!

      Again, blandly asserting “I’m right and you’re wrong.” I don’t know if you’re just stubborn, or if you lack the capacity to engage beyond that. Either way, you obviously have nothing to contribute.

        It’s far beyond “I’m right and you’re wrong.”

        It’s “I am right as reflected by the entire history of the word until its present day, as recorded by Cambridge, Oxford, Webster’s, dictionary.com, and every other English dictionary… and you are wrong”.

        You DO contribute something… a chuckle.

        Nothing in any definition about peace, sorry friend.

            It doesn’t mean “peaceful negotiator” etc. in any recorded English literature since the inception of the word… somehow what you call “use” has avoided every English publication ever printed for sixty years.

              And if you engaged with my actual arguments and points instead of blandly asserting “I’m right and you’re wrong,” you’d understand why.

                Oh, I get it! By ‘use’ you mean "no one has ever said this ever’, just like by “tankie” you mean “peaceful negotiator”!

                Now I’m not sure what you mean by arguments and points… obviously by argument you mean agreement, and by point you mean vague nonsensical claim not reflected anywhere in English ever.

                Right?

                By right, I mean you’re wrong.

                    What did you say? I didn’t read it.

                    by ‘not even reading’ you must mean that you are ‘memorizing every syllable.’
