It just keeps getting worse and worse. Liberals and pseudo-intellectuals have given us a new Tower of Babel. Imagine an endless speech by Kamala Harris….
All this jargon, all this crapola, builds up to a point where communication becomes impossible and words are just noises. This originates in our colleges and universities and oozes out into the media and politics.
Even silence is better than this.
Well, Marge, you asked for a Blather Bingo card, and I’ll try to provide one. It’d be nicer if I knew how to do this with computer graphics, but I don’t. So you’ll have to print out the blank card and then fill in the spaces with the words provided below.
Row 1: Racist, Cissexism, Affirming, Inclusive, Settled Science
Row 2: Heteronormative, Xenophobia, Patriarchy, Ablist, Women of Color
Row 3: Accepting, Income Inequality, (Free Spot), Gender, Sustainable
Row 4: Homophobia, Bigot, Welcoming, Microaggression, White Privilege
Row 5: Global, Social Justice, Minorities, Misogyny, Toxic Masculinity
There are, of course, other, equally chowder-headed, words and terms you can plug in. I just used the first 24 that sprang to mind. And you don’t have to install them in those particular rows–unless you want to play Self-Esteem Affirming Blather Bingo, in which everyone has exactly the same card and everyone wins.
And instead of X-ing out the words as they come up, you could cover them with little pieces of re-useable, sustainable Play-Doh…
Happy blathering, everybody!
