The last to use an antiquated definition while rejecting the currently accepted one is silly.
- Nice: This word used to mean “silly, foolish, simple.” Far from the compliment it is today!
- Silly: Meanwhile, silly went in the opposite direction: in its earliest uses, it referred to things worthy or blessed; from there it came to refer to the weak and vulnerable, and more recently to those who are foolish.
- Awful: Awful things used to be “worthy of awe” for a variety of reasons, which is how we get expressions like “the awful majesty of God.”
And almost always an old conservative, dadgumit.
Like trying to change the literal definition of what a mural is ? I guess progressives think if you say something enough times it will magically make it so .
“Oh look another beautiful BLM MURAL painted on the street outside the White House” . Sometime people are just ignorant .
