People don't always have the same meanings for words. Arguing about definitions is semantic bullshit.

That was a bad post and you should feel bad.
Words matter. If we can't agree on the definition of words, communication becomes impossible.
This is not true, we can have plentiful and meaningful meta discussion. If I strain to replace your "capitalism" with "free market," I can avoid earing my hair out every time I get on here until I can convince you to acknowledge the connotations and unavoidable trappings of that word.
