* Global heating: A less neutral-sounding term for climate change which better conveys the severity of the crisis.
* Hypocrite: Someone with blatant disregard for the alignment of their words and actions, as opposed to someone who imperfectly adheres to their own principles. Being imperfect makes one human, not a hypocrite.
* Inappropriate: A weasel word used to criticize actions when one lacks valid criticism.
+* The injustice system: A vengeful legal system which uses the incoherent concept of free will to justify keeping people in cruel and inhumane conditions. Punishment is emphasized over rehabilitation, but only the non-rich are punished.
* Pass (away): A euphemism which encourages people to never really come to terms with death.
* Planet-roaster: Any entity that advocates policies which worsen global heating.
* Police officer: A respectable, hardworking person who doesn't act like a thug.

-* The wannabe dictator: Donald Trump.
* Thug: A badge-and-gun-wielding predator who attacks nonviolent protesters, jails peaceful drug users, harasses the poor, and lies in court to defend other thugs.
+* The wannabe dictator: Donald Trump.
* Worth: Reject the idea that a person's worth is measured by their financial assets. Measuring one's "worth" seems to be motivated by an unhealthy obsession with social status, so I avoid this phrase entirely.
