edit … on second thought, im not sure i agree its a “natural change in language” so much as it is a cultural meme that people just thoughtlessly parrot. so, i feel language hasnt changed so much as a term of the moment has. but anyway, im rambling. cheers.
agreed, but individual terms trending or not, dont equate a “change of the language” so much as a change of whats trending in said language. a semantic nitpick, to be sure. :)
when did it become acceptable to just call everything autism? i can tell you im pretty damn sick of it and it hasnt even been that long.
Same thing happened with OCD as well. It’s just natural changes in language. This one will pass as well and there will be a new word in a few years
true all around

Honestly, I think that’s a big part of how language naturally evolves
