“Writers need to learn the definition of decimate.”
Right. People use the word “decimate” when they mean “completely ruined or destroyed.” Decimate is only one-tenth as bad as destroy.
Obliterate is what they probably meant.
Most of these inflametory words are so that you click on the article on social media or YouTube. Then you read it or watch it for 30 seconds to find out it is just CLICK BAIT.
Similar to the ones I briefly considered watching this am on YouTube that said Ted Cruz destroys(or some other word)AOC.
Or Tom Holman destroys AOC. The Tom Holman videos were from Trump’s first term when AOC was a newbie. She has actually gotten more experience in not saying as much stupid crap as she used to. That made for great clips on the internet.
