This is how words change, btw. Not by fiat. By creating new realities and sticking labels on them. Or, in this case, by distorting reality and insisting the old words apply to them until people start believing in the Ministry of Truth.

Soon, the meaning of the word 'antisemitism' will be a caricature of its original self, much like 'wokeness'.

Well I do appreciate it when planners avoid shadows that might cover my entire garden or deck or windows all day long every single day of the year.

And also this never happened. We don't speak like that. That's USian academia inventing a term and it's remained just that... academic.

Doubtful. They didn't really make friends at the agency, and there's a ton of firewall they'd need multiple people inside to help them get through unnoticed.

I get your 💕s the right place, but pls consider: USians knew what was coming & enough of you still chose Trump&co TWICE. Millions of Hungarians are resisting too but dictator takeovers are hard to fight & sometimes battles are lost. The US needs more international solidarity right now, not less!!

My hot take is... "is this surprising in a linguistics culture as divorced from the discipline's philological foundations as North American linguistics?". Can't help but see this empoverishment in that perspective. Not that similar things aren't happening in e.g. German language departments.

I'm sorry! I didn't intend to demean the greatness of that historic moment, or the lovely post you crafted to pay homage. Also, skeeting is an art form we are--I hope--all constantly learning, including myself.
That said... 34 is a very plausible typo for 43. It's just where my mind went.

Lucky there aren't thousands of other institutions with nothing to lose, hungry to replace them in the parthenon of academia.
