What they're referring to is a fairly common phenomenon called semantic satiation, though in this case for visually seeing the word rather than audibly hearing the word.
Semantic satiation occurs on the order of minutes. But they make it sound like it's happened over months. I think they're trying to change the subject to Palestine for no reason and deny the genocide there. I think their thesis is that those are false allegations, and they have eroded this person's trust in the term.
No.
You're so fucking hard stuck on the idea that people must either always accept or deny it, and expect denial when there isn't a form of obvious, clear acceptance, that you immediately jump to the worst conclusions. Literally, as in LITERALLY: Word seen often. Word looks fake. Haha, funny thing, oop Ender Game reference.
This is why we fucking lose elections, I swear. Spending too much time playing smarter than thou to just accept the word of someone else. Better to attack and argue because your opinion is the only correct one.
Fucking of course the ACTUAL GOD DAMN GENOCIDE is bad, you sentient dildo. Oversaturation of a word when seen too much is a grossly common thing. By god your arms must be long for you to stretch reasoning that far.
"On Lemmy, genocide word seen a lot. Oh gosh, the oversaturation! Word look fake cause constantly used."
"HE'S DENYING THE GENOCIDE!"
Fucking correction: The only thing further down the list of shit I'm tired of dealing with than the enemy gate are people who make assumptions and twist logic to fit their narrative. Fuck. We deal with this enough from the MAGA idiots. Dealing with you is like having to wake up on a Monday in a society run into the ground by capitalism.
