There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!

How does the word β€œcriminal” imply that crime is their identity?

Everyone had told a lie at one time or other in their life. Are you a liar or a person who has told lies? There is your answer.

According to Wiktionary, a liar is a person who frequently lies, whereas a criminal is someone who is guilty of a crime (possibly just a single one). So this is a false equivalence.

It doesn't unless they identify as a criminal and change their pronouns.
