It's worse than almost everyone thinks...

Therefore, you, as an individual human, are on
your own if you want to learn how to actually
solve a problem (resolve contradictions). If you
learn how to identify and resolve contradictions,
by simply leaning(sic) how to use words that hold
their meanings, and then ask and answer the
logical questions of any contradiction, you will
indeed be on your own, noticeably, amid a society
of self confused, unquestioning sorts who
believe, rather than question with words that
hold their meanings, the educators, experts,
officials, scientists, news journalists and their
institutional ilk who are using words that do not
hold their meanings and thus training their minds
to be ignorant of how to use words to identify
and resolve contradictions, forever self confused
without solutions to laughably simple problems.

"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather
a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it
to mean - neither more nor less." --Lewis Carroll
