Even the pro-injectionists already knew.this. Merriam-Webster is a POS org as it is.

Publisher Merriam-Webster, which is particularly well-known for its dictionaries, has declared “vaccine” as its word of the year, noting how the medical solution has become a political argument and source of division.
In a publication on Monday, Merriam-Webster said that the number of people looking up the word “vaccine” had increased 1,048% in 2021, compared to 2019 as the publishing group declared it as the word of the year.

The publishing firm said that words can become vehicles for ideological conflict, and that’s exactly what has happened with the word “vaccine.” They claimed that the “promising medical solution” which brought the promise of ending the pandemic that upended everyone’s lives had become “a political argument and source of division.”

“The biggest science story of our time quickly became the biggest debate in our country, and the word at the center of both stories is vaccine,” the Merriam-Webster group wrote.

The American firm also noted that the development of a new type of vaccine, mRNA jabs, prompted the company to change its definition of the word in May. The main description now reads: “a preparation that is administered (as by injection) to stimulate the body’s immune response against a specific infectious agent or disease.” Further text then describes conventional vaccine technology and the mRNA vaccines.

The publisher’s 2020 word of the year was “pandemic,” as the Covid-19 pandemic saw countries around the globe sent into lockdown in an effort to prevent its spread.

The Oxford English Dictionary’s publishers selected “vax” as its word of the year earlier in November.

Pretty much regardless of the specific instance, it seems that when definitions need to be changed to further an agenda, it is a sign the agenda is BS. Just another way of boiling the frog.

Yes. Completely. Similarly, regarding another topic discussed today, if a historical event can not be discussed or investigated then there is something there needing investigation.
