  • I’m thinking that your question is generalized but is there any example which I really missed?

    Semantically, “reverse reappropriation” would just be called “appropriation “. What are double negations?

    Is reverse sub-appropriation acceptable for a specific answer?

    In the rest of the answers, I am specifically talking about “claiming a word” not the general definition of the word “appropriation”.

    Appropriation is the act of taking something for yourself. Reappropriation the act of reclaiming an appropriation. In both cases the group shifts the word to himself.

    When “social justice warriors” are included on social media and not in the dictionary, what is the evolution of “social justice warriors?” and all social media sources: etc. Why “appropriation” does not apply here, in my opinion!

    What makes a definition useful is a search of the causes of semantic evolution, rather than the act of semantically evolving a word (which happens naturally and is not always a conscious decision).
    And that is much harder to pin down and find an answer for. Why does words evolve? “, a massive topic to discuss, that cannot really be contained in a single word or description. ”

    Why do words have an implicit negative connotation?

    What is that company’s slogan?

    What is “social justice warrior” exactly?

    Let’s end with someone offering stereotype as the correct answer to the question.


    What is Social

    Justice Warrior? What is it about?

    Who supports social justice? Who is trying to enact social justice?
    Let’s go backwards, what is wrong with social justice?


    Why are there enough people who call themselves social justice warriors in the West? The stereotype is formed where social justice warriors are expected to behave as a nonviolent individual.

    If I had to describe the cause of this semantic evolution, would I call it stereotyping. Why does the human brain evolve? “The evolved meaning accounts for the stereotype that has been commonly accepted, at the very least up to a point of being commonly acknowledged (even if not everyone thinks it is factually correct).


    Is

    it true that stereotypes are an integral part of psychology? These thoughts may or may not accurately reflect reality.

    Wikipedia link? The meaning of stereotype based social psychology.

    Since language evolution is heavily influenced (if not fully driven) by social interaction, the act of stereotyping can have a massive impact for evolution of a language to account for “new” stereotypes.


    This is normal human behavior. Humans are not perfect, so why logically perfect?

    How can I flip a coin 5 times? Is it true that 1/32 people get 5 heads in one row, and another 1/32 people get 5 tails in another row?
    How do I ask everyone on Facebook what they think about The Coin? I don’t think it is true (when calculating the value of a fair coin) that none of the test subjects are aware of the outcome of other people’s coin flips. Their opinions are based on experience only.

    If you do an experiment in the US, on a population of 300 million – 200 million people (more than 20-million) you will end up with 20 million people who all erroneously believe this coin to be a fake coin. And that is this coin you believe in.

    Is the conclusion of your research logically correct? Of course not. But it is the essence of human behavior: recognizing patterns based on outcomes.

    As much as we would like to paint them as wilfully evil, many people who partake in stereotyping (mostnotably racists and sexists) do so not because they are intentionally telling lies, but because their experience is vastly different from the statistical average, leading to their opinion being similarly different from the average.

    That is not an excuse for racism, sexism, or any other form of sterotyping. What makes outliers statistically unlikely to exist but will allow us to have our own opinions?

  • Asked on March 1, 2021 in Other.

    Is it true that your example is using two separate 2D images to convey 3D information to the reader?

    What reminds me of European projection : Instinctively, I

    would have called it “a case of European projection”.

    According to Wikipedia, an oblique projection is a

    simple type

    of graphical projection used in producing pictorial, two-dimensional images of three-dimensional objects. It project an image by intersecting parallel

    • rays (projectors) from the three-dimensional source object with the
    • drawing surface (projection plan).

    In oblique projection, parallel lines of the source object produce parallel lines in the projected image. This is a phenomena that could not be described in this work.

    Pedantically, the lines are not parallel to the lines in your example image. Please note that the page I linked is refers to Engineering drawings, which are often used as blueprints and need to be pedantically precise.
    Your example image is precise on the left (it notes dimensions etc.), but the right image seems to be a visualization, not a blueprint. Also, there is less need for parallel lines in vector images. Right image is not meant for precision yet. Therefore, there is no need for Parallel lines.

    If the image you linked is not representative of the whole tunnel, but rather a specific segment of it, the same Wikipedia page lists a second option:

    Section views

    Projected views (either Auxiliary or Multiview) which show a cross section of the source object along the specified cut plane. In most cases, these views are used in building structures to give more detail than are using regular projections or hidden lines. For example, internal features can be shown with more detail.


    I know some people will refer to the image you linked as an oblique projection, but if you are just looking at the image exactly that image would be an oblique view.

    What is most important for you is the meaning of words used in many literature.

    • “Section view” reveals that it is a “slice” from a more complete part of The Explanation. This is where the “Slice” points are.
    • What exactly does “oblique” mean?

    What is the 2D map which shows the characteristics of 3D train tunnels?

    What does it take to have oblique projection, and what are the results of it?
