SWERF
We have to try to define things neutrally, in terms of what they mean, and not e.g. "misnomer" which is making a judgement. Equinox ◑ 20:37, 15 March 2022 (UTC)


 * it was a neutral explanation of the actual usage of the term. SWERF is an oximoron - a catchphrase to shut down any critical discussion when it comes to the ethics of buying consent. would it have been better if i wrote an usage note instead of clarifying this in the actual definition?

 * Probably! An explanatory usage note like "this is mostly used by anti-abortionists" is okay. A judgemental usage note like "this word is wrong because I believe XYZ" is not appropriate. I do understand the frustration though. Equinox ◑ 00:42, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
