I really dislike what I now call the American We.
"We made it!" "We failed!" written by somebody who doesn't have the slightest connection to the projects they're talking about. e.g. this piece doesn't even have an author but I highly doubt he has done anything more than using chatgpt.com a couple times.
Maybe this could be the Neumann's law of headlines: if it starts with We, it's bullshit.
- alehlopeh 2y agoI’ve been saying this for ages. People use “we” way too freely.
- lgas 2y agoWe're sorry, we'll try to do better.
- echoangle 2y agoIsn’t the „we“ supposed to mean „humanity“?
- jibal 2y ago"I highly doubt he has done anything more than using chatgpt.com a couple times." Based on what, other than BAD (being a you-know-what)? And intelligent people understand that "we" to refer to humans generally.
