What is the one word that you hate the most?

For me, it is the word "we." It is a presumptive word that seeks to pull others into a specific belief or agenda. It is a word that reeks of either low-intelligence, or malicious intent. It is literal "collective-speak."

"We the people ... " get a pass?

I still don't like it - especially once you've read Spooner's "No Treason VI: The Constitution of No Authority "

When I say we I'm talking about myself, nobody is an Individual

I have major beef with the word “they”. So many people will blather on about perceived problems and then add “they need to do this” or “they should do that”. Always referencing this omnipotent central authority that if “they” just made the right decree the problem would just go away. Never understand an arbitrary or corrupt decree is the root issues in the first place. Pisses me off to no end.

Yes, that's my second most hated word!

Fixed it for you: "We do what they tell us to do."

It's the shortest form to say everything about what is not yet in order in this world of human ingenuity.

We don't take kindly to those who don't take kindly to "we" around here
