Reflection: on Engagements between Social and Semantic Activists

I'm almost certain than the semantic police are more annoying than the grammar police. (I, a policer of semantics...)

Thinking about it a bit more, by definition, semantic activists are more concerned with linguistic correctness than with social impact, and social activists are more concerned with social impact than with linguistic correctness. So everybody wins. (I, a semantic activist, trying to morally justify correcting the semantics of social activists.)
