Swearing is Dishonest

December 16th, 2021 by G.

The reason why swearing in this way is bad is because it is a lie.

 

Strong recommend.

Summary: swearing is usually a very emotionally loaded form of lieing.

Whereas cursing someone is angry and aggressive.

 

Me: Swearing can be done to comic effect.  That isn’t a lie.  But it does degrade the linguistic commons.  It takes the power from the swearing.  Ironically, it is people like us who conspicuously avoid those words who give them their remaining power.
