Instead of using violent metaphors to describe good performances, we should consider alternative phrases such as 'inspired,' 'exceeded expectations,' or 'captivated the audience.' These words reflect positive achievements without resorting to aggressive imagery.
Language shapes our perception of success and accomplishments. When we describe a performance as having 'slayed' or 'killed it,' we normalize a culture of aggression instead of celebration. It’s important to cultivate a language that uplifts.
Reevaluating words like 'facts' is crucial. In today's context, 'facts' can be weaponized to enforce narratives. We need to redefine our understanding of facts versus opinions and seek a more nuanced discourse.
As we progress into a new era, it’s essential for the Mid Twenties generation to redefine language to reflect innovation and positivity, moving away from exploitative and aggressive terms.
