If the modern western world needs more of something, it's definitely euphemism
- oldgradstudent 3y agoThe use of "lost the war with cancer" here is also a bit of a euphemism for "died from cancer".
- InitialLastName 3y agoTo be fair, going from "lost his battle with cancer" to something else is at worst breaking even in terms of the western world's euphemism count.
- chiefalchemist 3y agoTrue. But the war-based ones are far too normalized. What's next, The War on Violence? Or how about The War on War? Words create worlds.
