Now, how can any of these statements, or any comdinations thereof, equal trying to "say that people couldn't be victim to the government unless they revolted."
Here you go:
The people are not captives, or victims, of their government. Period. The day they are, they will know it, just as the Russian under Stalin knew it, and one day they will fight back. "
Yes words have meaning, and since you are so familiar with that you would know that 'heterosexual' is not only a noun, but also an adjective."
Yes, but it is inaccurate...
What part of "adjective" don't you understand? You see, I just learned about adjectives in my public school seventh grade class (my catholic school friend says I should've learned this a while ago) and even I know that adjectives are used to describe other words.
When used in this way, a word provides the most detailed possible description of another word.
"Victims are generally made up of those who cannot, or simply do not, stand up for themselves"
Sorry, you can try to backtrack all you want... this is your definition not mine. You insist on bringing fault into the equation, rather than accept the definition (even that which you provided).
Your response was pompous because of your tone and assertion that the definition produced from one online dictionary is so vastly superior than another. The misinterpretation deals with your misuse of the definition you provide yourself. Since you can't even agree with yourself on the definition of the term, I guess I shouldn't have expected to see a dictionary clarify anything.
You've contradicted your main point, in a discussion you are uninterested in. Need I say more? Go away.
