Whether you > want to be pedantic about "racist" being only a specific race is being > wet. There isn't a "countryist" similar term. If you're prejudiced I think I understand better. You have redefined the meaning of racist because you didn't have a single word for "discriminating against a nation". You have also redefined pedantic to mean "people who complain about me changing the meaning of words". Can you supply a list of any other words whose meanings you have changed, and then we can see if there is anything worth arguing about. Additionally it seems you believe that discriminating against an entire nation or country is morally wrong. Does this extend to meaning that discriminating against all other countries except your own is wrong? Steve -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
