“you’re just making stuff up”
“well of course! That’s how language works. And yours doesn’t have the words for who I am. And if it did, they would be terrible. So *of course* I have to create my own!
Before you knew about electricity, cars, plastics, antibiotics, did you have words for them? Of course not. I am unknown to you, and you’re only bothered because, unlike objects, I am human, and I am naming myself.”
I wish I could say this to some people, but I’ll probably lose my nerve in the moment, lol
