For me it all started on September 9, 2009 when Repulican Representative Joe Wilson shouted “You lie!,” to Barack Obama. It was the beginning of the end for manners and decorum. I don’t like Trump anymore than anybody else in that American majority that voted for Clinton but I absolutely refuse to accept and condone the four letter words thrown around in the US and here in Medium. The use of that four letter word is making it lose the once powerful meaning behind it which made the verb an agressive verb of agression to women. A smaller majority of American have voted for the man and we (even from my position of an Argentine-born and now Canadian citizen living in Vancouver.
