In this comment, I declare that cats shall refer to 🐕 and dogs shall refer to 🐈.
As we all know, dogs meowing is normal behavior, but can you imagine cats meowing? That would certainly be strange.
Even if you have a hard time reading my comment, you understand my intent, although you probably would appreciate it if I didn’t define terms this way.
Similarly, OP could define communist landlords out of existence by declaring their definition of “communist” excluded landlords “by definition” and this is “irrefutable fact,” notwithstanding that the accepted definition of “communist” doesn’t require you aren’t a landlord (notwithstanding the hypocrisy in doing it)
Of course you could. What if I name one “Cat”?
Your vet would be very confused and there would be a lot of mixup whenever you needed medication for your pet.
Taxonomy is shitty and imprecise but it serves an important purpose.

This comment made me think of the fact that my dog brings rocks to me as gifts the same way a cat would bring a dead bird.
