Linguistic purism, or protectionism if you want to sound better, is cool and good as a standalone thing but its intrinsically linked to nationalism and therefore fascism.
Making your own versions of English loanwords is hard, they have to be exceptionally good or people won't use them.
A committee, like in the news story, is not enough. You need a whole institution for this.
The linguistic colonization is a byproduct and symptom of the actual problem, a highly dominant anglo culture due to a highly dominant anglo financialized economy and military empire. End the empire and economic domination, you will end the cultural engine that outproduces the rest of the world, and therefore will end linguistic colonization due to oppressive overproduction of culture
Basically we need to put an end to the superstructure of “content” and “media” being monopolized by the anglos
this is true, i was overly exaggerating, not all nationalism is fascist in nature, but most? fascist movements are nationalists, or profess to be at least.
