    Well, I would imagine it wouldn't to you, as I mentioned "parallel perspectives" aka on different wave lengths.

    this won't make sense to you either:

    Semantics never do change meaning in actuality because even words matter...

      You're right, that didn't make sense either.

      Semantics is meaning as it exists in language. So what you basically just said is "Meanings never change meaning", which is nonsensical.

      As far as parallel perspectives and different wavelengths, that's just word salad. If you're trying to make a metaphor for something you'll need to rephrase or just be more straightforward.

        Okay so what even is a word salad? I might not want your advice for metaphors... I think I'll use what words express my thoughts best thank you.

        Semantics is a branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning to be more specific, thus it might be "logical" that in the context that I used semantics was to refer to some one using words only in a means to manipulate the sum of the parts in their sentence structure so they "can't" be wrong.

          The composition of literal objects in a literary vacuum holds relevance only when the inherent structure of its intended constituents are bonded by empirical or logical paradigms and structured in a post-normative fashion. Anything that doesn't fit the previous criteria but lies within the bounds of compositional communication then qualifies as establishing relations with the aforementioned metaphor.

          That sentence I just wrote is total bullshit and means nothing even though it tries to sound technical or smart. That's word salad.


          On another note, this is a discussion very rapidly devolving into semantics and [while some people are making valid points] nobody is really talking about the same thing. The guy who made the thread probably didn't really care about having an answer and just wanted to post philosophical bullshit in this board. We answered his question in what is possibly the best way possible and the discussion went off in a tangent. You guys really should define "matter" very carefully because you're already conflating a fuckton of topics together, including human perception and subjectivity, linguistics, epistomology, etc.
