More #thesaurus

Propaganda:
Marketing, "influencer", rhetoric

I'm #reading a story where the author swallowed a #thesaurus: a facinorous individual; the fugacity of life; he swayed from inanition; an enemy of the gobemouche folks; he hirpled toward the settlement; sabulous objects gritting his eyelids.

Question the question

When seeking assistance, the questions we ask inform the thinking of the machines or people giving answers. My initial work experience involved helping people research information. How to find books. How to search the internet or databases.

One of the most important skills we taught was to locate salient terms as they influence the answers we get. The more closer to the jargon, the better the research one would find. Better relevant terms, yields results with improved usefulness. Vocabulary worked wonders. Knowing the topic in ways to manipulate the search made research work.

As a result, working in IT, I monitor buzzwords and learn about them. I try to understand them in the current and potential future context. And watch their progress.

AI are replacing search engines, but the same issue remains. We still have to know what to ask to get the right answers.

Additionally, we have to know how to determine the answer validity. For that, we need knowledge to fact check.

Dear Fedi Hive Mind:
Is there a word for a societal pressure, a zeitgeist, of pretending to be happy & successful & without problems such that anything contradicting that is not so much swept under the rug as bulldozed over? & not so much on the parts of individuals & family or friend groups; but seemingly as the operational policy of whole towns & communities?
I *think* there's a word for this; but the more I think about the concept, the more elusive that word seems.
Thank you so much.

really need to brush up on my #vocabulary. going to break out my #thesaurus and start studying so I'm prepared to drop a bunch of words no one has ever seen stringed together before in hopes that I appear more intellectual than my #internet argument opponent and in turn, they will concede. that's how you do it right?
