How is looking up a word in the dictionary mental gymnastics?

Changing the definition of a word (or making one up) then applying it to an argument is mental gymnastics. Let's see what would happen if I did this. After we changed the definition of person. Me: We can make certain ppl slaves because they aren't persons. We have science on our side because the word person excludes ppl with green eyes. Of course that is absurd , but that is your basis that you are using as an argument. This is nothing short of Orwellian and for ppl like yourself not to understand this makes you insane.

The dictionary is Orwellian? Do you believe the dictionary is oppressing you?
