Man Sentenced Over Dispute with Merriam-Webster Dictionary Definitions

A man from Orange County has been sentenced to one year in prison after expressing his disagreement with recent changes made by the Merriam-Webster dictionary to the definitions of words like "girl," "woman," and "female." The case has sparked debate about the use of the justice system to control public opinion and potentially silence dissenting voices. Jeremy Hanson, the man at the center of the case, had sent messages to Merriam-Webster and several other organizations, urging them to respect the English language and not promote what he perceived as politically motivated falsehoods.
