uncivil?

  1. With the words “Civility in public discourse is important” Chavez expresses that it is sensible to act presentable and according in public affairs, however she does not state that language must be completely to achieve this
  2. Bellicose means favoring or a tendency to start wars. She describes the political metaphors as bellicose and goes on to say that they “have been a staple of politics from the beginning .“ she uses bellicose because it accurately represents political slogans that have been in use and are successful at getting their point across. While it may not be the most civil in its intent, it expresses the party’s point of view.
  3. A) she attempts to pursuade the reader that censoring uncivil words out of literature to remain publicly correct can detract from the overall meaning of the work. B) For example:huck fin replacing the n word with slave.
  4. I agree with Chavez because while they may be uncivil some words accurately express a point and teach a lesson like about slavery in huck fin
