this is actually such good timing cuz another post had the exact same comment, the term "pov" is experiencing semantic drift, and it happens all the time! so this is correct use of the term "pov" because it has been redefined via the cultural/societal understanding of it! we dont serve language and its definitions, it serves us and changes to do what we want (we want to convey ideas/concepts)

a good semi-recent example of semantic drift is "nimrod." bugs bunny called elmer fudd nimrod to mock him, viewers didnt know nimrod was a greek god and just assumed it meant "idiot" or something similar, and now today it has become a part of the words definition,

I dont "need" it, but I can see people being wrong about a variety of things and instead of being frustrated about it, I can extract some positive value instead by knowing I am not mistaken as they are.

We understand each other because words have a generally fixed meaning by the way. If an acronym comes to mean something other than what its constituent parts mean, that isnt semantic drift, thats just straight up wrong, no matter how normalized it gets. Plenty of things are normalized that are wrong.

LITERALLY so truee, it LITERALLY kills me when ppl misuse words!!! (i am making a joke about how Literally and Kills are not following the textbook definitions)

so you saw a dumb POV meme and went "what the fuck is he saying?? what the fuck is going on??? POV of what??? i dont get the joke! i dont get whats happening??"

or did you understand the joke? if you got the joke then there is no error, we dont serve language, it serves us, we grant words meaning, and we take it away. using "pov" isnt stopping the joke from being understood so the use of "pov" is fine

I dont think its going to be productive to continue to talk to you because I think youre really invested in being wrong and obtuse about this, and keep expanding the scope of the original point. Have a good day though, genuinely!
