Deaf Power



Deaf Power (a probable cause). More positive than negative.
Nowadays we're more language based - ASL or Bilingual.

Hmm, the deconstruction of "power" itself as a word to be questionable effective or not.

"Power" word itself often associate with "authoritarian" or "dominance".

Why can't we simply update ourselves like

"Deaf Leverage"
"Deaf Prestige"
"Deaf Augment"
"Deaf Upsurge"
'Deaf Buregon"

The whole world is really fed up with the concept of "power" after the eight years of Bushism and Putinism, instead of working together as a part of community than declaring ourselves as a superiority over other human subgroups.

We need to find some word to enrich our own existence as a cultural and linguistic minority than being a cultural & linguistic arrogance.

"Deaf Power" is very outdated. We are no longer in the 60s and 70s!
