Merriam-Webster’s Word of 2017 is “Feminism,” What Will 2018's Be?

Merriam-Webster has declared 2017’s word to be “feminism” due to its increased usage over the past year, and all of the events the word was tied to. Indeed, the word has circulated through the English lexicon very heavily over the past few years, but it’s a word that exists oddly in our minds. To some, it’s the great savior of our times. To many, it’s a villain that takes after the worst qualities of some of the world’s most notorious dictators.
