Since when is mocking something not an opinion? I would say it is one of the strongest forms of an opinion. Additionally I never said "Websters dictionary defines international as..." I said implies, that is connotation, not denotation. Of course you won't find it in a dictionary, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong. For example, consider these two words:
stubborn - Characterized by perseverance; persistent.
persistent - Refusing to give up or let go; persevering obstinately.
According to the dictionary, stubborn and persistent mean almost exactly the same thing, but do you get happy that someone calls you stubborn? Of course not, because it is a negative word, where as persistent is not. The dictionary tells you the definition of a word, not it's implied meaning.
