The phrase 'Change My Mind' resonated with millions around the globe long before it was trademarked by Steven Crowder. As a common English expression encouraging open dialogue and debate, this phrase should not be confined to the intellectual property rights of one individual. The failure of Mr. Crowder to diligently protect this trademark further undermines his claim.

Recently, 'Change My Mind' was employed in various settings, such as the CNN James Talarico town hall, showcasing its widespread adoption and inherent public utility. It is unjust for a commonly used expression to be the exclusive domain of one individual, especially when it has been adopted by diverse communities and cultures as a means to foster conversation and exchange.

Moreover, trademark law is designed to protect distinctive brands and ideas—not to monopolize widely used phrases. The interests of the public should take precedence, ensuring that common language remains accessible to all. 'Change My Mind' is much more than a brand; it's a vehicle for dialogue, and restricting its use goes against the principles of free and open communication our society cherishes.

We urge the US Patent Office to reconsider the trademark protection granted to Steven Crowder for 'Change My Mind.' This phrase belongs to the public domain and should be free for unrestricted use in our ongoing quest for truth and mutual understanding.

Sign this petition to support the revocation of trademark protection for 'Change My Mind', and uphold the freedom of language and expression for everyone. Let’s unite to ensure our common expressions remain accessible to all.
