Don’t use leftist words and definitions
CARM ^ | July 19, 2023 | Matt Slick

Words and their definitions are important because the more accurate you are, the better able you will be to discern truth from error. There are leftist words and definitions that liberals want you to use. This helps them in their cause, restricts your freedom to speak, and influence your thinking.

The following is a video I released on this along with the text of that video.

————-

In the battle for influence and the control of society, words and their meanings are critical. Those on the liberal left believe their morals and thinking are best for everyone. That is why they want you to use their words, whether they be new words or old words redefined according to their ideology. This is because if they can get you to use their words the way they want you to use them, they can influence your speech and guide your thinking. So, the longer you use their terms and definitions, the more you start to think like them. That’s not good. Nevertheless, those on the left say chest-feeder instead of mother, partner instead of husband or wife, equity instead of discrimination, and toxic masculinity instead of hard-working, faithful men. In using terms the way they do, they attack the foundations of our society – and they want you to join them. They want you to use their words with their definitions. But, if you disagree with them, then you’re labeled homophobic, transphobic, a bigot, a racist, intolerant, or whatever else they throw at you. Their goal is to control you…and, ultimately, your children. They’ve made a lot of headway, too. They have infiltrated schools, movies, children’s books, and libraries with their liberal, leftist morality and group-think.

They preach tolerance but are intolerant. They profess unity but cause division. They promote equity, but they discriminate. Don’t fall for it. Don’t use their terms and definitions.

Don’t be a snowflake, a leftist, a socialist, a compromiser, or a weakling. Don’t use the politically-left terminology that restricts your freedom and redirects your thoughts to a leftist agenda. Instead, be strong. Stand firm. Use the right words that have a precise meaning. Stand for truth. That way, you can avoid the indoctrination of the liberal left, keep your common sense and your intellectual freedom.

And don’t say “human trafficking” say SLAVERY. That’s what it is and the Democrats need to be hit with this every chance we get.

I did say spouse the other day to male coworker. It felt funny saying husband to him when referring to his spouse.

Exactly, which is why I berated someone recently for using ‘silencer’ as opposed to ‘suppressor’.

Innumerous other examples.

You can’t express thoughts that you don’t know the words for.

So often conservatives will say “misinformation” or “disinformation” when referring to factual info simply because we hear that terminology so often lately to describe truth vs. leftist propaganda.

One cannot argue with socialists by using the socialist
lexicon...it’s designed that way.

We could all add to the list.

We are supposed to say “pregnant people” or “birthing persons” rather than mothers. It offends the sensibilities of the left, to talk of “pregnant women” , or in any way to suggest, that only women get pregnant, or only women give birth. They are offended to suggest that by definition, it is women who have babies.

And don’t use the plural personal pronoun “they” when referring to a single individual, who is either a he or a she.

Don’t say “Conspiracy Theory”. Say “Truth the leftists want to hide”.

If you do not know what their sex is, they makes sense.

Use the word homosexual, and not “gay”.

Perhaps the use of “her or she” would be better than they, when the sex is unknown.

Don’t say “fossil fuels” or “rust belt” or “global warming.”

Instead, say...?

Seriously, we need alternatives.

My suggestions:

"Fossil fuels" = "hydrocarbons"

"Rust belt" = "(Former / declining) manufacturing centers in the American Midwest"

"Global warming" = "Natural fluctuations in climate"

Would be happy to hear better proposals.

Regards,

Dont say “liberal”. Say leftist. Use the same term for “progressive” too.

Don’t say “Child Attracted Person”. Say “Child Molestor” or “Groomer”.
