What would happen if conservatives started to change the words we use for political ends?
Throughout history, revolutionaries of all stripes have warped the meaning of words to subvert reality.
And now here we go again, with another effort
(Excerpt) Read more at nationalreview.com ...
“What if a right-wing movement wished to redefine “sanctuary cites” as “subversive cities”? “
Great idea! Let’s immediately start using this! See if we can get Trump to do it.
BKMK for later.
Can a statement found to be true nevertheless be a hate crime? Yes, if you are talking about Islam.
Like the word “LIBERAL”. “Classical liberalism” is the term used to designate the ideology advocating private property, an unhampered market economy, the rule of law, constitutional guarantees of freedom of religion and of the press, and international peace based on free trade.
“Pro-Choice”
That approach will keep everyone looking away from where the real conflict is—the wealthy billionaires against everyone else.
That vision of reality is the one the far left uses.
If you buy into it, then Donald Trump is against “everyone else” except for fellow billionaires.
Wealthy people are not all for themselves and against others.
George Washington was one of the wealthiest men in the United States.
They don’t really use the word liberal all that much any more because they have strayed so far from its roots. Now it’s “progressive”.
“Both right-wing Nazi Germany and the left-wing Soviet Union banned old words and created new words that furthered political agendas and warped reality.”
I had to stop reading here.
Why are Nazis branded “right-wing” EVER?
Nazi is short for National Socialist! Do you hear the word SOCIALIST in there? I have been labeled RW often...I have never supported anything Nazi. There was a great article on line a few years ago that went on for pages explaining how solidly Socialist Hitler was. I hope someone here kept it because it has vanished from the link I had saved.
There, now maybe I can finish reading this.
Great editorial by Hanson, one of my favorite writers.
my words that use language to make a point are Ameriphobe and Ameriphobic. The progressives as a whole are Ameriphobic
I shun the word racist and prefer to deflect it and declare criticism of minorities to be allowable as a culturist. There is no black community but rather a host of black subcultures. It ‘s ok to be critical of the black urban subculture that disdains education and burns cities. It’s ok to be critical of the black political subculture. It’s ok to heap phrase on the black professional subculture that might actually not be a subculture at all but mainstream society.
If we keep using the left's terms, we'll always be on the defense.
Let's turn the tables on them and use the English language as it was meant to be used - to clarify thought, not muddy it.
When they complain, we'll just explain that we're "fighting pollution."
The Truth pisses off the left. They can’t handle it. I agree “sanctuary city” sounds like its saving someone and people assume that they saved are good people which we know is not always the case. Why not also point out that the reason those mayors want their cities to be sanctuary cities is not to save anyone but to get their greedy little hands on the federal funds that come with it. Point the flashlight at the cockroaches and expose them for what they really are. Many are probably Hispanics themselves and probably de facto La Razan members.
Instead of “undocumented worker” (interesting since such a high percentage are unemployed) I offer “criminal alien” or “criminal invader” or “criminal foreigner” or “criminal foreign welfare thief” or even “criminal job thief”.
This phenomenon is properly referred to as "the long march through the institutions" and it is not aimed at short-term political gain. It is aimed at "ending history".
I like his suggestions. Let’s do it! Take back the language from the Left! And don’t forget all the ridiculous “gender” stuff.
Then you can put their words in “quotation” marks and parentheses and use our words straight up.
The Nazi Party was a right wing organization???????. I’m Right wing..I would take someone apart if Someone called ME a Nazi!
This is all a part of the media’s game of deception and lies. Every freeper would benefit by reading this article.
