“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.

Classic essay on the same subject by the author of famous novel, 1984.
The latest word is “nationalist” with heavy overtones of racism and fascism. I care about my country, therefore I am a nationalist.
Another one I can’t stand is “redistribution”, which is used with the wealth. There is no such thing as re-distribution, because there is no distribution to begin with.
