Manipulation goes on all the time. Advertising is perhaps the most blatant example.
A brief semantic history of abortion is also illustrative. At one time, those against abortion were ‘anti-abortion.’ But that sounded negative, so they went with ‘pro-life.’ The pro-aborts didn’t like the negative aspect to abortion, so they went to ‘pro-choice.’ Nothing changed but the perceptual after-taste.
I’ll never forget Bill Clinton’s remark when he left office: “They have the microphone now.”
Words mean things!
Key words: top and mocked. Top is good, mocked is bad.
BTW, why is mocked bad?
same sex = homosexual
faith based = religious
gay = homosexual
transgendered = mutilated human
undocumented = illegal
fetus = baby
ridiculous
BABEL! Perfectly defined, perfectly described. See the power, as in Acts chapter 2, when all are of one accord! Babel MUST be undone for the establishment of the kingdom of antichrist ... all the world must come together in one accord. See Zephaniah 3:9 & 13, Isaiah 11:9 & 15.
Another example: The left has finally realized that “Gun Control” is a losing issue for them. More and more, they are using the term “Gun Safety” in it’s place. “Control” is one thing, but who could be opposed to “Safety?” Same agenda, new name.
For the few, another clue. :-)
