Gender refers to language.
Humans have a sex, male or female.
Do not use gender when you mean sex.
And there are only two.

Yes, indeed. No doubt about it.
This author, however, knows a thing or two about it as well given some of his other articles that have been posted here.

well, vaccine officially no longer means vaccine but merely protection, which in itself is a lie...

First they use language to demonize you.
Then they round you up in concentration camps.
Then they shoot you.
This is a short summary of the history of the human race.

“Cultural Revolution!”
It was only used to murder 80,000,000 Chinese citizens.
It has plenty of mileage left.

Once again, communists demonstrate mental ability on the level of third graders.
Their existential strategy: just do the opposite.

“Liberation Culture”. Liberated from who? Here’s who…
Psalm 2: 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. 5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

Words, language, linguistic speech, are what defines us as human beings, they’re what makes us separate and distinct from the rest of the animal world. Only human beings have the ability to communicate linguistically and through the written word. Words give us the ability to exchange concepts, paint images and pictures in each other minds, to invoke emotions, they make us feel and understand. Words are the most powerful force in the known universe, it is no wonder the rise of the left has coincided with masterful manipulation of language.

Shouldn't that be People's Liberation Culture?
This tactic provides a right-wing ideological cover for maintaining racist oppression, imperialism and war, class exploitation, and heteronormative patriarchy.
Heck, I think Che and Fidel might get canceled on that point.
To: Red Badger
Liberation Culture? So Obama was attending a Marxist Communist church with Jeremiah Wright and his Black Liberation Theology.
Pretty much a total verification that he’s a card carrying Communist.

This is Big Brother speaking:
newspeak is now the official language of New America, because it has been devised by the Ministry of Truth to meet the ideological needs of NAMSOC, or New America socialism. So, be good little slaves and obey the thought police, because if you commit a thoughtcrime by opposing groupthink, you will be punished.
I am watching you!

Just when we think we’re getting the upper hand on denouncing one concept, the left rebrands it and starts the process up again. It’s all a charade, yet conservatives continue to let the left determine the rules of engagement through language manipulation.We DO NOT ALLOW THE LEFT TO DETERMINE THE RULES.
The left knows the only people they have to convince are members of the press - and of that group - ONLY the people who write style books.
(Our side thinks we need to convince 100 million citizens.)

But he who controls the language controls the direction of the conversation, which is why the right is always stuck chasing after it.
This is why you cannot win an argument with a socialist
if you engage using socialist lexicon.
