And the left thinks they control the language. It is easy to see them at work.

How you call something shapes the meaning in your mind and manipulates your point of view.

And the left thinks they control the language.

The left does control the language. Here are some examples:

Using the term "sexual orientation" instead of "sexual preference" is woke.

Using “gender” instead of “sex” is woke.

Using “Black” instead of “black” is woke”.

Using “Gender affirming surgery” instead of “genital mutilation surgery” is woke.

Using "Undocumented immigrant" instead of "Illegal immigrant" or "Illegal alien" is woke.

Using the term "equity" (equal outcome) instead of "equality" (equal opportunity) is woke.

Affirmative Action = quotas = discrimination = woke.

Terms are important, which is why I'd like to change the abortion related term "unborn" to "preborn". But I've been trying for two decades with very little success.
