Let us resolve to reclaim our own words.
The cloud of defeat enshrouding America is a spiritual, moral, and political conquest that seeks to control minds, debilitate character, and destroy institutions from within. That conquest starts with the power to control our words. We react, we write, we rail against them — but always using their words. They control the conversation. We have let the enslavers control our words.
The disruptive force throughout American history has been Christianity. It disrupted slavery, segregation, and abortion because Christians rejected words of the oppressors. They called slaves their brothers; they call the pre-born babies. Freedom and sanity in your own life begin by reclaiming your words. Bring intentionality to the words you speak. If words don't serve truth and freedom, don't speak them. Be a loud, proud Freedom-Talker. Pledge to use language that expresses your values and beliefs, to refrain from false words, and to turn away from them without fear.
"I solemnly swear to speak words of truth of my understanding and reject false words, so help me God."
The following 10 phrases are links in the chains around your neck. But they can be pulled off. Some refer to things that don't exist; others are ignorant and dehumanizing linguistic distortions for things that do exist.
1. Our Democracy does not exist. The word "democracy" does not occur in the Constitution. We are a constitutional republic, not a democracy. Philosophical arguments can be made regarding the democratic process in America, but the relentless use of our democracy is a coffin nail for the Constitution.
2. People of Color, Communities of Color do not exist. The terms are actual hate speech designed to create a coalition of resentment among descendants of every continent except Europe.

The word “gay” used to be such a joyous word. (e.g. “Don we now our gay apparel, fa la la la lala lala la”). Now, it’s associated with a sexual orientation.
Maybe someone can educate us as to when that cultural takeover started.

Only time I can think of is an old Cary Grant movie in which he has to wear a woman’s robe and says to a visiting woman who asks why he is wearing it.
He says “All of a sudden I have gone GAY!”
I did a lot of thinking about when America lost its way. What was the moment when things started to go south and it came to me that the moment was the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s. Why? It had such lofty goals? What went wrong? It was in making American Blacks as victims, unable to help themselves and had to be given a hand up—help from the “Government”—They became the first Victim class. People got rich off of this idea and got votes. Then everyone wanted to be a victim and as such got special superior rights (in their mind) Homosexuals, Women, Latinos, the list is long—Trying to “Help” all these groups wrecked everything.
Excellent article. Thank you.
One the author missed: LIBERAL
Referring to the left as liberal is just cover for socialist, commie gimmecrats.
A classic liberal fought for the rights of everyone not just their victim de jour.
“Bringing Up Baby”.
I played that movie for my mother last weekend. We had a big laugh over that line.
I said to her: “ That wouldn’t be allowed today”.
I agree. Something like this is rare these days on the net, IMHO. I had to print it out. Lots of good information all in one place.
‘Our democracy” is often said by politicians on both sides of the aisle. I cringe when I hear that.
