A very good essay.

The author understands how we have been enslaved by those who control the narrative.

Good rundown on why the PC movement was started and how many words are now being twisted to mean anything but what they actually mean......the PC movement didn’t just start from a seed and grow- the seeds were specifically engineered and sowed widely and nurtured with precise care.

We see here a distinction between what is called the “nominalist” view of language, in which language is merely the product of an agreement between users to signify an object by a particular word, and the “realist” view, in which words are connected to the nature of the thing they signify.

Ayn Rand has presented a method to form objective concepts that eliminates nominalism. Then, objective concepts can be arranged by means of logic to result in objective knowledge. This eliminates the subjectivism of leftard loons.
