And you need to pay attention to the real world. There are Stalinist ideologues in the real world who manipulate language in studied ways with the deliberate purpose of sowing unreasoning division and hatred. And the best way to stop them is to wear their hate words as badges of honor, to defy the radiating pieties of language they attempt to exploit, and in so doing to defy them. As openly and bluntly as possible.
