The ability to control Words and the Narrative (why no comments allowed) is controlling beliefs of the sheeple/masses.

Now words mean the opposite-—so that the Leftists-Marxists could make Evil into Good (for the children) and destroy Western Civilization (Whites/Christians whose worldview created the Age of Reason).

Every important “Word” now means the opposite-—starting with Liberty and Right and Justice and Slavery. Like all Orwellian Worlds, Slavery is Freedom and Girls are Boys and Justice is Fascism.

People need to get back to philosophy —First Principles-—and NOT be swayed by Sophists/liars.

They destroyed Western Curricula-—banned it and God (Truth) right from the curricula by the 60s ON PURPOSE-—to get dumb, ignorant sheeple who believe whatever DUMB, IGNORANT thing government FEEDS them.

How? Without Western Classical curricula in the schools, there is no ability to “think”-—only to be programmed and regurgitate the idiocy. Most “teachers” are now dumb as stumps-—just programmed non-thinking “bots” who will program the future adults with their same Marxism sick ideology of irrationality.

The manipulation of Words is what politicians have done for centuries and millennia.

In the book Our Oriental Heritage, the author Will Durant discusses Confucius (page 658) on his lessons of government and the Higher Man.  Here's the excerpt:

    Clarity and honesty of thought and expression were the first lessons of the Master.  “The whole end of speech is to be understood.  When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not, to admit the fact — this is knowledge.”

    Obscurity of thought and insincere inaccuracy of speech seemed to him national calamities. 

    Hence when Tsze-loo told Confucius, “The Prince of Wei has been waiting for you to administer the government: what will you consider the first thing to be done?”

    Confucius answered to the astonishment of prince and pupil, “What is necessary is to rectify names.”
