Redefined? No, we define it properly.

Libtards are butt hurt that conservatives have read and understood Alinsky’s rules, and effectively used them to fight back.

“redefined or tarnished by conservatives.”
LOL...that’s utterly ridiculous. The leftists coin all the new words to support their causes. The right generally adopts them even when it shouldn’t.
Does “That’s so gay” count as a taunt? Is that tarnishing a leftist word?

Conservative verbal jujutsu will always clobber liberal verbal genjutsu.

Lefties go insane when you use their own tactics against them.

Mental midgets often consider things beyond their ability to transparently discern a sort of magic or ju-jitsu.
Our schools rarely teach students how properly to deal with evidence, facts and reasoning, but more often they model conformity to group-think stereotypes.

Consider the evolution of the word for black people. Did conservatives do this?
N****r to colored to negro to black to African American to person of color.
In each case the word change was driven by liberals.

Libtards are butt hurt that conservatives have read and understood Alinsky’s rules, and effectively used them to fight back. Yup exactly
They think that's fighting dirty.
