Good article on how liberals manipulate the language. They tend to tie it in knots and distort the message so that it sounds pleasing to the masses. If they really said what they meant, no one would buy into any of their bullshit.
Because they convey meaning, words can be powerful tools. Hence, they should be used with care. Like most tools, words can be dangerous if used improperly. In fact, they can become weapons. Depending on the intentions of the speaker, words can either inform and communicate or deceive and manipulate. For two decades, liberal wordsmiths have been distorting the English language to deceive and manipulate Americans. So why do liberals find it necessary to distort the English language to deceive and manipulate? The answer is simple: because many liberal beliefs, practices, and policies are reprehensible to the American public. If these beliefs, practices, and policies were called what they really are, Americans would rise up and reject them.
One of the best examples of how liberals distort the English language to deceive can be found in what they call themselves: “progressives.” If the American left is progressive, then what is progress? Is bankrupting the American economy progress? Is using government entitlements to garner political support progress? Is encouraging an entitlement mentality progress? Is promoting a victim mentality progress? Is perpetuating racial strife progress? Is transforming America’s public schools and colleges into leftist indoctrination centers progress? If these things are considered progress, then the left is certainly progressive. But if these are seen for what they really are, the left should stop calling itself progressive and start calling itself destructive.
