It's amusing how Democrats use language by re-definition to cope with a concept they despise | Forum

#1

Rather than be truly creative, Democrats play with language by re-definition of current words to cope with concepts they despise:

Abortion: Always was a termination of pregnancy, but needed to be a sufficiently laundered word to replace what it really is; a kill-two-birds-with-one-stone: death penalty.

Sanctuary: as originally intended, this was a consecrated, religious space where people could hide from responsibility. It is now re-defined as a place for illegal aliens to avoid due process.

Due process: The act of crossing a sovereign boundary with legitimate illegitimacy.

Reproductive right: used to launder the first word above, abortion, so that it, too, being a two-bird-for-one-shot approach, can sound caring, when, in fact, there is nothing about "abortion" that is "reproductive."

Planned Parenthood: similar to the above, the alternate of the above distasteful is another coded smudge of language because nothing about abortion is "parental."

HQ: newly dubbed "Head Quarters" by Kamalala where, so she thinks, she gives head a brand new polish so her "constituents" forget her dismal performance in '24, not to mention in '19, when she quit running to run away before she had head to Iowa.

Politics is a fun game. No one ever wins, but at least you get to hate each other.

You should open a thread on semantics or political semantics seeing how you describe the Democratic vocabulary.

Here's a man who doesn't have a red hat hung in the hall.

And we trust that his motivations are not tinged with either misogyny or racism.

We don't speak racist, that's why you don't understand our language.

@Sidewalker

That leads to a one sided conversation. Sometimes you have to accommodate.

@fauxlaw, @Sidewalker

Speaking of which, we can add “racism” to the list of words that the left tries to redefine. And “gender.”

Fascism: Any vaguely authoritarian strand of rightism, despite fascism being a distinct 20th century phenomenon not comparable to repressive, conservative monarchies of old, ungrounded in concrete legal principles and enabled by unprecedented levels of state capacity that marked Europe at the time as well as total consolidation of public and private institutions under the leadership of the fascist party.

Nazi: Anyone with a sufficiently mean strand of politics, including Jewish Israelis (yes, I had this exact argument before).

Are you hoping Russia will end fascism like it ended Nazism.

They make a new definition up every week.

Fascism: ....

I watched a debate where the "progressive" was claiming that some monarchs, some warlords, and the constitution was fascist.

Fascism is growing in America. The evidence can be seen in the rise of the MAGA movement and Trump’s political career.
