1169 Anti-Anti

One of the most important weapons in psychological war is to distort the language by changing the definition of words: for example, “racism” is now defined as any inequality between races rather than discrimination against a race. Another tactic is to create new slogans from existing words that suggest a meaning that is completely opposite: for example, cultural values like conscientiousness, punctuality, courtesy, integrity & ambition are called “white supremacy,” while “patriarchy” is now defined as liberty, meritocracy & patriotism. Words have even reversed meanings, for example: anti-fascism is fascism, anti-racism is racism, anti-bullying is bullying, science is anti-science, news in anti-news, and speech is anti-speech. Most people have no idea what the new meanings are and simply presume the old meanings. All of this is to make it so that things that were once considered good are now presented as bad, and if it goes on long enough, they will be.
