Orwell’s Doublespeak: The Language of the Left
QUOTE: George Orwell introduced the language of doublespeak in his dystopian novel “1984” published in 1949. Doublespeak is the language of opposites. Up is down and down is up.
The word doublespeak derives from two Orwellian words “doublethink” and “newspeak.” Doublethink is when a person accepts two mutually contradictory thoughts as correct without being aware or troubled by the glaring contradiction between them. Doublethink statements like “war is peace” “freedom is slavery” “ignorance is strength” are made without discomfort. Newspeak is a method of controlling thought through language - it is the language of fake news. Doublespeak combines doublethink and newspeak in language that deliberately obscures, distorts, disguises, or reverses the meaning of words to manipulate public opinion in a mass social engineering effort.
Orwellian doublespeak is the language of the hard Left leading a coup against Western democracies and their national sovereignty. Barack Obama spoke doublespeak when he promised hope and change. Obama deliberately obscured and disguised his hope for changing American democracy into socialism. Most Americans understood hope and change to mean a better life and the realization of the American dream - a hope to improve our democracy not to destroy it.
The left-wing liberal agenda seeks to destroy the socio-political infrastructure of American democracy and transform it into a dependent socialist state with cradle to grave control by the government. Their strategy of destruction is to target the traditional American institutions of family, religion, and education that promote independence, adulthood, individualism, and ego strength - the qualities that made America great and support American democracy and sovereignty.
The 21st century Leftist progressives speak doublespeak - their “progressive” narrative is entirely regressive.
The regressive infantile impulses and temper tantrums exhibited by left-wing liberals today cannot seriously be called “progressive” except by double-speaking Leftists who believe that going backwards is going forward. REGRESSIVE is the accurate word for the infantile behavior and impulses that inform the “progressive” Left. Safe spaces, Play-Doh and counseling for disappointment, segregated black-only lounges are all regressive demands of an increasingly regressed population.
To understand why the progressives speak doublespeak, their goals, who benefits, and the purpose of relabeling up as down and down as up it is necessary to translate doublespeak into colloquial English …(SNIP)

If a tire iron is being used as a weapon then its a weapon. If impeachment is being used to facilitate a coup, them its a coup. I am sorry if you cannot handle the fact that you follow a party of fascist socialist extremist Democrats who hate free and fair elections, who are pathological liars about Trump, who are baby-killers, socialists, pervert lovers and the rest, but thats your issue to grapple with not mine
There was a nice thread op awhile back on why does conservatives let the left control the language.
There are more definitions. Don’t cherry pick.
That is a nice thread, I missed it.

Let’s add in some more perverions: White Nationalism, is another fake phony term.
Nationalism is a GOOD thing, the opposite of globalism. I am a Nationalist, I put my nation first above others. Globalists create chaos like we see at the border - the no borders gang.
White Supremacy is a thing, but there are o few of them that they are essentially 0% of the population, and the fake News’ media obsession with them is nonsensical.There are not enough of them to fill up my bathroom.
But White Nationalism? This is an Orwellian perversion of language. White Nationalism is the Left’s attempt to make Nationalism a racial thing. It is not. By using this term, if you put America First like Trump does then you get branded a racist. Such is the evil of the Left.
Here’s another perversion which, as a woman, makes me sick: Choice.
Choice and Healthcare and Rights have been used to describe what is actually the murder of an innocent human being. Abortion is the fundamental denial of rights to the human being that is being killed, namely his or her Right to Life.
And healthcare? Healthcare is meant to save life not take it. Calling Abortion "Healthcare"is the ultimate language perversion.
Let us remember this from the OP:
"Politics and the English Language" (1946) is an essay by George Orwell that criticized the “ugly and inaccurate” written English of his time and examines the connection between political orthodoxies and the debasement of language. The essay focuses on political language, which, according to Orwell, “is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind”. Orwell believed that the language used was necessarily vague or meaningless because it was intended to hide the truth rather than express it (source).
Oh, yes indeed. The Left wants to hide what is actually a holocaust beyond the wildest dreams of Hitler or Stalin. They weep for a few kids in detention, and celebrate the slaughter of millions.

Today I learned that there are some who don’t think that white nationalism has anything to do with race.

Which one applies to the current president?
Next: Rights ., a word continually perverted today
Our rights are laid out in the Bill of Rights, and they are for every citizen. There are no LGBTQ rights or Womens’ Rights or Minority Rights. We all have the same rights.
And when that idiot Bernie Sanders says Healthcare is a Right he is totally destroying that word. What he really means is that he thinks government should PAY for healthcare. For him its about money, not rights.
Healthcare is a service that is sold. Saying that Healthcare is a right is not even good grammar.
So I see. Thats too bad because a studied analysis can be made of identical policies between the two parties, Democrats and You-Know-Whos
