To Have Clarity We First Need Definition! Part II

By Rich Kozlovich 

One of the problems with the left is their penchant for redefining words to fit the narrative of the moment.  Words mean things but are constantly being warped and twisted by radicals to obfuscate reality.  

We absolutely must grasp this:  Everything we are told, everything we read in the newspapers or see on the news is filled with lies. Mostly lies of omission, and on occasion, more so recently, outright lies, but the end result humanity is being duped by prominent people, i.e., leaders in every area of influence in every institution of the world.

We really do need to get that.

In John Hawkins article, 10 Concepts Liberals Talk About Incessantly But Don't Understand, he starts out with two quotes. One from Ronald Reagan, and the other by the character Inigo Montoya portrayed by in The Princess Bride: 

1. "It isn’t so much that liberals are ignorant. It’s just that they know so many things that aren’t so."
2.  “You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means”.

Which is a great lead in to the 10 clarifications about terms in his article that are being redefined so often that they are becoming somewhat indefinable. He covers the difference between how conservatives and liberals define the following terms:  Open Mindedness, Racism, Fairness, Greed, Hate, Investment, Charity, Patriotism, Tolerance and Diversity. 

Well, here's my take on all that.  

They want open mindedness to the point our brains fall out of our heads.  Then we have racism, hate, tolerance and diversity.  First off, diversity without accomplishment is incompetence without consequences, and as for the rest, that's a one way street, irrespective of the facts or reality.  Racism, hate and intolerance is just fine as long as it's blacks against whites or even Asians, and since Obama and his gang of race baiters have done so much to foul race relations, race relations are now a disaster.

Fairness, now that's a real winner.  Who wrote "The Book of Fair"?  No one!  There is no accepted defining concept.  As a result, fairness can be twisted and warped unendingly.   Who decides what's fair?  And if "fair" becomes codified, and administered by government bureaucrats, which is the real  goal of the left: I can guarantee you very real unfairness will be rampant and destructive.  As for patriotism, well, Lenin was a Russian patriot, so that can mean anything these days.  

So, why has this become so complicated? That's the easy part! 

As long as we are incapable of defining words and terms properly we can be led in directions that we may not have been willing to go otherwise. This has been a tactic on the left since the French Revolution, refined and promoted by Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Mao.  But they never  perfected or practiced as well as has the mainstream media, green activists, statists and leftists who are insatiable in their drive for power and money.  They unendingly work  to keep society off balance in order to destroy us with our own values.
