Words as Propaganda Tools
Words are tools. Poets and writers have always known it. So have politicians, salesmen, propagandists and other undesirables. Words can carry messages beyond the direct and obvious. Another view is at Top politically incorrect words. It gives us The Top Politically Incorrect Words for 2005 were the BBC’s use of the euphemism ‘Misguided Criminals’ for Terrorists after the 7/7 Tube Bombings. Here are some more examples.
Public Schools versus private schools
Public Schools educate the sons of English gentlemen while private schools give unfair advantages to rich children paid for by the ill gotten gains of capitalist swine who grind the faces of the poor into the dirt.
Jungle versus Rain Forest.
Jungles are hot, damp, full of dirt, diseases, insects that bite and unfriendly natives while rain forests are part of a fragile environment full of wonderful people living in harmony with nature and valuable cures which have not been discovered yet and are likely to be destroyed by ruthless capitalists.
Xenophobia versus racism
Men who came back from the last war had never heard of racism. They might have heard of xenophobia but not one in a hundred had heard the word used. Now racism is rammed down our throats by the media day in and day out. It was invented as a tool to use against us by a traitorous media. It means hatred of foreigners and immigrants by Englishmen or by white men but not vice versa. Blacks who hate us are allowed to because they are victims of the Western Guilt which the left love to promote.
Bludgeon versus baton
The police restrained him with their batons when he attacked them with his bludgeon. [ Who is the thug? ]
English versus British
Englishmen born in England, speaking English, caring about England are something of a dying breed. The BBC and other traitors promote the idea that England does not exist, until it comes to football hooligans and anything else that they think will make us ashamed of ourselves. They use "British" to include the rubbish that has washed up on our shores incited by a treasonous ruling class and qualifying for British passports. There is an agenda with the destruction of England as an idea at the top. The same propagandists are using Slavery as part of their propaganda war. They do not tell us that Jews dominated the slave trade. That would give the game away.
Said/claimed/admitted/boasted carry their messages:-
He said that.......... [ he said it, not us ]
He claimed that [ but he is lying ]
He admitted that [ but only because he was forced to ]
He boasted that [ he should be ashamed but he isn't ]
The crowd/mob/victims/refugees [ victims or perpetrators? ]
advanced/charged/fled from/moved toward/stormed/attacked [ victims or perpetrators? ]
the police officers/thin blue line/thugs/storm troopers [ upholders of the law or perpetrators? ]
and were repulsed/threatened/ fired on/dispersed [ victims or perpetrators? ]
Newspaper reports are not usually quite so blatant but have a look at 'Racist' police blocked bridge and forced evacuees back at gunpoint and see the contrast between the message and the facts as claimed [ and notice my presumption of their guilt ].
Newspeak for the Oldest Profession
Is a view from someone else on the same theme. He gives us:-cripple >> handicapped >> disabled >> differently abled
idiot >> imbecile >> retarded >> special needs
deaf >> hard of hearing
sodomite >> homosexual >> gay
also
squatter camps >> informal housing
illegal immigrants >> undocumented workers
illegal immigration >> informal migration
crime >> informal employment
terrorism >> informal violence
QUOTE
Even now, when the opening of the Soviet archives has revealed that matters were even worse than Conquest could prove, one strand of “liberalism” continues inexcusably to treat the Cold War as a battle not between free societies and totalitarian dictatorship, but between “ideologies” that, it is implied or even stated, should be seen as morally equivalent.
UNQUOTE
Ideologies or very different political systems. It is fair to say that America under Bush is becoming as bad as Russia.
