Dear Friends,
It seems to me, since most people think in words, if a faction can seize control of the language, they’ve seized most people’s minds. Which is the strategy the left has used for decades. With their political correctness word police. Because, if you control someone’s words you control their thought, and so the word police are actually thought police, pretending to be miss manners. Why would thought need to be controlled? To make absurdity more palatable. If whole ideas are banned because of political correctness, then those ideas will be of little use, in the face of the elite’s crazy talk. Vilifying men and maleness, while lionizing the all consuming mother archetype, it’s supposed to make people love their smothering tyranny and hate freedom. Subtle mind control through word control… very manipulative.
Totalitarians are folks who feel the need to control every aspect of the lives of others… even our very thoughts. Being uncomfortable with human agency they seek to take it away by any means. I suspect the foundation of this attitude is fear. Terror of other people. So those others must be controlled and forced to obey. Rendering us harmless. Moreover, I think the fear of others is rooted deeply in self reflection. The totalitarians know how immoral, conniving and ruthless they themselves are, so project that evil on humanity. No wonder they’re terrified of other people. They think the rest of us are as heartless as they are. Therefore we must be controlled to the Nth degree. With political correctness. Because our agency is so threatening to the pathological.
Language is controlled in a free society by pretending to be courtesy. Strangely enough, by the most discourteous people to ever live. People who openly avow their hatred of the patriarchy, capitalism and Christian values, demand we use their language else we’re being rude. Our free thoughts and words are very offensive to the totalitarians. Since free words and the result of free thought expose lies like a searchlight. Controlled speech however is utterly impotent when it comes to explaining reality. Because the words are denied to us. So the absurdity the totalitarian drives down our throats can’t be countered with reason and logic. Making us subject to thought control. Allowing the totalitarian to be more comfortable since our agency has been removed by political correctness.
The totalitarian however is loathe to allow his or her words to be controlled. They fly into a rage at the thought. The absolute presumption of us, to think we should be able to limit their rhetoric, is simply unacceptable. Next time someone tells you not to use a word… later, tell them not to use a word, and see how that goes over. Proving the totalitarian a hypocrite. Why don’t they accept correction for the purposes of courtesy while demanding we maintain respectful voices at all times? Because policing language is a means to control, not to courtesy. An unbiased look at the word police and their actions becomes a vista. A scene of thought control by manipulation and chastisement. Because no one wants to be called a bad person. So by political correctness, they control our words, thoughts and actions.
Inclusivity is mere propaganda. Since those who coined the term, and use it, are the most exclusive people to ever live. Defining themselves by what they hate instead of what they love. While a conservative may define himself by his love of God, freedom, and America, a progressive totalitarian might define themselves, by their hatred of the patriarchy, capitalism and Christianity. The totalitarians fear the agency of the rest of mankind. So seek to limit it. By controlling our language and thus our thoughts. Their hypocrisy illustrates the fact their demand for courtesy is simply an appeal to authority. Their authority. Which allows totalitarians to inculcate absurdity without challenge. Making political correctness a tool of totalitarians. A tool we should dull at every opportunity.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
