RE: Adult Children: How "Slippery" Terms Serve the Authorities and Harm Kids, Teens, and Everybody Else

in #truth6 years ago

There there are a bunch of those terms. Now anyone who is kind of a dick might be called a Nazi (so much so, that when the media is referring to someone who really does support that ideology they have to say "actual Nazi" because the term has been so watered down). They also will classify suicide by gun shot as a "shooting." Technically, that is a "true" statement but the image the word conveys is misleading because when people hear shooting, they picture an act of violence committed by one person against another person. I briefly mentioned "enemy combatant" in relation to teens but that term can be applied to anyone for almost any reason but people picture will a "terrorist" in their minds when they hear it.

Sort:  

they call Nazis right wingers when "socialist" is in their name! What they did is created "white nationalist" which is anyone who is white and loves America but it also a synonym for "white supremacist" which is also used interchangeably with "Nazi". So if you are white and are a non globalist or any sort of patriot you are basically a Nazi. You hit the nail on the head with the terms "gun violence" and "gun deaths" which are all the suicides, accidents and murders and sometimes even legit self defense that involve guns added together. To inflate the number but also to control the debate. Suicide and gang murder and accidents and domestic violence are different problems with different solutions but the only solution to "the problem of gun violence" is more gun control or what they are now calling "Gun safety" or "commonsense gun reforms"! Apparently common sense suggests working the hardest to ban the guns that are the least often used in crimes and suicides.
