List of how liberals change language to control the debate

DharmaBum50 comments on Aug 24, 2019:

Without getting into rightwingers' own manipulation of language to control the debate (e.g., "pro-life"), included even on this list is a small example of how they're doing it--that is, their use of "Democrat." The adjective is "Democratic," as in "Democratic Party;" however, ranging from conservative loudmouths to the "president," it is almost always "Democrat," as in "Democrat Party," I assume as a term of derision.

Yesterday, I posed a question asking if tRump fit the description of an Anti Christ.

DharmaBum50 comments on Aug 22, 2019:

I'm more inclined to believe that tRump is a reincarnation of Hitler, but if you believe in shit like the Antichrist, the following passage from the United Church of God website seems like he's a good fit for that slot, too--especially when his supporters are such poor examples of the religion they profess to believe in: "End-time prophecies show that religious people—including professing Christians deceived into accepting a counterfeit Christianity—will oppose many of the teachings of Christ. In that real sense, even today, many professing Christians actually have been deceived by a spirit of antichrist. The Bible does not reveal specifically who the Antichrist is, speaking instead of his corrupt teachings. In 2 Thessalonians 2, Paul prophesied of a “man of sin,” a liar and deceiver whose natural abilities Satan enhances by supernatural power in order to confuse people in the end time. In addition, Christ inspired John to write of a “false prophet” to come at the end time." https://www.ucg.org/bible-study-tools/bible-questions-and-answers/who-is-the-antichrist-what-does-the-bible-say-about-the-antichrist

I'm more encumbered by possessions than I used to be (like a house), but they can be sold or given away. I've relocated overseas before (Asia and the Middle East), and I was gone for fifteen years.

1984 was not a happy time for me, but I was poised on the brink of change. I was working a boring low-pay dead-end job in Louisville, KY, with one useless masters degree under my belt, and my fiancee having hit the road three years earlier. During that three years, I remained alone and angry as hell and seriously into punk and very dark alternative music. But anger can also be energizing, and it's pretty much what got me through my second masters that ended up changing my life. A year later, I found myself teaching in Seoul, South Korea, too busy learning to live in another culture to stay focused on the inner darkness.

Trump Cancels Appearance At The NAACP Convention Because He Doesn’t Want To Be Asked Questions | ...

Not a huge surprise. Great response from the NAACP Board Chairman Leon Russell: “It’s extremely unfortunate that during these pressing and urgent times, the President has chosen to turn his back on the nation’s oldest and largest civil rights organization – though I must admit, his refusal to attend our convention is not totally unexpected. “As a nonpartisan civil rights organization, we’ve hosted President Obama, Clinton, Bush Jr., and Reagan, to name a few. This is a historic departure from past presidents’ engagements with the Association. “During his campaign, President Trump asked us ‘what do you have to lose?’ This is the second time President Trump has refused an offer to speak at our annual convention. We get the message loud and clear. The President’s decision today underscores the harsh fact: we have lost – we’ve lost the will of the current Administration to listen to issues facing the Black community."
