Racism Old Meaning: a systematically constructed belief that a certain race or races has/have a superior claim to humanityto its rights and privilegesas well as a superior compulsion to fulfill its duties. Lesser" races like lower" animal species may be seen as deserving of fewer civil rights due to their diminished capacity yet deserving of paternalistic protection due to their vulnerability.
Racism New Meaning: disagreement with the progressive agenda. Since bestowing special privileges on designated races merely and purely because of their racial identity is a prominent part of this agenda any dissenting view is definitively racist.
Nationalism Old Meaning: avid support of a political unit having established geographical boundaries and promoting significant traditions and customs among its members. Allegiance to the nation partakes of the same sentimental attachment as draws peopleon a smaller scaleto the nuclear family. The nations claim upon ones devotion is viewed as superior to any rational or self-interested affiliation.
Nationalism New Meaning: any form of resistance to open borders and to the indiscriminate mingling of all the earths peoples. Nearly synonymous with racism inasmuch as support of geo-political borders necessarily contradicts the progressive agenda; hence for instance white nationalism". The advocate of dividing a nation into separate states where different races religions etc. are to be sequestered may or may not be a nationalist depending upon whether the proposed division gives protected classes" a better bargain.
Phobia Old Meaning: an irrational terror of objects or situations exceeding any discomfort justified by their real threat. A phobias origin may nestle in infantile experiences or even precede birth as an element of genetic inheritance; e.g. acrophobia (fear of height) agoraphobia (fear of crowds).
Phobia New Meaning: resistance for any reason to any item of the progressive agenda. The faithful of certain religions do not oppose homosexuality because it invites abuse of confused people or because it undermines the nuclear family; they are homophobes" whose opposition has no comprehensible grounding whatever. Likewise for transphobes" Islamophobes" xenophobes etc. The suffix is essentially equivalent to the miso- prefix; a misogynist and a gynophobe would be the same creature: an opponent of the feminist agenda.
Hate Old Meaning: a powerful emotional aversion to a person or persons grounded in scarcely more rational sources than a phobia. The aversion often does not decline after patient reexamination of its causesits passionate component is so strong that the object of hatred cannot be made more palatable even if circumstances of a particular misunderstanding are clarified in that objects favor.
Hate New Meaning: resistance to any element of the progressive agenda. The opponent of the minimum wage is a hater" of working people the opponent of abortion is a hater" of women the opponent of the Second Amendments complete repeal is a hater" of humanity and so forth.
White/Caucasian Old Meaning: belonging to the sub-species of
homo sapiens that evolved in northwest Europe with fairer-than-average skin and occasionally such distinctive traits as blue eyes and blond hair. Like all definitions of race this one is scientifically dubious and has only a practical descriptive utility since all races" are frayed around the borders and also ever tending to relax those borders further. The famous Irish red hair for instance is actually a genetic import from Scandinavia; and indeed red hair and the celebrated Roman aquiline nose" are traits probably introduced from the Neanderthal species.
White/Caucasian New Meaning: anyone opposed to significant items of the progressive agenda. Persons whose epidermis would excuse them from ever being labeled white" in popular usage may nonetheless have white" attitudes or be white on the inside" (viz. Oreo cookie"). By the same token strong Caucasian proponents of progressivism may identify black" or perhaps perform such overt acts of loathing their skin color that they come to enjoy partial or occasional invisibility as whites. Marrying mating with or adopting a person or persons of distinctly darker skin may also be interpreted sometimes as a white dispensation".
Right Old Meaning: a freedom basic to the human beings special condition as a rational creature endowed with free will and a conscience whose ability to operate upon material circumstance acquires nuances of good or evil because such operation may (or should) be deliberately chosen. A creature of this unique sort must not be treated as a slave forced into silence or otherwise denied the scope to conceive express and learn (where that scope does not intrude upon the same liberties in others lives). Beings of freedom are an end in themselves not a means; they have the general
right to grow.
Right New Meaning: any specific license under the categorical freedom to enjoy any and every material benefit available to any member of any society on earthand indeed any such benefit as may be imagined in a progressive but currently non-existent society; e.g. the right to an iPhone the right to high-speed Internet and high-def television the right to assume citizenship instantly upon arriving in another country the right not to have to fear crime or protect oneself against it.
Rape Old Meaning: an act involving a party of superior strength abusing that advantage to force behavior upon an unwilling weaker party; most often referring to a males forcibly dominating a female. Originally not restricted to an explicit sex act but including as well abduction; e.g. the Rape of the Sabine Women.
Rape New Meaning: any act by a member of either sex that makes a member of either sex uncomfortable and is identified by the victim" as having afforded insufficient opportunity for protest; e.g. I felt raped by her scheduling the meeting on my day off."
Gendered Pronoun Old Meaning: a pronoun with distinct forms determined by the antecedents perceived sex. In English only third-person singular pronouns (viz. he she it") have gender.
Gendered Pronoun New Meaning: a form of pronoun used in the antecedents presence which makes that person uncomfortable due to its having assumed his/her sex. Yet since this hypothetical word does not exist in English (you" signals neither gender nor even number) the offense of misuse must be extended even to remarks not made in the persons presencewhich presumably are reported to that person by a third party with complete context and full knowledge of the users intent.
Are you beginning to see a pattern? Hint: try the word lunacy" if it still means anything to you.
