 Dictionaries/wikipedia changing the meaning of words in order to help the left win arguments.

A thread🧵

@Cernovich gives us our first example: wikipedia redefining "recession" to help Democrats👇
2/
 When Republicans put Amy Coney-Barret on the Supreme court the left chaged the meaning of "court-packing" and dictionary .com went along with it. ImageImage
3/
 Speaking of Amy Coney-Barret...

When Amy Coney-Barret used the term "preference" wbile discussing sexual orientation the left pretended that "preference" was offensive, and Merriam-Webster changed the definition in order to make that lie stick👇 ImageImage
4/
 The transgender people got merriam-webster the change the definition of the word "female" to include "gender identity" (pic 1) when that was nowhere to found as recently as 2019 (pic 2) ImageImage
5/
 Of course changing the meaning of "female" means changing the meaning of "girl"

(H/T @libsoftiktok) ImageImage
6/
 And of course changing the meaning of '"girl" means changing the meaning of "boy" ImageImage
7/
 We also find that vox celebrating the fact that Merriam-Webster changed the definition of racism to include purely "systemic oppression." ImageImageImage
8/
 @chadfelixg points out that google changed the definition of the word bigot ImageImageImage
9/
 The left did not like us pointing out their use of "cultural marxism" (a term found in academic literature to refer to marxist cultural analysis) so they changed the meaning of that word to be an anti-semitic conspiracy theory... and wikipedia went along with it.👇 Image
10/
 The left did not lile non-white voting for Trump...so they changed the definition of "whiteness" to include black, brown, and hispanic people.

The dictionary didn't go along with this...but the washington post sure did. ImageImage
11/
 The game the left is playing is to shift the definitions of words in their favor, and then get dictionaries and wikipedia (the common sources people use to check definitions) to do their dirty work and change the official definition to reflect what the left wants.
12/
 The left can't win on the merits so they have to play fast and loose with the definitions. They have to use linguistic sleight of hand to make it look like they're winning.
13/
 @JackPosobiec points out that wikipedia has redefined the word "definition"

 This is what people mean when they talk about "woke right."

The idea that the entire culture is a system of ideology operating at the subconscious level that brainwashes the masses comes directly from the radical-leftist counterculture of the 60's.

It's also totally wrong🧵 Image
Image
Image

2/
 There is a segment on the right who saw the dominance of the left and have been studying the leftist counterculture literature. They accept the left's view regarding how culture and society work, and have decided to adopt the radical lefts worldview, methods and tactics...
3/
 as well as the leftists intellectual tool of "critical theory" in the service of achieving right-wing political ends.

It's a huge mistake to adopt the left's worldview and it's understanding of culture because that worldview is the reason the left went insane from 2016-2022.

 Healthcare organizations are bringing DEI into everything because accreditation agencies that give the accreditation required to receive medicare funding (effectively gatekeeping medicare funding) are making DEI part of their mission.

Woke Accreditation agencies,

A Thread🧵
2/
 Let begin with medical education.

The Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education accredits organizations offering continuing medical education.

They have decided to make DEI initiatives central to what they do Image
Image
3/
 Their strategic plans says they are "incorporating the issues of diversity, health equity, and inclusion into all aspects of accredited education."

This means medical organizations that do continuing education will be required to have DEI incorporated into their programs. Image

Gen z is going through gender-based asymmetric polarization because the left convinced women everything is political and refusal to adopt leftist politics makes one complicit in oppression

This idea has been floating around universities since the 90's

It's also clearly wrong... Image
The problem with the claim was pointed out in 1993 by John Searle:

That a thing has political consequences does not mean the essence of the thing is political, the purpose of the thing is political or the standards by which the thing is judged ought to be political standards... Image
By way of example: every action humans do (an most thoughts they have) effects their heart-rate.

This does not mean that "everything is cardiovascular," or that the standard by which everything is judged it "what effect does this have on heart-rate."

That would be silly...

AOC was all-in on Identity Politics and intersectionality for a decade, but now all the fruit of identity politics/intersectionality has been picked.

She's moved to economic issues because she left has to make a "material turn," toward economic issues to advance their ideology. Image
Image
Remember, the radical left advances their ideology dialectically: they set up a thesis (identity politics), and antithesis (economic class warfare), then create "synthesis" made from elements of both.

What AOC is trying to do is mix identity politics with class warfare...
The goal here is to try and pick up economic issues (inflation, poverty, wage stagnation, unemployment) and link them into the identity politics "intersectionality" framework.

The way this will work is by connecting their map of class to their identity politics framework...

 This is the most important executive order Trump has signed thus far.

Ending "disparate impact liability" is the first step to destroying the DEI ideology that the left installed in Government.

A thread🧵 Image
Image
2/
 Disparate impact in the United States refers to practices refer to rules that adversely affect one group of people more than another, even if the rules applied are neutral. 

This means disparities in outcome at the group level can be taken as evidence of discrimination...
3/
 This means even if the rules are neutral and applied fairly to everyone, if a group is underrepresented that group can potentially sue for discrimination.

This is the anchor at the core of civil rights law that allows woke activists to engage in legal warfare.

 A Hospital in Missouri gave "Transgender Medicine" to an 8 year-old.

A study of trans identified youth in Missouri included children as young as 8 years-old. Red states have some of the worst offenders for giving experimental cross-sex procedures to kids.

Let's take a look🧵 Image
Image
2/
 According to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City has performed up to 34 sex change procedures on children. Researchers from that hospital say kids as young as 8 years old come in for what they call euphemistically call "gender affirming care" stoptheharm.comImage
Image
Image
3/
 It is very common for hospitals in red, conservative, republican voting states to engage in some of the worst forms of experimental cross-sex procedures on children unless laws are passed that stop them.

Missouri has such laws, but laws in other states have been struck down. Image
