"Any movement which attacks the political power base of this corrupt system deserves support."

Blind Faith in pseudo-religious dogma does not attack the power base of any political system.

It strengthens it.

Wilful ignorance and misinformation also strengthen the political system.



McGrath,

Here is an article which satirizes "newspeak" - the rebranding of contentious and controversial issues in order to somehow sanitize them and make them more palatable to those talking about them so they don't have to face up to what they are.

Many people criticize newspeak for being unnecessarily "politically correct"

Ake for example has a big problem with "liberals" who are hung up on using politically correct terminology when what matters isn't the words used to describe the issue, but the people afffected by the issue.

So this satirical article makes Akes point very well.

Unfortunately, he appears to have missed the point rather spectacularly and appears to have turned into a "liberal" according to his own criteria.

It must be very frustrating.
