Nineteen Eighty-Four, the novel of George Orwell - Appendix: The principles of Newspeak

As we have already seen in the case of the word free, words which had once borne a heretical meaning were sometimes retained for the sake of convenience, but only with the undesirable meanings purged out of them. Countless other words such as honour, justice, morality, internationalism, democracy, science, and religion had simply ceased to exist. A few blanket words covered them, and, in covering them, abolished them. All words grouping themselves round the concepts of liberty and equality, for instance, were contained in the single word crimethink, while all words grouping themselves round the concepts of objectivity and rationalism were contained in the single word oldthink.

A Declaration of Independence by a Princeton Professor

Independence of thought is considered the hallmark of academia, but everyone deserves it.

“Constitute a committee composed entirely of faculty that would oversee the investigation and discipline of racist behaviors, incidents, research, and publication on the part of faculty… Guidelines on what counts as racist behavior, incidents, research, and publication will be authored by a faculty committee for incorporation into the [usual] set of rules and procedures.”

Wow ! This is an institution of "Higher Learning". I can only take that to mean having their heads farther up their asses.

Thanks. But what really annoys me is Ideological Relative Grammar. That is, English language grammar altered for the purposes of conforming with ideological or political orthodoxy. For example I attended public school from 1978-1991. During that time, when speaking about, say, a musical band for instance we were taught to say, "The band Def Leppard IS awesome." By the time my junior year of college rolled around in the mid-90's professors were teaching kids to say the same thing like this, "The band Def Leppard ARE awesome." And now, after several years spent finishing up a graduate degree at a Baltimore College, I've had to listen ad fucking nauseam to countless little SJW pricks proudly say, "Boy George ARE my hero." More than enough torture to pull my hair out all by itself. Who said anyone could so drastically bastardize the English language?

The sissies we used to throw head first into the girls bathroom in high school are back to haunt us. They're still substandard and defective - you can't change that fact. We need to fight back.

Who is “teaching racism”? Besides BLM and Democrats that is?

 

[MarathonMike]

Biden has his own Orwellian dialect. It is called 'SpewSpeak'.

Biden would have told the Germans about D Day.

If no one is teaching it, I guess there is nothing to worry about, right?

Pinochet was a Patriot who loved his country and wouldn't allow Commies to have access.

Don't forget that the ones that got picked on in HS are the bosses now. The people that that did the bullying were at their peak and went downhill from there. Now they're the whiners.

SpewSpeak describes every speech Trump has ever given. Have you ever looked at the other Republicans? They're embarrassed as hell, but too cowed to admit it.

Right, because they are all more successful and more educated than you are. You peaked early.

His speech in S.D. was awsome.

Biden's speech in.....his basement.....was coherent (at best).
