Given the resounding defeat the liberals and the mainstream suffered in the presidential, senate, and congressional elections, liberals (in the tradition of Joseph Stalin) have resorted to new, politically correct "soundbytes" in an attempt to villify opponants, and use propaganda to achieve thier goals.


"Fake News": Given that the mainstream media is no longer a media source, but a propaganda unit for the left, leftwing politicians have become accostomed to having thier agenda presented, without question or discussion, to the public as the gospel truth.

Given that Trump evicerated the mainstream media and exposed thier form of information as "fake news", liberals have now attacked the truth (which they were unwilling to present) as "fake news.

Liberal speak- "Fake News"= every piece of information that does not support far left agendas.


"White Supremicist": "Racist" has now lost its meaning and shock value, due to overuse of the term by liberals. "Racist" in liberalspeak, has come to mean everything that disagrees with left wing agendas, regardless of whether it concerns race or not. Like all aspect of liberal, politically correct speech, the goal is to suppress and villify opposing views.

Now that "racist" no longer has the same "sting" that it once commanded, the left now calls everyone who disagress with them a "white supremacist".

Liberal speak- "White Supremacist"- everyone who disagrees with a liberal.

The mainstream liberal media are the purveyors of Fake News.

Huh, liberals in the US are followers of Stalin??? What are these sound bytes? "White supremacist" is not a sound-byte. You need to back up your statements if you want to write an effective persuasive essay. Your OP is very confusing and has no explanation.

On a side note, I wonder what kind of education many received. It is disheartening to read so many scrambled screeds. No way these posters passed basic English classes (at least in my secondary schooling). I may not agree with an argument but it has to make sense before I can agree or not. If I were your teacher, I would fail you.

I agree with your points, the left attempts to engage in brainwashing through language on a grand scale. "White supremacists" is a better slur for them as they can blame whites only and allows them to ignore the very real racism of other races and ethnic groups. It's amazing how these new slurs and tropes seem to appear everywhere instantly and used in the same way. I think they are commanded by the Democratic Politburo, communicated instantly by email,etc, to the comrades, with detailed instructions on how to use them. Reminds me of the Red Guards waving Mao's Little Red Book and screaming for blood.

It only makes sense that wingnuts are now embracing fake news as legitimate, you have to remember these people have really invented their own reality since the election of George W. Bush in 2000, and it has gone steadily off the rails ever since. But now the fringe has gone mainstream, and a fake news website called Breitbart has been propelled into the White House and the President elect's ear.

It only makes sense they would circle the wagons and start calling legitimate (i.e., reality-based) journalism "fake" as they rely on Alex Jones and Breitbart to feed their delusions.

It's sad, but as I've said on numerous occasions, the Dumbing Down of America is deliberate, targeted, and as this forum proves, highly effective.

The GOP thanks you, Donald Trump thanks you and I thank you you. Keep up the good work.

Very scary. I joked about the movie "Idiocracy" before but it sure seems like this is our immediate future. I did not think the American empire would decline this quickly.

You are proud of your ignorance? Of course the GOP and Trump want a dumbed down America. You are easier to control. You fall for their propaganda and don't realize it. Shaking my head at our downfall...
