Yes. Noam Chomsky, that slimeball. Great quote, though.

It encapsulates the Liberal approach to speech and communication. "...Even the interpretation and use of words involves a process of free creation..."

If you take the time to actually listen to liberals, they will tell you exactly what they stand for. You just need to parse it out and listen. Basically, words can mean whatever YOU want them to mean, and because everything is relative, what YOU say the words mean is JUST as important as what I say they mean. There is no fixed meaning.

And liberals have the astounding GALL to call conservatives "Orwellian".

“And liberals have the astounding GALL to call conservatives “Orwellian”.”

As you say, in liberal-speak, it can mean anything you want it to mean. To a liberal, ‘Orwellian’ can mean, ‘not compliant with our philosophies, which are engineered such that we may retain power’.

Unfortunately, if you don’t listen to them, they’ll accuse you of being closed-minded;))
