"The Language of the Third Reich" by Victor Klemperer is about how the nazis manipulated the language as a means of manipulating society.
We see the same today in America where words like "Militia" used to conjure images of honor, duty, and patriotism, now are used to label right wingers as dangerous violent criminals.

We are foolish when we play by the rules of Lawyers. In the end this small minded "tactical" thinking will do more harm than good.
Why do we debate ? Are any of us willing to disarm because a poll or an activist judge or a lawyer wins an argument ?
We need to think and act strategically. This is my method.
