I’ve taken a guilty pleasure recently in watching the faux intellectuals on MSNBC and CNN pass judgment on not just Donald Trump, but also on everyone who shares his disdain for authoritarian pronouncements on COVID-19, election integrity, climate change and a host of other issues.
From what I can tell after studying Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, Jake Tapper and the late, lamented Chris Cuomo, liberalism today is characterized by a low regard for the intelligence of average Americans and a very high regard for the elastic nature of language.
Essentially, words are expected to mean whatever Democrats and their media enablers want them to mean. This has been most evident in the war against Donald Trump since the 2020 election, but it was certainly in play earlier. For example, saying that Donald Trump is a “racist” meant he supports border security. Saying Donald Trump is a Russian “colluder” meant that Hillary Clinton had paid a British spy to manufacture a phony dossier implicating Trump.
But the campaign to destroy Trump really lifted into the stratosphere after the Nov. 3 election. When they called his claim that the election was stolen “the Big Lie,” what they meant was they don’t agree with him. When they said he made his claims “without evidence,” they meant “without evidence that they agree with” or that they would even look at.

Dem’s, antifa, BLM, MSM are pulling punches.
Is this the jabbed, masked rabble that obeys Fauci at every turn? Or the armed rabble that depend on Biden for a monthly government check or healthcare.
So if you subtract those.. what is left. The left has set up a great dependent class. That’s why even the marine corp is filled with Fauci bots.
Dem’s, antifa, BLM, MSM are pulling punches. (Don’t let the smooth taste fool you because they can and will do a lot worse than what we’ve already seen.)
The people are not stupid, we see, we know and we have had just about enough
high regard for the elastic nature of language.
Aka
Weasels and weasel words.
