Newspeak

In George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, Big Brother restricted people’s ability to think by eliminating words from the language.

    The Left realizes too late that Political Correctness is a virus that is eating their movement from within.

      That is good fun. 🙂
      In the “politically correct” settings that Chait and DeBoer are describing, no sooner has a freethinking person started to say, “Well, I think” — than a grotty little pop-up box has appeared to interrupt him with a stream of tosh. “Error 349xxf9: Privileges unchecked,” a typical response might read. Or, if we are dealing with a more serious case: “Error 948xxer11: Tolerance Level Low: Fault at LGBT Sector Cis*Trans*Kin: Intersectionality Improperly Allied.”
