This is what the Politically Correct people are actually doing. They’re reimposing artificial PC cultural norms in place of the old ones they’ve destroyed in order to regain order. The end point of the Left isn’t freedom, it is fascism described as freedom.

If you replace the words “regain order” with “gain power” I would agree with you 100%. If civilization does survive I think future historians will refer to this time as the “Age of Equivocation.” Propaganda rules because appealing to reason, if reason is followed, will undermine the cause Leftists espouse. Just take a word that has a good emotional connotation and stamp a meaning on it that is totally beyond and outside the original meaning of the word. The term “social justice” comes to mind as a good example.

Not only does the “Newspeak” definition hide the ugly motives of the people who pervert the word it casts doubt and misunderstanding upon those who use the words in their original and unadulterated terms.

It used to be, or at least they said it was, that the Left used to be about the “people.” These days the people be damned– its all about who gets to be the “dictatorship of the proletariat” and how many perks you’ll get from that.
