This is happening now. Here are three real-life examples of elite organizations pushing the banning of words from public speech. Published\u00a05 days ago\u00a0on\u00a0December 13, 2021 ByVigilant Citizen \n\n\n\nThese days, the word \u201cOrwellian\u201d is being thrown around everywhere because, sadly, it is more relevant than ever. That\u2019s because some of the most oppressive elements found in George Orwell\u2019s dystopian novel&nbsp;Nineteen Eighty-Four&nbsp;are becoming reality right before our eyes.\n\n\n\nThe totalitarian state described in&nbsp;Nineteen Eighty-Four&nbsp;controls people through a number of mind-bending methods. One of them is Newspeak \u2013 a controlled language.\n\n\n\nIn the novel, the Party created Newspeak&nbsp;to meet the ideological requirements of English Socialism in Oceania. Newspeak is a controlled language of simplified grammar and restricted vocabulary designed to limit the individual\u2019s ability to think and articulate \u201csubversive\u201d concepts such as personal identity, self-expression and free will.&nbsp;Such concepts are criminalized as&nbsp;thoughtcrime&nbsp;since they contradict the prevailing Ingsoc orthodoxy.\u2013 Wikipedia,&nbsp;Nineteen Eighty-Four\n\n\n\nTo the elite,&nbsp;Nineteen Eighty-Four&nbsp;is not a cautionary tale, it is a blueprint. A real-life version of Newsp<span class=\"maquina-leer-mas\">[...x]<\/span><div id=\"premium-content-gate\" style=\"display:none;\" class=\"contenido-premium\">eak has been created by elite think tanks and it is currently being forced on the world using powerful organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the banning of specific words from public speech, the elite is looking to suppress the ideas they represent. As we\u2019ll see in this article, they are at war against genders, religions (Christianity in particular), history, and anything that relates to a national identity. The ultimate goal: To create a single, uniform, global culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how they are doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The European Union\u2019s Newspeak Bible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-42989\">Helena Dalli, the \u201cequality commissioner\u201d of the European Commission unveils&nbsp;<em>Guidelines on Inclusive Communication<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On October 30th, the European Commission presented a 30-page document titled&nbsp;<em>Guidelines on Inclusive Communication<\/em>. It is part of a plan championed by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to implement a \u201cUnion of Equality\u201d in Europe. Behind these meaningless words hides the real plan of this document: To control speech. Under threat of severe penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe this&nbsp;document&nbsp;should be read by everyone because sums up the outrageously Orwellian mind state of the elite. For instance, in the section titled \u201cTo be followed at all times\u201d, we can read:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Never use gendered nouns such as \u2018workmen, policemen\u2019 or masculine pronouns (he, his) as a default.<\/li><li>Do not use Miss or Mrs, unless it is the explicit preference of the person addressed; use Ms universally.<\/li><li>When asking about gender, do not offer only male\/female options, add \u2018other\u2019 and \u2018prefers not to say\u2019.<\/li><li>Never address an audience as \u2018ladies and gentlemen\u2019 but use expressions such as \u2018Dear colleagues\u2019.<\/li><li>Do not use the word \u201ccitizens\u201d to refer to people in general.<\/li><li>When addressing trans people, always respect self-identification.<\/li><li>Avoid gender-specific pronouns for people whose gender is unknown. It is preferable to use \u2018they\u2019 or reformulate the sentence so that no pronoun is needed, or use \u201che or she\u201d, \u201cs\/he\u201d (albeit this option is falling out of favour)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, they are attempting to erase concepts such as gender and national citizenship from public speech. But that\u2019s not all. The guide also dictates how groups of people should be represented in media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-42990\">This blurb of insanity can be found in the guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The guide actually says \u201cif we always portray mothers as child-carers, we perpetuate harmful stereotypes\u201d. Wow. There\u2019s a lot of craziness to unpack here. Mothers are, by definition, child-carers. That\u2019s what the word stands for. A mother caring for a child is not a \u201cstereotype\u201d. And it is certainly not \u201charmful\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The document also takes aim at Christianity by stipulating:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cNot everyone celebrates the Christian holidays, and not all Christians celebrate them on the same dates.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In one of its many Orwellian examples, the document recommends replacing the sentence \u201cChristmas time can be stressful\u201d by \u201cHoliday times can be stressful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Going further, the guide also frowns on using names \u201cthat are typically from one religion.\u201d It gives the example of using \u201cMalika and Julio\u201d instead of \u201cMaria and John\u201d to describe an \u201cinternational couple. That\u2019s because the names \u201cMaria\u201d and \u201cJohn\u201d are associated with Christianity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The release of this document went largely unnoticed for a couple of weeks until an Italian paper revealed its absurdity to the general public. The outcry was immediate. Even the pope, who is usually on board with globalist policies,&nbsp;compared the document to \u201cdictatorship\u201c. The Vatican accused the European Commission of \u201ccanceling Christmas\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several political figures also denounced the guidelines as efforts to erase the identity of nations inside the European Union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Faced with this backlash, the Guidelines were removed and its author promised to revise them. While this might be perceived as a \u201cwin\u201d, there\u2019s an important fact we need to realize: Every single part of this document is already being applied across mass media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The War Against the Word \u201cWoman\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-42999\">On this cover of the \u201creputed\u201d medical journal The Lancet, the word \u201cwomen\u201d was replaced by \u201cbodies with vaginas\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past years, this site has been documenting the blatant agenda to remove the word \u201cwoman\u201d from public speech.&nbsp;In 2020, JK Rowling ridiculed a headline that replaced the word \u201cwomen\u201d with \u201cpeople who menstruate\u201d. The backlash against her was immediate and continues to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some headlines that appeared in the past months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A recent article in The Economist (titled&nbsp;Why the word \u201cwoman\u201d is tying people in knots)&nbsp;states:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>A growing number of officials and organizations are finding themselves tongue-tied when it comes to using the word \u201cwoman\u201d.<\/p><p>A British hospital has instructed staff on its maternity wards to offer to use the phrase \u201cbirthing people\u201d. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a member of America\u2019s Congress, talks of \u201cmenstruating people\u201d. On September 18th the American Civil Liberties Union (<small>aclu<\/small>) republished a quote from Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a Supreme Court judge, on the anniversary of her death. The quote was a defence of a woman\u2019s right to have an abortion. But the&nbsp;<small>aclu<\/small>\u2019s version\u2014for which it, too, later apologised\u2014replaced every instance of \u201cwomen\u201d with \u201cpeople\u201d. In Britain the opposition Labour Party is tying itself in very public knots over questions such as whether only women possess cervixes.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not about \u201cinclusivity\u201d. This is about the suppression of genders. The best way to achieve it: Newspeak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The CBC Tells Canadians to Stop Using 18 Words<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-42996\">In an article titled \u201cWords and phrases you may want to think twice about using\u201c, the CBC posted this collage of words that should be banned from our vocabularies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) is the public broadcaster of Canada. Now, this government-owned entity (funded by taxpayer money) is publishing lists of words people should stop using. The first sentence of this surreal article goes as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Have you ever casually used the terms \u201cspirit animal,\u201d \u201cfirst-world problem,\u201d or \u201cspooky\u201d?&nbsp;It might be&nbsp;time to rethink your use of these phrases and remove them from your daily lingo.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The article is not about racial slurs or words that are blatantly offensive. It takes aim at regular, non-offensive words and uses flawed logic to explain why they\u2019re offensive. For instance, the article states that the word \u201cblackmail\u201d is offensive to black people because it is \u201cnegative\u201d and connotes \u201cdistrust\u201d.&nbsp; However, the \u201cexperts\u201d who were consulted in that article completely ignore the origins of the word (which has absolutely nothing to do with black people).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The word actually comes from the Scottish \u2018mail\u2019 meaning \u2018tax\u2019 or \u2018rent\u2019. In the old days, when the law and order situation was quite bad, farmers living along the borders of Scotland had very little protection against gangs who robbed and plundered. Instead of fighting these looters on a regular basis, farmers chose to pay them off in order to be left in peace.<\/p><p>This payment that they made was called \u2018blackmail\u2019 because the usual form of payment was black cattle \u2014 in the old days, a man\u2019s wealth was determined by how much cattle he had. If a farmer chose to pay in silver coins, then it was called \u2018white mail\u2019.<br>\u2013 Know Your English, What is the origin of \u2018blackmail\u2019?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The article also frowns on words such as spirit animal, powwow, and tribe because they \u201ccan be a painful insult to Indigenous communities\u201d. Once again, those are not insults, they are regular words. The words opossum, squash, avocado, canoe and kayak, skunk, and toboggan also originate from native languages. Should they be banned as well?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the word \u201ctribe\u201d has been in use since antiquity. It originates from the Latin word&nbsp;<em>tribus<\/em>&nbsp;which means: \u201cA group of persons forming a community and claiming descent from a common ancestor\u201d. What exactly about this word is \u201coffensive\u201d? Hint: Nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a final push for complete absurdity, the CBC article bans the \u201cbrainstorm\u201d. The reason?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Using the term brainstorm could also be insensitive to those who have brain injuries or are neurodiverse, added Cashman.<\/p><p>\u201cMore important is the stigma that it will effectuate&nbsp;about \u2026 &nbsp;disorders [like] epilepsy for example,\u201d said Kalra.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Wow. I\u2019m having a brain injury just by reading these explanations by so-called experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the CBC disabled comments on this article. However, journalists from several outlets ripped this thing to pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The war on words is real and it is being fought at high places. This article listed examples from the European Commission (the executive branch of the European Union), the American government, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and the medical journal&nbsp;<em>The Lancet<\/em>. All of these entities are implementing a plan that was hatched, years ago, by elite think tanks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ultimate goal: The create a uniform, global culture that would supplant the cultures, identities, and traditions of individual nations. Through the creation of a real-life Newspeak, the elite is attempting to suppress concepts such as genders, nations, religions, and history in order to instaurate a homogenous culture that can be applied worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anything that goes against this agenda is now deemed offensive.
