You've read some stuff on brainwashing, haven't you? Language is really powerful.
How about how they raped the word "honesty"? One of the most beautiful and blameless words in our language, tortured and bent to mean something frightening and horrible.
And it works the other way, too. Before the
Program, I associated the term "
twisted thinking" with things like the Mansons and Ted Bundy. But, when I started to get some
awareness, I came to have a
higher understanding of the true meaning of the term. What it
really means, to those of us with
awareness, is ...
...any thought or impulse inconsistent with whatever one might imagine staff and group would want you to think at the moment. There are just SO many words and phrases I'll never hear, read or use the same way ever again.
Never let your sense of
morals get in the way of
doing what's right
--Isaac Asimov
