Newspeak (2020 version)

 I've read "1984" 3 times (last time 30 years ago), and I basically remember very little of it. I feel compelled to revisit it.

The language of 2020 in the Overton Window is turning into a more nuanced version of the newspeak of 1984. 

Someone doesn't wear a mask, then they are "Murderers!" worthy of pepper spray in the face - for a start.

Someone supports the cops, then they are the same as murdering cops (all of cops are murdering people of color, or course) - so worthy of being murdered.

Someone that doesn't see racism behind every western-culture corner, then they are racist and deserving of cancelling (a SJW word), is definitely a racist, and is therefore aiding and abetting cultural and actual murder, and is deserving of being murdered.

All the attacks on normal life come with loaded words or flat out lying or redefining words:

"RACIST" Some conservative commentators have declared this word practically meaningless, because it has been turned into a one-size-fits-all club for hitting anyone that doesn't except the left's opinion that everything normal is racist. I do not believe that it is harmless. It might be misapplied, but it still stings and requires a response, because each incident of its use is often based on other lies.
