Hey everyone, it’s Leaflit! Today I’m reacting to Remnant777’s video “How the Left Manipulates Language,” which exposes how terms like homophobia, originally meaning “irrational fear,” are now used to mean “hatred of gay people.” Yet words like misogyny—from “miso” (hate) + “gyny” (woman)—aren’t rebranded, despite having the same literal structure. He also highlights how racism has been redefined from “prejudice based on race” to “prejudice + institutional power over race,” shifting meaning to suit political narratives.

I stand with Remnant777. Language isn’t a toolbox for ideological spin—it’s our shared map of meaning. When definitions change underwater, confusion arises, debate fractures, and laws built on these shifting terms can be warped. What comes next—trying to pathologize people for "homophobia" the way we once stigmatized anxiety? That’s not progress. Let’s insist on consistency, etymological respect, and universal definitions so we can truly understand each other.

On racism, many on the left now define it as “prejudice plus institutional power”. That redefinition shifts the focus from individual actions to power dynamics—potentially changing what counts as “racist.”

Critics warn this semantic twist can obscure meaning and hinder dialogue—diluting terms, mislabeling, and even enabling ideological lawsuits or censorship.

Historically, psychiatrists pathologized phobias—could redefined “phobia” labels like “homophobia” lead to policy shifts or stigmatization? That’s a slippery slope.

Clarity is power – Shared language is how we negotiate reality. Semantic manipulation breaks that trust.

Guard against doublespeak – You can’t redefine just one side of a binary and expect people to unpack the hidden agenda.

Protect legal and ethical frameworks – Law relies on agreed definitions; changing words midstream can warp justice.

Champion thoughtful conversation – Language is culture, tradition, and connection. It’s worth protecting.
