Yes, New Left has been masterful at manipulating our language to their advantage with euphemisms like “social justice” (really mob justice), “equity” (political resource redistribution), “gender affirmation” (sex change), etc. They’ll continue to get away with it as long as cultural institutions (Education, Social & Mainstream Media) enable & provide cover.

A decade ago I was quite happy to say that I sought "social justice." Either my understanding was deficient back then, or the meaning has undergone an Orwellian Newspeak shift. I think the latter.

I think we’d all like a perfect justice system, and would agree our current system is flawed & biased in many ways and that we should strive for better - but it’s still one of (if not *the*) best available, and easy to “dismantle” but very hard to measurably improve. The SJW/Woke/Left seem determined to learn this the hard way, at great cost to all of our society.
