Longing for days gone by, Fox News host Mark Levin claimed that when the word "gay" came to mean "homosexuality,' that was actually a Marxist plot to control you with language.
On Levin's Westwood One radio program, he explained how language controls ideas and ideas control populations.
"Just as an example, the word gay used to mean happy. It had nothing to do with sex," Levin said. "It had nothing to do with the identification of sexual behavior, but not anymore."
The word "gay" has meant sexual orientation since the 1960s. That's sixty years, Mark.
"And so the goal here is to control the language. You control the language, you control the ideas, you control the debate, and then you demand conformity."
"That standard language, yes, doesn't apply anymore. Don't use it. Use the -- the new language."
"You're just trying to dominate us with your language. So, the goal is to subvert the dominant language, the standard language, and replace it with different language."
The MAGA cultists and their media minions use language all the time to control their viewers.
Look how Republicans have appropriated the word "woke."
As President Biden said, it was a term by the Black community to keep "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination."
Republicans have turned the word it into whatever their latest outrage of the day is.
For some, like Marjorie Taylor Greene, woke means anything non-white. For others it means diversity, incivility and a bevy of issues many republicans can't even define -- just like Republican Gov. Chris Sununu.
Just the mention of the word "woke" and Republicans nod their heads in agreement.
Is the MAGA cult really communists hiding in plain sight?
