I agree with Cap's comment. Words are important.

Does anyone else remember the phrase "misappropriation of terminology" I see this on a regular basis when the progressives use a word that they have re-defined but neglect to tell me what their new definition is.

They also make up new words to suit their purpose. In my line of work we hear such words as "biodiversity". That word seems to have "evolved" from biological diversity which is a useful concept in biology. They achieve "biodiversity" by taking out the letters "l-o-g-i-c-a-l" and end up with an emotionally charged loss of "biodiversity" that can't be measured but it does cause politicians to provide huge grants to environmental activists.
