    This is what fascists do. They co-opt the language of their political opponents, and divorce any meaning from the word.

    The strategy is to deny their opponents the vocabulary they need to organize. This is part of the same strategy as burning books that teach black history and banning students from saying the word gay.

    They never taught their slaves how to read either
