We had better start using the proper terminology for these people and what they are doing. For years I have referred to them as our owners - way way before covid or any of this in your face stuff - for years I got eye rolls and told thats over the top ridiculous. Well if this is not enough to convince people these people own or at least think we are owned their is no step they can take that is too far.

Words have a huge effect on our thought processes. Some words bring forth more emotion that others. Our owners have known this for decades and have altered the meaning and use of their language/words.

The media and politicians use the word elect leaders - I call them representatives -HUGE difference. I am not a follow the leader guy - I think for myself thank you very much. Now these leaders are in your face telling you they own you like some dog that they will beat and chain up at will. During covid we had these mandates - a somewhat innocuous word. I called them ORDERS. Try this on your spouse or significant other - I mandate you to carry the garbage out every evening - you might get a chuckle or slant eye. Now try I ORDER you to carry the garbage out. You'd better be ready for double birds on the order idea. NOBODY likes being ordered around. Just subtle changes by use in framing and words will start to wake the sleeping. Its a 2x4 upside the head. I've used this type of wording on "liberals" that support all kinds of government - but the order or the government does not own me shakes many to their core and I have even had some use that terminology later when doing something illegal - like not wearing a helmet while riding a motorcycle - they don't own me is their reasoning. Just one more: property tax - STOP using that word combo - its RENT if you don't believe that try not paying it and see if you get evicted.
