Simon (2.₿y.2) Kofah on Nostr: Orwellian double-speak has quietly created a deep semantic divide that enables ...
Orwellian double-speak has quietly created a deep semantic divide that enables reality-manufacturing at an unimaginable rate. Add AI, and all bets are off. We underestimate how much of "objective" reality is actually perspectival.
Yesterday I learned, this whole time, that my wife has thought Trump Derangement Syndrome referred to irrational PRO-TRUMP zealots. Your media diet defines your reality.
This successful coopting of language negates any hope of compromise, agreement, or a democratic resolution to modern societal rifts.
This is tower of Babel stuff.
