Don't Talk Like a 'Liberal'

When you do, you validate their obfuscatory and question-begging jargon.

 

For example, leftists believe in something they call 'hate speech.' As they use the phrase, it covers legitimate dissent.

 

It is foolish for a conservative to say that he is for 'hate speech,' or that 'hate speech' is protected speech. Dennis Prager has been known to make this mistake. We conservatives are for open inquiry and the right to dissent. Put it that way, in positive terms.  

 

If leftists take our dissent as 'hateful,' that is their presumably willful misapprehension. We shouldn't validate it.

 

Don't let leftists frame the debate. He who controls the terms of the debate controls the debate.
