This is a quite relevant short essay by George Orwell, the author of 1984. We are now at the point in our political degeneration where words are literally being redefined in an attempt to manipulate the perception of reality itself. Our thoughts are composed of words, therefore our world views are dependent on their definitions. 1984 was not supposed to be a manual, but unfortunately he was even more prophetic than most people ever imagined. Just don't forget, 2 + 2 = 5. Your life may soon depend on it.

hence
preference -> privilege (as in white privilege)
enforcement -> brutality (as in law enforcement)
resentment -> racism
The original meaning of the words on the right is lost as a result. I believe we truly live in society as described in the 1984 novel, hate=love, war=peace, lie=truth, etc.
I do not know how this happens.
The most interesting thing is that you try not to live by these rules. But the leaders of the countries ... The most interesting thing is that we chose them, we endowed them with this power. So are they really we?
