Prime minister and Supreme leader are literally synonyms yet have such wildly different implications.
post
Their authoritarianism vs our law and order.
Their warcrime vs our collateral damage.
Their dictator vs our leader.
Their reeducation vs our rehabilitation.
Their state media vs our public media.
Defector/refugee - Illegal immigrant
Community service - Forced labor
Liberation - Occupation
Enhanced interrogation techniques - Torture
Community service is not forced labour 💀
You mean prison labour is forced labour. Community service is when they make dumbass teens arrested for something like vandalism or underage drinking, go and work at a soup kitchen, or pick up garbage off the side of the road as punishment.
Don't forget expat! They love that one.
"The adults in the room" versus "the unaccountable ruling class and their puppets"
THEY ARE THE SAME FUCKING THING
oligarchy - entrepreneurs
invasion - humanitarian intervention
indoctrination - common sense
surveillance - CCTV
attacking free press - defending national security
racial profiling/transphobia - stopping cultural marxism
freedom fighters - terrorists
united states - america
football - soccer
The various ways they avoid using "oligarch" for westerns. Western Billionaire, entrepreneur, etc, whereas it's always "Russian Oligarchs."
"Western philanthropist" vs "Russian Oligarch"
Expat / immigrant
Expat is a useful word, but it has been co-opted by those who very obviously aren’t expats and just don’t want to call themselves immigrants.
I think this isn't always true because they do mean different things. You're not an "immigrant" unless you're trying to stay there permanently, whereas "expats" can be sort of transient
In practice, people from the global south who are working for only a few years in rich countries are never called expats.
Unless you are a white person in Asia. Then you call yourself an expat even if you've been there for decades.
There's just a kajillion of them:
Their Stasi Vs our neighborhood watch
Their whataboutism Vs our providing important context
Their unaccountable regime security forces Vs our police officer who feared for his safety
Their re-education Vs our cult deprogramming
Their GULAG Vs our federal bureau of prisons
Their prison camps Vs our prisons
manifest destiny vs. the holocaust
Literally Lebensraum
Hitler quotes the bath riots and the gas chambers on the american-mexican border as inspo for his own gas chambers.
freedom fighters vs terrorists
Media really had a field day with these over the last 20 years.
Their police state versus our safety.
Authoritarian spying apparatus versus smart advertising.
- Bribery/corruption vs lobbying
- Oligarch vs job creator
- Warlord vs leader/general
- Preventable deaths are social murder
- Propaganda vs public relations
- Terrorist/guerilla and freedom fighter just depends on which side of the violence you're on
- Any use of the term "extremist"
- And the worst is that they call their fascists "neoliberals"
I'll start the thread.
Billionaire vs Oligarch
Custom vs Ritual
Freedom fighter vs Terrorist
Anime vs Cartoon
Anime vs Cartoon
It appears you have chosen violence.
Defence contractor vs weapons manufacturer
Used depending on who's buying weapons from whom
Their regime, our administration
Our prison, their prison camp
security forces vs police
