Word Wars: How Attacks on Meaning Rob You of Free Speech by Morgan Moore (Life & Liberty Series)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 152kb
Overview: When was the last time you had an honest open-hearted conversation?
People in countries without democratic freedom flee to Western societies for a safe haven – to speak freely, debate openly and seek prosperity unrestricted by authoritarian control and ideological dictatorship.
But now Western Societies are in trouble. Western values – born out of the rise of representative democracy, the age of reason, science and enlightenment, victory of reason over superstition and celebration of individual freedom – are under attack.
Words can only carry the power of the human mind in as far as we can share meaning.
This is at the heart of innovation, progress and every communication between people including that of love and compassion. The silencing of our voices is a violation of our most intrinsic human right – to negotiate meaning for ourselves.

Word Wars brings forward the perspective of the worker, missing from much of the media reporting today, to confront institutional elitism and the bewildering array of moral conflicts bleeding into peoples’ lives.
An easy read sense-making guide full of gripping case studies.
To shed light on the upending of meaning going on.
Written especially for the busy person stressed & worried by it all.
Concise, to the point, without padding, and with trusted references.
A perfect gift to reach out across the divide for common ground.
Meanings of many common use words and concepts are under assault. Words we once used without a worry have become weapons with which to castigate and silence. – It is no wonder people feel as if they are walking on eggs!
By understanding the Word Wars happening you will be well equipped to deal with the dangerous duplicity you encounter. There are solutions – some will even make you laugh! (You know how the woke dislike that…)
Media bias and algorithm curated information can make it difficult to be aware of what is happening in the country next door. What you get when you read Word Wars will be a solid sense of the woke weaponization of words worldwide and a powerful set of tools to sustain you in the days ahead.
Western Values are at Risk from a Victimhood Politics that Equate Words with Violence
The past years Marxist critical theory ideologies merged into neo-liberalism resulting in a identity tribalism that pitch various groups dependent on identity around race, gender and sexuality against each other, and society.
People who are just trying to get through the day and take care of their families have been silenced under an onslaught of words like postmodernism, intersectionality, identity politics, political correctness, critical race theory, social justice, cancel culture, virtue-signaling, microaggressions, trigger-warnings…
WHAT IS AT STAKE? Nothing less than the sovereignty of the individual and a battle for the future and for freedom.
Do not be Silenced – Speak Up!
In Word Wars you will ‘hear’ the ruling of High Court Justice Julian Knowles in the UK in the Harry Miller case where the police visited Miller at his place at work, to ‘check his thinking’ – just like the ‘thought police’ in Orwell’s ‘1984’.
But the High Court judge quoted the great utilitarian, John Stuart Mill’s treatise On Liberty, in a verdict stating that the claimant “disproportionately interfered with his (Miller’s) right of freedom of expression, which is an essential component of democracy.”
Know therefore that you are not alone. Many have stood before us in history for this freedom, and many rise to protect it now, because freedom of speech ensures a life of liberty.
