The Mainstream Media (MSM) habit of using politically correct words and phrases is an attempt to control the way people think. 
The control of language is an essential policy in the establishment of a totalitarian society.
Syria: Biased reporting
I have been following media reports about the situation in Syria and have become increasingly annoyed about the ‘editorial’ style of reporting events.
What do I mean by this?
Well, I want to know what is happening in Syria but I’m getting biased reports from news channels and reporters.
Every story seems to be an editorial.
In other words, journalists insist on putting their own ‘spin’ on the story.
By selecting certain adjectives and using other literary tools, the author manipulates the reader.
Consider these phrases which the MSM use all the time: 
- ‘The regime of President Bashir al-Assad’.
- ‘The Assad regime’.
- ‘Syrian rebels’.
- ‘Syrian protesters’.
Notice the use of the word ‘regime’ instead of ‘government’.
Also, see how the MSM describes terrorists as “protesters” and “rebels”.
Politically Correct words and phrases
Left-wingers use politically correct words and phrases because they believe that words such as ‘Christmas’ and ‘manpower’ might offend some people. 
However, it’s much more than that; political correctness is used as a form of mind control.
The phrase ‘best man for the job’ is now politically incorrect; it’s now ‘best person for the job’.
Some words have not been replaced but have taken on a new meaning.
For example, the word ‘fascist’ now means anyone who disagrees with the far-left.
Furthermore, the word ‘dictator’ now means any leader who does not agree with the UK government.

Britons have been gagged by political correctness.
The British National Party believes in freedom of speech and also believes that criticism and dissent are essential in a democracy.
The far-left uses slur words against their political opponents because they have lost the argument.

Controlling the language is crucial in a totalitarian system.
The author George Orwell in his book Politics and the English Language wrote: “If thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought”.
Hence, Orwell’s invention of the fictional language Newspeak which is used in his classic dystopian novel 1984.
Newspeak is a form of English that is controlled by the state to corrupt happiness and free thought.
