Language manipulation works best on stupid idolators. You take a concept that the stupid masses idolize, and then convince them that the evil thing you are promoting falls under this concept.

It will be hard to beat the language-manipulators at their game, so I think the only way to counter language-manipulators is to push monotheism on the masses. Then all their faith will be concentrated in God instead of in a collection of abstract concepts which the elite can manipulate.

I guess we don't even need to "manipulate" either since we have more of the truth on our side.
