Linguists seem curiously tolerant of certain buzzwords that obfuscate
rather than communicate. These buzzwords comprise oxymora, redundancies,
and slogans. For example, "political correctness" is an oxymoron, because
politicians are notoriously dishonest and incorrect; "climate change" is a
redundancy, because climate always changes; and "let's all come together
and move forward" is a slogan, because it seeks to control us as if we
were unruly children. Buzzwords are noxious nonsense and newspeak that
subliminally undermine our intellectual integrity and autonomy. George
Orwell's novel 1984 is prescient and timeless.
