I was not asking for you to inform me of my faults, which appear to me to be entirely your construction, but setting that aside, and setting aside the faults of the speaker that may or may not be your construction, the concept of language being willfully manipulated so as to empower the manipulators at the expense of the manipulated appears to be well enough understood in general terms by my reading of your response.
Perhaps the medium of exchange is less than it could be as a tool that could be used for conveying ideas accurately.
My idea was that you may have run into similar discoveries concerning the actual science of language whereby knowing how it can work as good as math or at least improved to a point where it can work as good as math, when the goal is to convey accurate meaning as compared to a goal of deception.
The speaker in the very long link of way too many references to questionable statements of fact spoke about language being specifically used to create false messages, using adverb-verb, or some such combinations, whereby the reader who is untrained in language is led to believe that the message is true, or authoritative, when in fact the message is false, and the message is therefore only authoritative by deception.
I don't know if those words can be understood, those words I just wrote, by anyone, at this point.
The speaker spoke also of language being present tense, not past tense, nor future tense, but here and now speech, as that relates to the concept of authority.
The speaker also spoke about speech, or language, broken down into negatives and positives, which I found to be another source of potential control by those who resort to deception, threats, and violence upon their targeted victims. A sign that appears to say one thing, when it actually says the opposite thing, sounds familiar to me.
I hope that you are making the best of your time here on Earth, and if it means anything to you I even trust that you are doing so as best you can.
