It effects language and ultimately society.

Take this nonsense for example

And then this piece in the express

It is asking you suspend what you are seeing with your own eyes. That is a MAN in a dress nothing more nothing less. You know it is, I know it is, he knows it is. Not a she.

Once you can make people say the opposite of what they see, I'll probably get rediculed for this........but hasn't anybody read the end of 1984?

Language is important, so is the right to say what is implicitly true, even if it upsets some people.
