I increasingly think that “freedom” is the most important word to take back from the fascists.

In rightwing hands, freedom often means
“no rules to allow billionaires to accumulate all the profits and power” or “privatize and destroy societal services” — schools to healthcare.

Real freedom is freedom from want, freedom to pursue happiness without worry about healthcare bankruptcy and with good schools for all.

@protecttruth I would add ‘patriot’ to this list
@Dfulton @protecttruth Dr Johnson said ‘patritism is the last refuge of a scoundrel’. What he didn’t mean (according to his biographer, Boswell) was ‘a real and generous love of our country’, but ‘that pretended patriotism which so many, in all ages and countries, have made a cloak for self-interest’.
