I honestly don't think I've ever seen a petard-hoisting this fast before.
Bingo. This is a typical tactic of trying to get the results you want with as little backlash as possible. They’ll keep changing the name until everyone forgets a social credit score exists or there’s very little news about it. You’ll still hear about it from Glenn Beck, because he was one of the first to report on ESG, but you won’t hear about it on any other major right wing news outlets because nobody will care by then.
Correct, 1,000 times correct. Another example: They’ve just about successfully jumped off the word “woke,” which leftists were still using as a positive term applicable to themselves until about 2020 or 2021. I know I still heard a few (older) SJW types use it that way in ‘21. But now their programmed line is to claim only right-wingers use the word, and that it has no definition even though they used it explicitly and with a clear definition for ten years. It’s all word games, that’s all they have. Try to operate in the shadows as long as they can, and when detected, the way they get back in the shadows is by renaming whatever they are still doing.
Yup. The enemy seeks deflection once the right makes headway on something.
Note we're not hearing about Critical Race Theory anymore. It's still there, but they are keeping quite because the troon groomers is attracting more dissident attention, and they think they can work with that, more than defending explicit racialism in school.
