I got this question posed, and started to think slowly, but was really interested in feedback on this idea.
In effect, language does indeed manipulate the truth, as it is with words we state anything. hence can anything be altered and changed for different goals.
also, in ways we say some things, such as "he was the least best" is actually the same as "he was the worst" but the impact of the last seems much harder than the one before.
what are your thoughs upon all this?
