Prime minister and Supreme leader are literally synonyms yet have such wildly different implications.
oligarchy - entrepreneurs
invasion - humanitarian intervention
indoctrination - common sense
surveillance - CCTV
attacking free press - defending national security
racial profiling/transphobia - stopping cultural marxism
freedom fighters - terrorists
united states - america
football - soccer
There's just a kajillion of them:
Their Stasi Vs our neighborhood watch
Their whataboutism Vs our providing important context
Their unaccountable regime security forces Vs our police officer who feared for his safety
Their re-education Vs our cult deprogramming
Their GULAG Vs our federal bureau of prisons
Their prison camps Vs our prisons
Their authoritarianism vs our law and order.
Their warcrime vs our collateral damage.
Their dictator vs our leader.
Their reeducation vs our rehabilitation.
Their state media vs our public media.
I'll start the thread.
Billionaire vs Oligarch
Custom vs Ritual
Freedom fighter vs Terrorist
Anime vs Cartoon
Defector/refugee - Illegal immigrant
Community service - Forced labor
Liberation - Occupation
Enhanced interrogation techniques - Torture
Community service is not forced labour 💀
You mean prison labour is forced labour. Community service is when they make dumbass teens arrested for something like vandalism or underage drinking, go and work at a soup kitchen, or pick up garbage off the side of the road as punishment.
Internship vs unpaid labor
our 'hard-hitting journalism', their 'state-funded propaganda'
"The adults in the room" versus "the unaccountable ruling class and their puppets"
THEY ARE THE SAME FUCKING THING
Their police state versus our safety.
Authoritarian spying apparatus versus smart advertising.
The various ways they avoid using "oligarch" for westerns. Western Billionaire, entrepreneur, etc, whereas it's always "Russian Oligarchs."
On that note: "bribery" and "lobbying"
Their regime, our administration
our riots vs their protests for freedom
The Dictator's hand-picked successor.
The President's endorsement.
Our prison, their prison camp
"internment camp" might be good to plug here
Defence contractor vs weapons manufacturer
Used depending on who's buying weapons from whom
security forces vs police
i like using that one about america, it makes liberals weirdly defensive lol
Paid volunteers vs mercenaries
White nationalism vs white supremacist
In terms of Israel: Skirmishes vs terrorist attacks
freedom fighters vs terrorists
Media really had a field day with these over the last 20 years.
Assassination/targeted killing and mercenary/contractor legit make me furious. Up there with "enhanced interrogation".
Immigrant vs Expat
Our routine missile test vs their provocative missile launch
gulag vs prison oligarch vs entrepreneur
Savages committing human sacrifices vs Carrying out God's divine justice
Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
