by Rod Williams, May 12, 2023- When you think the woke cannot get nuttier they do. According to the May 15th issue of National Review, a Vermont school district is replacing "man" and "women" with "person who produces sperm" and "person who produces eggs."
Liberal Speak Translation Guide
Intended for use when reading the Nashville Scene, when listening to NPR, most mainstream media including The Tennessean, academics, and liberal politicians. These terms may also be encountered when talking to any liberal. If your child recently went away to college and returns home for a visit, you may encounter these terms. If you watch MSNBC you will definitely need this guide where the liberal speak term is the term that is always used. Because sane people acquiesce and surrender their culture many of these terms become standard usage. Please do not surrender to the liberal attack on our culture by using the liberal speak terms.

by Rod Williams, March 28, 2023 - I am adding one new term with this update. The term is "sensitivity reader." Sensitivity readers read the work of an author and replace words in the original version with words that conform to modern liberal sensibilities. In essence, "sensitivity readers" are censors. Authors whose works have been modified include works by Roald Dahl, Ian Fleming, and Agatha Christie.
Acclaimed mystery author Agatha Christie, in her novel The Mysterious Affair at Styles had identified a Jewish person as a Jew. Censors erased the word identifying the persons identify from "Jew,' to "person." In Death on the Nile, some characters were described as Nubian, as in the ethnic group from the region of Nubia. That descriptive term was eliminated. In another work a person was described as "Black" and that word was removed. (link)
In Roald Dahl's classic children's book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory a character was referred to as "enormously fat," and censors removed "fat" and just called the character "enormous." In Chocolat Factory and other works by Dahl, more censorship took place to sanitize his works to make them more politically acceptable. (link)
by Rod Williams, March 24, 2023 - It has been about ten months since I updated this guide and wow! How the language has changed! Most of the new terms I have added are related to promoting the queer and transgender agenda. Liberals are finding new uses of the language to promote the medical mutilation of children.
Many words that need a translation are not unfamiliar words but an expanded or different meaning of words. Take the use of the term "White supremacist." We used to know what that word meant. Now anyone who does not support an equity agenda or identity politics may be a White supremacist. Many Asians are now considered White supremacist because they resist limits placed on how many Asians will be accepted at the better universities. Universities do this to keep Asians from being overrepresented and to open more slots for Black students.
Recently in Virginia the governor appointed a women named Suparna Dutta for a position on the state board of education. She is a India-born Hindu women who had founded a parent's group at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. The group accused the school or abandoning its merit-based admission standards in order to reduce the number of Asian students. Ms Dutta also angered progressives by her criticism of socialism and her defense of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Her opponents smeared her with the label of White supremist and denied her a seat on the board. Read more about it at this link, and this link.
One problem with labeling people you disagree with as White supremacist is that after a while the term loses its sting. If Suparna Dutta is a White supremacist, I might be a White supremacist. This long ago happened with the terms Fascist and Communist. When people call someone a Communist or a Fascist or even a Nazi, I know longer assume they are really a Nazi, or Fascist or Communist.
Ableist is a word commonly used to describe one who thinks John Fetterman stroke may have reduced his ability to perform the job of Senator.
Agist is anyone who points out that Joe Biden is not as young as he used to be and sometimes has "senior moments," and questions if at age 80 he should be elected to four more years.
May 13, 2022- The new addition to our Liberal Speak Translation Guide is "Gender Affirmation Treatment," or "Gender Affirmation Surgery." I first saw this in a description of a movie on Netflix then I started seeing it in mainstream publications and in NPR news reports. This is such a loaded term. It implies that the gender in a person's head is their real gender. It implies that treatments such as hormone therapy, hormone blockers, breast implants, tracheal shave, vaginoplasty, or other actions to make one's body conform to the thought in one's mind is the correct course of action. It is fixing a mistake of nature. This term says that giving a male, female characteristics (or vise versa) simply affirms reality.
12- 3- 2021- I discovered a new politically correct term today and this is a doozy. Someone once crudely said political correctness was an attempt to pick up a turd by the clean end. That is a good description for many politically correct terms but is a real good fit for this one. The term is “Minor-Attracted Persons” or “MAPs” for short. The Daily Wire reports that it was coined by an Old Dominion University (ODU) professor of sociology and criminal justice named Allyn Walker. We think of these people as pedophiles, filthy perverts, sick people, who are sexually attracted to children. Since the only behavior, the liberal culture finds abhorrent is judgmentalism, expect this term to gain traction.
12-9-2018 - It is time for a liberal speak translation update. The culturally loony left keeps getting loonier.
Twitter has decided to ban “dead naming.” If a man decides he wants to change his sexual identity and adopts a new feminine name, even if it is not his legal name, it violates liberal standards to call him by his real name. Take the example of Bradley Manning, the former United States Army soldier who was convicted by court-martial in July 2013 of violations of the Espionage Act and other crimes. He decided he was a she and said he was now "Chelsea Manning." To call him a "he" is politically incorrect and to refer to him as "Bradley Manning" is to commit the liberal sin of "dead naming."
Another word that needs explaining that has entered the vocabulary is "shaming," such as "slut-shaming," "fat-shaming," "mommy-shaming," "body-shaming," This is an expression of disapproval, verbal or by body language or facial expression that you disapprove of someone else's morals, values, grooming, character, behavior or looks. It is failure to hide your judgment of another.
A term that should have been on this list but I somehow overlooked it "victim-blaming." An example of "victim-blaming" may be to point out that if one had exercised better decision making maybe bad things would have not happened to them. For instance, if a female college student dresses provocatively, teases guys, gets crazy drunk, and then goes back to the dorm with a guy and he takes advantage of her, to say she did not exercise caution and prudence is "victim-blaming." To point out that to decrease the chances of being poor one should finish school and not have children before you get married is blaming the victim.
3-12-18 - This is the first time I have updated since April 2011. At that time if a news story said, "she filed a lawsuit," we knew what that meant. Now "she" might be a he who dresses like a woman or wants to think he is a woman or has embraced his femininity or sufferers from gender confusion.
