ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤ"The practice of changing the meaning of words to manufacture consent is a concept explored in Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman’s book “Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media.” In this book, the authors discuss how the mass media, through various mechanisms like media ownership, advertising, media elite, flack, and the creation of a common enemy, manipulates language and narratives to shape public opinion and garner support for certain agendas. One aspect of this manipulation involves altering the meanings of words or concepts to influence how people perceive events or issues."
ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤ"Chomsky and Herman argue that by controlling the language used in media discourse, those in power can frame discussions in ways that benefit their interests. This manipulation of language can lead to a distortion of reality and create a false sense of consensus among the public. By changing the meanings of words or using loaded language, media outlets can influence how individuals interpret information and ultimately shape their beliefs and attitudes."
ㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤㅤ ㅤ ㅤ"In essence, changing the meaning of words is a tool used by the mass media to manufacture consent by controlling the narrative and influencing public opinion in favor of certain ideologies or agendas."

a) Manufacture implies "manual work", while work implies automatic aka auto (inception towards death) matic (life).
b) Consent implies send together...being implies send apart from one another.
Consenting to a suggestion by another puts that which nature sets apart back together.
Language aka speech implies "fictitious articulation within natural sound"
