It really isn't, and trying to force absurd 1984 references makes absolutely no sense at all.
Think about it for a second: if you already feel you have the absolute best candidate for a spot already working at your side, or you create a position specifically to get that person to work for you, does that mean you are racist or sexist or, as you chose to imply with your absurd comparison, fascist?
- yes_really 5y agoHow is the comparison to doublespeak absurd? They are literally making contradictory statements while refusing to make any logical association between them. That's exactly what doublespeak is.
- fivea 5y ago> How is the comparison to doublespeak absurd? Because the accusation has absolutely nothing to do with doublespeak, and given the fundamental difference between the meaning of doublespeak and the case discussed then it's so far-fetched that just reads as a desperate attempt to gratuitously pin the fascist label. > They are literally making contradictory statements while refusing to make any logical association between them. If you knew the definition of doublespeak and read the article and the comments you'd quickly understand the absurdity of your accusation.
