Someone should be keeping track of all the new and changed phrases/terms to the language in recent years. Yes, languages change over time. But it's been accelerated over the last decade with ideologues intentionally adding to and changing the language on a frequent basis as needed to better support their viewpoints.
I use it as a major tell for whether to trust a source or not; if they're using what's effectively actual newspeak, phrases and terms that were invented recently for ideological reasons, I know not to put any trust in them.
