概要

It really feels like nothing anyone says matters anymore. Companies aren't transparent, friends flake, leaders promise things they can't deliver. This leads to an overall degradation of language and trust, or what I like to call "linguistic inflation."

The slight bright spot in this problem is that it isn't new, at all.

Join in on the conversation today as we unpack what linguistic inflation looks like at all levels, why it really is that deep, and how some of the greatest dystopian classics like Animal Farm, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451 showcase what happens when a society allows it to continue.

This isn't meant to be a moral panic or fear-mongering...it's just that I'm an English teacher and I know a pattern when I see it.
