Words matter. And when those in power start manipulating definitions to fit an agenda, it’s a red flag that should make any thinking person stop and ask: What else are they lying about?
Take, for example, the definition of a vaccine—something most of us understood for our entire lives. A vaccine stimulates immunity to a disease using a weakened or inactivated form of a virus or bacteria. Simple, right? Well, not anymore. In 2021, after the introduction of mRNA medical products, the CDC quietly changed the definition of a vaccine to remove references to preventing disease and replace it with language about merely providing “protection.” Why? Because calling the mRNA shot a “gene therapy”—which it had been classified as prior—sounded too alarming to the general public. Instead of explaining the new technology honestly, they just rewrote the language to make it fit.
That’s not transparency—that’s bureaucratic tyranny. When the government decides what words mean on a whim, rather than acknowledging facts, we’re no longer dealing with informed consent. We’re dealing with coerced compliance.
Even more troubling is the concern from Dr. Robert Malone, one of the original pioneers of mRNA technology, who has openly questioned whether mRNA vaccines could lead to viral shedding—the unintended transmission of spike proteins or other vaccine-induced materials. Now, whether one believes Malone’s concerns or not, shouldn’t an honest government encourage open scientific debate rather than censor dissent? Instead, we saw an orchestrated effort to discredit, silence, and de-platform voices raising legitimate questions.
Here’s the reality: When the government forces mandates based on shifting definitions, suppresses opposing views, and expects blind obedience, it’s no longer acting as a public servant—it’s behaving as an authoritarian ruler. A free populace questions authority, demands honesty, and refuses to be gaslit into submission. The moment we accept manipulated definitions and propaganda as normal, we cease to be a free people at all.
