Sinister Becomes Right

And what Donald is very, his main, his main game as indeed is Putin’s and the CCP, and Tulsi Gabbard as the apparatchia is to re-archetype what is true and what is the real, what is right, writ right. And they are usurping what is right and they’re deliberately trying to affect people’s minds.

The etymological reversal at the heart of this passage is devastating: “sinister” (Latin for “left”) becomes “right.” The author identifies a coalition — Donald, Putin, CCP, Gabbard — united not by ideology but by the shared practice of re-archetyping what is “right” and “true.” This is rearchetyping applied to the moral foundations of language itself.
