MEXICO CITY (NE) Presently there is a worrying "manipulation of language" that "hides true lies, as part of a culture of death that invades us", recently warned the Archdiocese of Mexico in its publication "Nuevo Criterio". Words are emptied of their contents, manipulated, and finally, the concepts that they represent are replaced by others in an imperceptible, subtle, but completely real way, the magazine denounced it its last issue.

    "A culture of lie and simulation invades us… Not only new lives are annihilated, but those who, unprepared an ignorant of a process of manipulation of language, are seduced by false ideas and thus controlled. They think that they are free, but in reality, they are being manipulated from outside."

    The article also states that "in this country we have become experts in manipulating language to hide the truth", especially in attacks against life and family. There is no more inflation, but the peso only "slides"; there are no electoral frauds, but only "irregularities"; government workers don't steal, they only "deviate resources"; there is no birth control, only "demographic planning"; no more euthanasia, but "sweet dream"; and now there will be no abortion, but only "emergency contraception" or the "pill of the day after", which in reality is a chemical product that aborts new human beings recently conceived, the magazine denounced.
