Burke QQC


Quote: " Do we simply use words, or do they not also use us? An "ideology" is like a God coming down to earth, where it will inhabit a place pervaded by its presence." 

Question: To what degree do you think that words are considered "brainwashers"? Is there sometimes a line that is being crossed between using words for proper persuasion and using words to"use" others as Burke puts it?

  1. I think words can be "brainwashers" when people are trying to manipulate someone else to do a certain task. I also believe that there is always a line that can be crossed. People sometimes tend to go beyond their boundaries and say words that they really should not say, especially to certain people.
