Context:

Language is a tool. From our first grunts, whoops, and mutterings as Homo sapiens, we have used language to communicate - but also to persuade and control. In a world of growing complexity, uncertainty, and fractaled meaning, we still attempt to organize and find meaning through the expression of language.

Perceived meaning is often dependent on the language we use. With language we can misinform, but we can also use it to create order and stability.
