We've all seen these faggot yard signs. Liberals love to use these type of phrases like "black lives matter" which carry underlying assumptions and have secondary meanings.

For example with "black lives matter" - any reasonable person agrees with the phrase's literal denotation. But agreeing with the phrase functions more like agreement to their narrative of blacks being oppressed by evil whites and being massacred by white supremacist cops and all that. But if you refuse to agree with the phrase, then it's seen as if you disagree with the phrase's actual denotation and therefore literally want to kill black people or whatever.

Another example is the "Nazis are bad/punch a nazi" thing. The literal meaning seems fine to most people, but they also see anyone to the right of Bernie as a Nazi and using those phrases supports that view. But disagreeing implies you're in favor of actual nazis.

Is there a good word to use to describe these phrases/tactics?
