“Nuance”
In their world, nuance means verbiage and jargon and contextualization and all that other post-modern buzz.To make things plain is to be "black and white," and so they are not only disinclined to say what they're really on about, they are incapable. Their brains short-circuit when called upon to try it, but their mouths keep going all the while, and you get a gigantic pile of words that seem spilled out of a dictionary, waiting assembly. Anything deeper than a slogan, protest sign, or bumper sticker -- say, the philosophy behind them -- is going to be indecipherable if you donât have the mental decoder ring. -- Blog of the Nightfly
