YSK Manipulative language can serve as a tool for misleading the public, doing so not with falsehoods but rather the strategic use of language, such as replacing a disagreeable term (torture) with another (enhanced interrogation). People judged this as largely truthful and distinct from lies.

YSK操纵性语言可以作为误导公众的工具，这样做并不是以假乱真，而是有策略地使用语言，比如用另一个词(强化审讯)代替一个令人不快的词(酷刑)。人们判断这基本上是真实的，有别于谎言。
