In contemporary political discourse 'democracy' - to take a random example - is synonymous with western corporate oligarchies where people get to vote every four years or so on which faction's boot they want on their neck, or what the US brings to countries it destroys. But that doesn't mean it's not an egregious misuse of the term. Capitulating to the ideological system on the meaning of words is one way to make intelligent political discourse impossible.
