Newspeak, the fictional language in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, might be considered the simulacra of parrhesia.— America's Young Theologian
Like parrhesia, there seems to be a frankness to Newspeak as the language sought to remove shades of meaning leaving only dichotomous simplicity (which is easier for the state to manipulate).— America's Young Theologian
Unfortunately, much of our political language has more in common with Newspeak than parrhesia.— America's Young Theologian
Let's see if McCain can utilize parrhesia and call Obama a sexist during a debate if he in fact believes it to be true, or will he merely hide behind the Newspeak of his proxies?— America's Young Theologian
For further reading on parrhesia, see Michel Foucault's Parrhesia and the Crisis of Democratic Institutions.— America's Young Theologian
