9. Politicizing has been equated to criticizing
It's more framing by the right. For the short time I tuned into Sean Hannity's newscast last night, he labelled any Dem who has been critical of the relief efforts as someone who is "politicizing" - this demonizes the left and blocks our (correct) expressions of outrage.

They have completely co-opted the term politicizing so they can eliminate criticizing.

We are critical! We damn well should be critical! And this fiasco damn well DOES involve politics.
