This extension replaces political doublespeak with plain English.
The web is now filled with political doublespeak--euphemisms intended to make undesirable actions seem anodyne. With this extension you can start turning the tide. Installing the app adds a button to your Chrome window that, when clicked, will open a duplicate of the current tab but with doublespeak replaced by realtalk.
Currently replaced terms (v0.2) include:
- adversary: anybody
- extrajudicial: illegal
- rendition: kidnapping
- post-truth: lying
- fake news: propaganda
- alt-right: white supremacist
Additions to this dictionary are welcome.

like it says. its not of much use with only 6 word replacements. why not let users add their own and then they can get submitted for review and addition to a master word list.
