semantic regime change
When the meaning of words shifts so drastically that reality itself starts to feel like a glitch. Usually driven by cultural agendas, internet discourse, or corporate rebranding.
Examples:
"First, 'disruption' meant innovation—now it means getting laid off. Another semantic regime change, baby."
"Remember when 'outside' meant nature and not just…vibes? Total semantic regime change."
See also: gaslighting, linguistic coup, reality distortion field
