next line hyphen
A method to differentiate a dash placed at the end of a line to indicate that a word has been separated into two parts because it did not fit on a line, from a hyphen inserted between two or more words, such as "hands-on", "brother-in-law", or "state-of-the-art".
It is best to differentiate a dash placed at the end of a line to indicate that a word has been separated into two parts because it did not fit on a line, from a hyphen in a compound word such as "hands-on".
A "compound word" is comprised of two or more words and has a hyphen between each word.
If a line ends in "able-" and the next line says "bodied", readers automatically interpret "able", followed by "body", to mean "ablebodied". Most people do not remember that the correct way to write "ablebodied" is with a hyphen (able-bodied). I call this method to differentiate dashes from hyphens the "next line hyphen".
If the last word on a line of text says "for-", and the first word of the next line says "profit", the logical way to interpret the dash is as being a dash, though in reality, the writer means “for-profit”, not “forprofit”.

truth and reality war
Because each individual comes to believe the things he or she believes as a result of his or her experiences, different individuals will always have certain beliefs which are from different to opposite the beliefs others have, and at different times will need to fight in the "truth and reality war."
Beliefs are thoughts linked to an emotion.

Reality War
The war fought in a series of ongoing battles between society's most powerful entities as they endeavor to convince as many people as possible to accept their version of reality and think, feel, and act accordingly.
Reality is essentially what is accepted as existing, in other words, "what is." To convince others to believe that reality is what they say it is, religious organizations, governments, corporations, mass media outlets, universities, writers, intellectuals, artists, musicians, singers and other performers, scientists, and the masses all engage in the Reality War in as best their money and other resources permit.
There are personal, past, present, proposed, debunked, fraudulent, altruistic, positive, negative, imagined, factual, fictitious, and many other types of realities.
Some realities are more extensive and complex, and it is generally impossible to conclusively prove whether a reality is true or false.
The first reality to exist was and is the Original Reality and those who believe God created everything accept it as the one true reality, undistorted by the now almost ubiquitous overt, covert, or subliminal messages to the contrary.

information deprivation
Hiding or depriving individuals or groups of people of facts to keep them ignorant and powerless. Individuals and organizations do that to protect themselves, to monopolize power, or to more easily take advantage of others.
I think it's safe to say that at some point and to varying degrees everybody practices information deprivation against those they interact with in order to trick them.

positive or negative
They met Saturday. The man complimented her beautiful face telling her her features were those of classic greek or italian women. She thanked each time he found a different way to say that and did everything within her power to create the most positive first impression by speaking perfectly and looking at him lovingly, which he also complimented her on. When by coincidence her mother, father, and brother entered the supermarket, they saw her talking with the man at a table in the eating area and said hello to the girl but did not approach them. Seeing how unattractive the members of her family initially looked to him turned him off, but over the weekend he fell in love with her, and Monday he realized that he considered external appearances unimportant, and that—thinking twice—the members of the girls family were also unpretentious. So, in time he got to know them and like them. Seeing they were poor, a few weeks later, he invited them to be partners in a new childcare business.
Though most people generally agree on what is positive and what is negative, one individual may interpret a thing to be positive, and a different individual may interpret it to be negative. Do you consider that chain of events to be positive or negative?
