Having put some distance in between us and the WTS, I can't read any of the Society's publications without feeling extremely uncomfortable and irritated by the tone and language that the Society uses.
It all sounds the same - patronising, guilt-inducing, condescending, intellectually unchallenging, etc.
As far as I'm aware the term is 'Watchtower Speak'.
Do you have a pet name for it?
What's your name for 'Watchtower Speak'?

It's a kind of jargon meant to show who is an insider and who isn't. It changes somewhat over time, to identify people like me who have been out for a long time. What's the word - shibboleth?

How 'bout "dublish" as in "Hey, does anyone here speak Dublish?"
