Except that neither grammar or spelling were criticized.

Essential Meaning of grammar
1: the set of rules that explain how words are used in a language

If someone said about your meme, "It are a duck," the statement would be grammatically incorrect but an accurate description. If however one said, "It is a pheasant," the statement would be grammatically correct but completely inaccurate.

There's difference between how a word is used and using the wrong word.

"Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen.

"the Behavioural Insights Team was established as a new psychological warfare node across the Five Eyes countries i.e. Australia, Canada, the USA, New Zealand, and Great Britain."

In a 2008 paper authored by Cass Sunstein and Adrian Vermeule, the authors write:
"the existence of both domestic and foreign conspiracy theories, we suggest, is no trivial matter, posing real risks to the government's antiterrorism policies, whatever the latter may be."

They then went on to list several steps government agencies could take to counter the growing threat of conspiracy theories:

"Government might ban conspiracy theorizing."

"Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories."

"Government might itself engage in counter speech, marshaling arguments to discredit conspiracy theories."

"Government might formally hire credible private parties to engage in counter speech."

"Government might engage in informal communication with such parties, encouraging them to help."

Thus, Sunstein and his cohorts have been responsible for the framing of conspiracy theories as existential threats to democracy and counter-terrorism, making very careful use of nudging and NLP practices to create powerful cognitive dissonances in the minds of anyone engaged in wrong think. Today, virtually all major public policy issues have in been "reframed" to nudge people into unconsciously making decisions that radically transform not only their lives, but the very makeup of society. Sunstein now serves in the Biden administration's Department of Homeland Security.
