[quote]Thoughts and prayers - Urban Dictionary:

[quote]In our time, political speech and writing are largely the
defence of the indefensible … Thus 😈 political language
has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer
cloudy vagueness … the great enemy of clear language is
insincerity. Where there is a gap between one's real and one's
declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words
and exhausted idioms, ...
The writer Edward S. Herman cited what he saw as examples of
doublespeak and doublethink in modern society[sup][8][/sup]
Herman describes in his book Beyond Hypocrisy the principal
characteristics of doublespeak:
What is really important in the world of doublespeak is the
ability to lie, whether knowingly or unconsciously, and to get
away with it; and the ability to use lies and choose and shape
facts selectively, blocking out those that don’t fit an agenda
or program.[sup][9][/sup][/quote]

politicians bring up virtue signalling euphemisms like "Thoughts
and Prayers":
