Contextualiar Pronunciation: /kənˈtɛks.tʃuˌlɑr/ (kun-TEK-styoo-lar) Part of Speech: Noun
Definition: A person who takes factual information out of its original context and strategically places it within a different context to create a misleading impression or argument. A contextualiar often uses this tactic to falsely make the original source appear to support views or agendas it never intended to. This manipulation distorts both intent and message, often fueling misinformation against Black Americans or their leaders. Synonyms: misrepresenter, distorter, context manipulator.
Example: The contextualiar quoted a Black activist’s words about unity in a way that falsely suggested support for a divisive policy.
