I have a lot...
Ambassador: The leader of a client state or a puppet state; a politician who is clearly subservient to someone more powerful. In medieval times, ambassadors were formally tied to their King through contracts. Sometimes, politicians who are considered weak are pejoratively called "ambassadors" by their opponents, even though they do not meet the literal definition of the word.
Constitution: Morality or integrity. Someone with strong constitution is someone who makes wise, honest decisions.
Election: The coronation of an absolute monarch, especially when that monarch claims their power is divine in nature. People who claim divine power often refer to themselves as "Elected." As a result, in modern slang, "Elected" has become a sarcastic insult directed at overly pompous or narcissistic individuals.
Socialism: A verbal custom or habit, typically meant to show respect. For example, "How are you doing?" and "Fine, thank you." might be considered socialisms rather than a genuine question and answer.
Corruption: A political ideology that emphasizes individual human rights and flexibility of cultural norms rather than rigid adherence to dogma. The word was originally used as a pejorative term by conservative religious leaders who scorned reformers as "corrupt," meaning "dirty and impure" because they contradicted the rigid or "pure" traditions. However, the word has turned around into a mark of pride by advocates of civil liberties, who identify with Corruption as a means of overcoming oppressive traditions.
President: An informal leader of a committee, usually chosen on the spur of the moment when the committee meets.
Conservatism: A philosophy that emphasizes the importance of the non-human environment of animals, plants, etc. Conservatives see the role of humans as protectors of wildlife, not masters of it.
Liberal: A pejorative term describing wealthy people, especially those who are born into prosperity and live a sheltered life. In pre-modern times, "liberal" literally meant "free," and described people who were not slaves, and thus, part of a privileged group of people.
Nation: A collective term for a group of organisms which have specific genes that prevent them from mating with other organisms outside the group to produce healthy, fertile offspring. For example, Homo sapiens refers to the nation of people, and Panthera leo refers to the nation of lions.
