Agreed. Words have a symbolic value in human interaction, and some words are more charged than others. The use of words such as "apartheid", "fascism", "democracy", "Western" in certain contexts is only meant to describe whether something is "good" or "evil" and can have very little or nothing at all to do with the original, true definitions of the word.
