I am protesting the marketing fraud that was used to bring this legislation about.

I think you're lumping a bunch of things together. Code is a very specific thing. Euphemism is another thing. Then there's spin and marketing hype. And, of course, lying.

"Small stakes gambling" isn't code. No one is talking "small stakes gambling" when, withing their culture, they're really talking about playing card manufacture or showgirls.
