Everything you need to know about what’s happening in North Korea, China, United States, and now in Canada and Russia.
It’s all there: the lies, political propaganda, doublespeak, doublethink, Big Brother, the pigs, the guard dogs, the dictators, totalitarian, autocracy, fascism, media manipulation, mass public mind control, repression of individualism, abuse, torture, destruction of democracy, history, and autonomous thought, bottomless corruption, and nasty, greedy evil.
Orwell was the most prophetic author of the twentieth century. His themes and criticisms are more relevant than ever today.
Some quotes to remember:
“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.'”
“Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters inside your skull.”
“Orthodoxy means not thinking–not needing to think.”
“Ignorance is strength.”
“The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world. Lies will pass into history.”
“In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
“Myths which were believed in tended to become true.”
“All issues are political issues.”
“Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.”
“Power is tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.”
“The power is not a means; it is an end….The object of power is power.”
“Big Brother is watching you.”
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stomping on a human face–forever.”
Right again, George.
