“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

— George Orwell, 1984

1984 and Animal Farm were high school standards at one time.

They are probably banned now.

The "unpersoning" will ultimately end with anyone who dissents being unable to have a bank account, payment processor, and website.

Thank you for being the millionth poster to post that quote. I’m sure it will be completely toothless by November.

I never thought I would say this, and I’m still hesitant, but as far as National elections go, I can’t imagine a sane person supporting a Democrat in our current timeline.

The truth bears repeating. If you can't handle it that's hardly anyone else's problem but yours

One of the great mysteries ever is how Orwell was a socialist.

I will never understand it.

Found you:
quote:

A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious.

But it cannot survive treason from within.

An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city.

But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.

For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victim, and he wears their face and their garments and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.

He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.

A murderer is less to be feared. The traitor is the plague.

— Marcus Tullius Cicero, from a speech given to the Roman Senate, recorded in approximately 42 B.C. by Sallust.

Indeed, it is spot on.


And then after that one realizes that all they are is just another brick in the wall.

The left still thinks they are fighting those people when they ARE those people.

Dude, it's just like Orwell says: "signs signs everywhere the signs, do this, don't do that can you read the sign?"

You’re triggered and unfunny. The worst combination in America.
