THAT is an amazing picture, AND a great title for this.

Yes, it was anti-utopian at its finest and in that vein was a warning, not a manual for thought police. Unfortunately, we see Orwell all over.

I was just an hour or so ago on Twitter and some person put “There is no censorship in America”. I was on so many threads I’m not sure now which this one was on but I’m sure it had to do with Musk and Twitter. I definitely responded to THAT persons ludicrous statement with essentially “you must be living under a rock if you think that.” I think I mentioned examples of doctors being censored. It’s so hard to learn to Tweet tiny little fragments of truth.

I have a t-shirt that says "1984 was not supposed to be an instruction manual." Amazing how dystopian we've become in just a few short years!

Yep and the ministry of health (medical education system, pharma, and regulatory bodies) are the biggest liars who push doublespeak and doublecures and doublecauses.

Polio, caused by pesticides, blamed on a made up virus, which got vaccines, which came out after the huge declines. Side effects of the vaccine causing polio was called guillane barre, traverse myelitis, etc. Typical fraud, make up more diseases.

Smallpox, caused by sanitation issues, blamed on a made up pathogen, which got it's own shitty treatments

Spanish flu, which was probably caused by medical treatments at the time, was blamed on a pathogen that couldn't even be shown to be TRANSMISSIBLE

Make 1984 fiction again

Thanks for showing how big the pushback is over there.

I believe that the story of fascism is still fresh in the minds of those in Eastern Europe -- as horror-stories passed down from grandma and grandpa keep the public at least semi-conscious of the horribleness. People who have a better understanding of history or more unlikely to stand by while it gets repeated.

We live in an era of 1984 politics, combined with a brave new world endgame actively unfolding.

These two books speak volumes to the moment in which we find ourselves.

( I have both audiobooks free on my homepage at https://NoSearch.org , at the bottom )

Gee, have you seen this...so much censorship everywhere........"With a new Amazon worker app designed to ban words like “Union,” “Restrooms,” and “Pay Raise” – do we need to re-evaluate just how low we think Amazon will go?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CABot4-HBXQ&list=TLPQMTcwNDIwMjIdgy52uWw-qA&index=2
