In 1949, George Orwell wrote the book "1984". The book is a commentary on the state of society in the 20th century, and it is often considered to be a classic work of dystopian fiction. It is a warning about the dangers of totalitarianism and the need for freedom and democracy. Turns out the book is pretty much the blueprint for how the modern world is run and it predicted all the current events. It talks about surveillance, censorship, and the need for a "Big Brother" to keep an eye on the populace. Orwell must have known about the use of propaganda to control the people, the government's ability to track and monitor them, and how the government can control the media and then control the thoughts of the people as consequence.
He did live in a time when the U.S. was just starting to get involved in the Cold War, and he was writing the book while Stalin was still in power. Was the real intention of the book to deceive and brainwash the masses into accepting government control? Was it predictive programming? Was it a psyop? Was Orwell a glownigger?
Imagine worshipping a word that no one is able to define and that changes its meaning every 5 years.

The Jungle is way more significant that this book. Everyone should read The Jungle. It completely changed the world and brought fat cat privatized business to its knees. Dystopia already happened and was stopped by The Jungle. Only in the next few decades will they be able to repeal all of the liberal restrictions put on big business and we will all be literal slaves to monopolies once again.

Orwell was tutored by Aldous Huxley, who had intimate knowledge of the plan, being a Fabian socialist.

We are, and have been for quite some time. Black Rock. Once a private “business” got control of the creation of capital, no other business matters.
Ryan Lee
Love that book
Jaxon Gonzalez
you have that backwards. Huxley was Orwell's stupid and was far more accurate (lsd is a curious chemical)

No. You’re wrong.
Aaron Price
We live in a world of self-fulfilling prophecy.
Michael Price
True to some extent but we still have OSHA and other workers rights. All that will be gone
John Hill
The Fabian socialists openly wrote about and gave speeches as to their plan. George Bernard Shaw can be found easily. Bertrand Russel. Annie Besant. HG Wells even wrote a book called Open Conspiracy.
Anthony Anderson
In the book there is also a perpetual war between the three powers in designated zones outside their control but close enough so you feel danger. I fear that Ukraine might be a permanent war place that benefits both the east and the west in their propaganda.
Luke Martin
So will worrying about it when everyone is a brain chipped automaton like the movie metropolis, which is also an open admission of the plan.
Jose Moore
I love that this book is free

Orwell was a big nosed homo pushed by the (jewish media), a member of the Fabian society and Big Brother (BB, 33).
Genocide your whole family, mental sanity war now.

right, this is the disturbing part about the coming embrace of conservatism. Time and again they just use idiots to discredit the left so that people will embrace right wing privatization and time and again we fall into weird social situations where the aristocrats dehumanize people and create unnecessary revolutions. Can we never get an elite with a little restraint of appetite?
It was how the future world was taught at Oxford and Cambridge. 1984 and Brave New World are the same book, basically. BNW uses drugs and 1984 uses pain to force the individual to comply.
Connor Gutierrez
Probably not. It’s been the same shit since Sumer.
Jaxson Cook
This fucking guy thinks OSHA is a benefit to him.
No. Entity. Of. The. State is your friend

>how the government can control the media and then control the thoughts of the people as consequence. it's how the media can control the government and both have been bought by the beneficiaries of fractional lending

The difference is that Huxley had a family who was actively funding the plan, and Orwell saw it at street level reality when he volunteered to fight as a commie in the Spanish civil war.
