How quickly time flies when you are distracted by shiny things.

[ExomatrixTV]

One of the most important theme in George Orwell's "1984" (Totalitarianism) is that new generations of people born, do not know nor have access to their true (unedited) version of their history and thus not be able to learn why and how they are in an abusive (totalitarian) system that they are!

They are even pushed to hate anyone exposing that issue.

Very similar how the Chinese see themselves and how they are conditioned how to behave ... Needless to say that Western Cultures are also pushed in that direction 24/7.

It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok …

[Socrates] And if there were a contest, and he had to compete in measuring the shadows with the
prisoners who had never moved out of the cave, while his sight was still weak, and before his
eyes had become steady (and the time which would be needed to acquire this new habit of sight
might be very considerable) would he not be ridiculous? Men would say of him that up he went
and down he came without his eyes; and that it was better not even to think of ascending; and if
any one tried to loose another and lead him up to the light, let them only catch the offender, and
they would put him to death.

How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will - Don Mclean

Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?

Totalitarianism has always been around, the only difference now is how uncomfortably obvious it is for anyone paying attention.

[Mike Gorman]

Eric Blair captured the true source of political power: total control over language and history. All we have as sentient beings is our communication skills, language is the absolute 'stuff' of thought, if you control this you have everything. A human face being stamped on forever, we have been witnessing this since 2020, it has always been with us, but these past 2 years have revealed their game plan.

See those over there? They aren't like us...

Totalitarianism is the preverbal Hydra.
What is the worst about totalitarianism? All encompassing in that just because there are no traditional walls doesn’t mean it’s not a prison. Prison of physical walls, they are but an example of ‘prison’. In totalitarianism the fair question:: Is any of this free will/ choice in the pure sense of the word.
How much control does totalitarianism have in life (mine)? Shuddering to think. Once I believed all the thoughts in my head were my own, the short answer is that is or has been a lie. Think of all that programming that went in from the beginning. Later from school, books, TV, friends, family, church etc. etc.
Did I go too far with it? At the very least, that is or would be its full expression. Total control.

Is there hope for those trapped in a totalitarianism society? I’d like to think so.
Even so, look around, there is beauty everywhere. Just have to know how to see.
A vision I have of totalitarianism ideology is in that it is a human phenomenon, a speck in the galaxy. Nothing really to speak of in the course of universal history.

I used to reread that classic every 5 years. The movie with John Hurt was an excellent depiction also imo.

I saw one of "Awaken with JP" videos some time ago and remember a tee shirt he was wearing (the comedian also did an amazing job as emcee to the anti-mandate rally in DC with RKF Jr last January):

For those who like a bit of numerology, the sum of 1984 (1+9+8+4) is 22.

Also, whenever Winston appears in front of a telescreen, he is referred to as "6079 Smith W". The sum of 6079 (6+7+9) is 22.

I find it very funny how it turned out to be "the manual" instead of "the deterrence" book

Oh no... now i made myself sad....

Sorry, nothing really insightful to offer, but this quote “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” almost seems like it could have been written with the whole plandemic, "follow the science" narrative in mind.

That's just what it is, actually
