Orwell’s Newspeak Is Coming To A Campus Near You
The Daily Caller ^ | 08/29/15 | Scott Greer

Posted on 08/30/2015 9:28:57 AM PDT by Enlightened1

In George Orwell’s “1984,” the fictional Oceania government imposed a truncated English upon its people. The purpose of the new language, termed Newspeak, was to help the regime in its effort to eliminate thoughtcrime.

“The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world-view and mental habits proper to the devotees of IngSoc [the state ideology of Oceania], but to make all other modes of thought impossible,” Orwell said.

But now Newspeak is transforming from fantasy to reality at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. The taxpayer-funded university recently issued a new guideline for students on how to be more “inclusive” in their choice of gender pronouns.

As Fox News’s Todd Starnes reported, traditional pronouns like “he” and “she” will no longer cut it at UTK. Instead, collegians should use the “dozen” gender-neutral pronouns, according to the school’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion.

So now the words “he” and “she” are offensive on collge campuses? How long until they merge the bathrooms?

This is Cult like behavior.

No one should ever tolerate anyone that says what you “can” and “cannot” say.

Orwell didn’t actually make it up.

See: “Reign of Terror” in France under Robespierre

Liberal professors think “1984” is a roadmap.

On and on and on...

There is an entire generation of dysfunctional sheep being brainwashed with this communist crap.

They will fail at life.

When they are totally controlled, classified and pigeonholed but hitting their 40s to 50s and realizing their dire state, they will be frustrated to despair.

Their miserable worthlessness will be absolutely identified by their children whom will reject and denounce them for their lack of will and utter stupidity.

The growing conservative contingent in this nation will become their economic and employment masters simply by natural selection through obvious conservative ability to produce profitable results.

Orwell’s Newspeak Is Coming To A Campus Near You

Coming to a campus near you? It originates in a campus near you. Except for the hard sciences and engineering departments, most universities are completely detached from reality, and most of the PC culture we see in the US today comes from the minds of tenured professors and their acolytes wasting their parents' and taxpayers money in liberal arts majors.
