“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.” ― George Orwell, 1984
“The past was erased...”
Maybe not erased, just buried in the confusion to use othe means of accomplishment, normally bad. The truth is there, but it takes a little work to find it sometimes. This is why the world has hiding places that most never know about. Some are even right out in the open.
