But that’s the silver lining: we’ve never had more alternatives than now. Everything– technology platforms, financial institutions, and even our personal residence– it’s all replaceable. All of it.

Not really true though. Most of us are stuck in Techistan.

I did not imagine the left would use it as an instruction manual when I read it 40 years ago.

The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from the oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives. They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.”
― George Orwell, 1984

Amazon is out of stock on the cheap mass market paperback version of 1984. Either there has been a sudden interest in it or all copies have been sent back for revision and reprinting. Hope you have an old edition hidden.

Please watch and read the following.
The CDC, NIH, WHO have suppressed an effective early treatment of covid. You need to petition you governors to fix this. Ivermectin has been on the table since the first tests early this year from Australia. Dr Cory has testified before the Senate twice now. Also attached is latest from India and EVMS Dr Marik.

To the Goveners of this county, get your heads out of your ass and fix this... The people in DC will not.

If you can put this in front of your govener, please do so...

“That was a quote from George Orwell’s seminal work 1984 - a masterpiece that describes life in a totalitarian state that demands blind obedience.”

Was?

Is it no longer a quote from 1984?

Read the first couple chapters and you might finally decide it’s worth pulling your children out of public school where they teach children to nark on their parents.

“A message to anyone who feels like ‘Winston’ in Orwell’s 1984”

See my tagline.

I’m not giving up internet and not moving to Iceland. Any suggestions on how to handle the move from relative freedom to fascism?

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.”

Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
