Did you know Orwell embraced democratic socialism?

Well read on..

The author comes out of academia and is obviously a leftist, which becomes obvious as you read his article.

[Sans-Culotte]

He was also a guy with TB who smoked. Some cognitive dissonance was going on with that guy.

Orwell was right on the HOW totalitarian ideologues would operate, but he was wrong on who they would be, because who they are are exactly the ones spouting ideas Orwell was inclined towards - “democratic” socialists.

It seems to turn out that democratic Socialism is oppression of the total totalitarianism type.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

My tag line…

[mjp]

The totalitarian idea that there is no such thing as law, there is only power

This is Big Brother speaking:

newspeak is now the official language of New America, because it has been devised by the Ministry of Truth to meet the ideological needs of NAMSOC, or New America socialism. So, be good little slaves and obey the thought police, because if you commit a thoughtcrime by opposing groupthink, you will be punished.

I am watching you!
