Most people are not aware of the gravity of EVIL that is about to happen in America, then the world.

When I post that sentence outside here, say on newspaper sites or other left leaning I get laughter and serious anger. Anger that I’m a racist, don’t care about others, don’t know about science, on and on.

And if the media says that "masks do not hinder breathing" then do they hinder breathing?

What is that, I forget. A “news” (brainwashing) site?

Commies hate Orwell... I doubt he’s taught in any public school.

Quotes from the book "1984" that are Here/Now.

The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next generation. Abraham Lincoln

Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the power of our enemies, but by the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching the nation’s children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating artificial stupidity.

Franco wasn’t fascist enough? Some of these people think Ted Wheeler is a fascist.

Do high schools still teach Orwell?

I have no idea, but the principles found in his writings seem to be SOP.

When we are careening down the final road, reading the Burma-Shave like signs that say:

You should

have read

the Book.

then perhaps we'll remember Kathy Bates' question:

You girls wanna buy a squirrel? They make crackerjack pets!
