Perfect! Very orwellian indeed! Let’s hope future generations aren’t left wondering why we didn’t stop socialism when we had a chance, especially in light of what we knew about Stalin...

George Orwell was a socialist until he saw how unwilling the leftists around him were to be critical of Stalinism.

It took Pete Seger over 40 years to admit to the horrors under Stalin.

Animal Farm and 1984 are about the USSR. They aren’t speculative fiction. They are allegory to what DID happen.

Now look at how the DNC and the media wing of The Party revise history as it suits them. Deny deny deny then do a 180. There is no "state run media" (like the rest of the world has) but one party DOES collude with the MSM editors to spin and break a number of stories. Now look at how that same party seeks to shackle the mouths of those who dissent from their talking points.
