The essence of (misnamed) “Progressives”... you are to be forced to assert as TRUE what you know is FALSE... or be punished!
Such is the long bloody history of the tyrant mind... who cares little if you actually believe the LIES, only that you submissively assert them true... for then you are conquered. #Brainwashing
“Progressives” are using Newspeak. Guess 1984 was a warning about our future.
If the Party declares two plus two equals five, who are we to question it?
Exactly. With time, more power, and tighter control over media to change our perception of reality, we who cling to truth and reality can reasonably expect to hear that among the ranks of 'progressives' are those who are no longer mere humans. They have transcended mere humanity and duality (male and female) and are now androgynous gods and goddesses to which mere humans must bend the knee in worship.
