I never thought that the elites would use 1984 as a how-to manual. :-(

Have they rewritten it yet to claim that the danger is not the state but individualism and non-conformity?

No rewrite is required. Leftists like Hillary think 1984 is a how-to manual instead of dire warning.

Lol, I was far more impressed she had listened to any of my husbandly blathering about constitutional rights and such!

She’s a good painter, but you’re a better reader:)

There is a book called “The Store” by James Patterson that will scare the ever livin you know what out of you. Pretty clear that it is his view on Amazon.

Unfortunately, Dhimmicraps know that 1984 hits too close to home.

They have priorities: making money, silencing conservatism.

That is not sarcasm. I mean that.

I'm not going to get too upset about Amazon publishing bogus copies of Animal Farm, as the book should have been in the public domain in this country long ago, and would be if we had sensible copyright laws. Our effectively eternal copyright is something that really should be changed, but given that we have the best government money can buy, it's not likely to happen.

I'd think the estate of George Orwell would be suing Amazon for violating their eternal copyright. That's a battle I'd like to see. Maybe an organization as large as Amazon could lobby for reforming copyright law in America as something that is in its own best interest.
