More like George Orwell wrote the playbook.
Ah, I thought he was sounding an alarm. I didn’t think he advocated the things he wrote of.
I think a lot of liberals read dystopian books like “1984” and “Brave New World” and saw how-to manuals. For example, Brave New World says everyone belongs to everyone else, you can’t say no to sex or exclude anyone. Others take Harrison Bergernon as gospel. Handicap the smart and cover the pretty so no one is upset or feels less than.
