[“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
George Orwell, 1984]
And here is ‘1984’ - in real time

Orwell was warning in his 2 classic books about Stalinism. Not life under Stalin in the USSR but Stalinists in the West who zealously supported Stalin in spite of the horrible things he was doing to his own people.
Yes, these are Stalinists we face today.
By any means necessary, truth benders and rule breakers.
Stalinists lie. Always
Yes, we live in very dangerous times. This is far worse than the prelude to Civil War # 1.
