Comrade, heat in the winter and hot water are bourgeois luxuries that we must be willing to sacrifice for the good of our beloved planet. As we advance to living like our ancestors hundreds of years ago, our descendants will be grateful to us as they shiver and stink.
Yes, that’s pretty much where all of us here are headed, and anyone not a member of the Inner Party.
