"“Paging George Orwell”

George Orwell is currently unavailable. However if you check his Wikipedia page it is clear that he is was a socialist and would be perfectly happy with democrats & etc. Carry on.,

Oh good grief. I was simply making a reference to "1984" wherein the government controlled media fabricated stories from the war front: e.g. "We are not at war with Eurasia."

Perhaps if you read more than Orwell's Wiki page, you would realize that.

Yeah.... do you not see any similarity between that & my post about his Wikipedia page?

Oh well never mind.

“George Orwell is currently unavailable” - I thought that precluded the need for a sarc tag. Tip: you can assume people around here understand a general George Orwell/1984 reference.
