MoreGeorge Orwell is a pen name.
The real name, for the author of "1984", is Eric Blair.
Eric Blair joined the Fabian Socialist Society as a young man.
He dropped out of the Fabian Socialist Society years before he wrote "1984".
The Fabian Socialist Society was founded in 1884.
At their founding,
they made a prediction that they could accomplish their objectives
within 100 years.
When Eric Blair defected from the Fabian Socialist Society,
THEN he wrote "1984".
"1984" was written as an EXPOSE of what the Fabian Socialist Society was trying to do.
It is an INSIDER's expose' of reality.
It is not a fantasy.
Everything in "1984" is coming to pass.
Remember the slogan: "War is peace"?
It sounded ridiculous to me, when I first read it.
Now we have a United Nations "peace" army that is
out waging peace on almost a dozen nations.
Remember the slogan: "Freedom is Slavery"?
Now we have "liberal" programs and national "Liberation" movements
that are yelling "power to the people"
and building bigger and more powerful government in every way.
Remember the slogan: "Ignorance is Strength"?
Now is is called "plausable deniability".
How many times have we heard "I have no recollection of that"?
What about "thought criminals"?
Now we call them "cult members", "supremists", "anti--government",
and numerous other terms that refer to unauthorized thoughts.
"Politically correct" means that you are not a "thought criminal"
A "Hate Crime" is an ordinary crime; which is given FEDERAL jurisdiction,
and more severe penalty, because of the alleged THOUGHTS of the
defendent.
Who has the right to define such a term as "cult"?
If freedom of religion exists THERE IS NO ONE who
has authority to "approve" or "disapprove" of ANY religion.
"Cult member" is a modern word for what George Orwell called
a "thought criminal".
