    Y'all do realize that what Orwell wrote 71 years ago is literally not that far from reality we're living in? It just struck me recently when I saw a feminist post about words such as chairman and manhole which need to be replaced with new words and then some Texas hotel which decided to stop using the term "master bedroom" because it sounds racist etc... Everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about, y'all have seen s*** like this left and right. I gave two examples but there are thousands out there.
    NEWSPEAK IT IS!
    What about doublethink, thoughtcrime? Check, check. If you think deeply about this you will realize that doublethink is present and we are being forced to doublethink because if we don't then we have commited thoughtcrime and we could be denounced easily. ORWELL KNEW IT!

    Have you noticed people denouncing their parents recently on social media? Because I did, tons of videos. It just happened to be written 7 decades ago in a book called "1984" (turns out Orwell should've named it "2020") and it clearly depicts scenes where children as young as 13 denounce their parents for thoughtcrime.
    Now the only thing left is for you to accept the harsh reality.

    One day, Big Brother will be watching all of us

    read another book fam.

    chairman, policeman, businessman changes make sense because gone are the days where only men would have such roles. it’s just logical to say things like police officer or businessperson etc.

    the master bedroom thing is mostly pandering. businesses have found a new way to look they’re doing something big meanwhile they’re doing nothing.

    black people didn’t ask for this btw but you’re white so i don’t think you’d understand completely.

    Saying "chair" instead of "chairman" makes sense?

    Also I'm not white lol

    And you decided to avoid thoughtcrime and doublethink cause you know you have no counter-arguments

    I’m pretty sure “chair” was in use long before already. Chairperson is also a thing...

    this thread sucks lol

    currentaffairs.org/2018/11/dystopia-in-fiction-and-in-fact

    I don't agree with Nathan Robinson on quite a bit but he makes good points here. This whole idea that we're living in some 1984 type society or even close or that orwell predicted s*** is just fantasy. It's a f***ing fiction book lmao. its like when liberals quote harry potter or some s***. get over it, and maybe read some actual theory if you want to read to gain a better understanding of whats going on in the world today
