1984 is a cautionary tale against the political institution the liberals want to establish

Based except they're fake liberals. The people who are in favor of the covid oppression where its illegal to stand next to somebody, assemble, eat dinner, go to concerts, etc. don't give a shit about liberty. They are morally driven much more by harm reduction - the well-intentioned ones anyway. Some of them are just cunts.

1984 is about intellectuals who fashion themselves to be free-thinkers and professors of truth, but are actually conformist slaves to power.

Reminder that the book was originally going to be called 1948. 1947 is when the CIA began.

Bruh i literally live in a totalitarian state so oppressive that 1984 is more historically accurate about it than its history books

Orwells masterpiece is a poignant work that is descriptive and critical of totalitarian governments ... but I think westerners are ignorantly misusing it in order to prove the downfall of their political opponent-a discourse that is never allowed to even take place in totalitarian governments-.
