We are living in Orwell's 1984

Posted July 29, 2019 1:00 am

How do you know when you are living in a free society? Are you allowed to speak the obvious truth in public? Or are you forced to lie. We are living in George Orwell's 1984. These words come from an article "Woke Fascism."

Yes, fascism will come with a smile, and a gentle prodding for you to accept lies as truth. It will come with a myriad rules and regulations and laws telling you how to live, work, play and think.

This is political correctness brought to you by our progressive friends - not by the right (those nasty conservatives) but by those on the left (the kind, gentle progressives). Where the PC police are the social media conglomerates. Progressivism and Socialism lead to totalitarianism. This is never more evident than today. We are living in George Orwell's fascist 1984 right here in the USA.
