Orwell wrote it, with the Soviet Union foremost in his mind, though he was informed about world politics, and certainly there's nothing wrong with the Russians that makes them innately any more totalitarian than any other group of people. McCarthyism in the USA followed soon after and that was equally terrifying in it's war against truth. He wrote it about the day he lived in, and recent history, with predictions where it might all end up going if it followed it's natural course. He set it in the country he knew, so he could get the little domestic details right, an Englishman writing about Russia wouldn't have been able to write an everyman as convincing, or as relatable to an English-speaking audience. If it was set in Russia it's Anglophone readers would have seen it as a criticism of Russians, rather than all humanity, and our modern societies, they wouldn't have related to it as a warning meant for them. For what it's worth, there are rumours that the Soviet political elite had a few translated copies produced, and kept for themselves (it was of course banned in the USSR). The rumours continue that Soviet leadership actually picked up a few tips from there, and actually did use it as a source of new ideas.
@@greenaum "McCarthyism in the USA followed soon after and that was equally terrifying in it's war against truth." Around 1950, the USA Communist Party started a campaign against "white chauvinism" within the Party. People were thrown out for trivial offenses, like serving watermelon for dessert when black people happened to be invited. (Which, BTW, actually did happen to Detroit firefighter Robert Pattinson in October 2017. He was fired for behavior deemed offensive and racially insensitive after bringing a watermelon to work on his first day on the job.) The left is now applying that standard only to everyone on their right.

Quit the business a year later, never looked back, but reading "1984" in 1983 and seeing what we could in those days already do with a handful of chips and some rudimentary desktop computers sure made me aware that "1984" was a manual and a soon to be reality.

I read 1984 while in college over 50 years ago and in the back of my mind i thought that this could never happen in the United States, but i almost couldn't wait for the year 1984 to get here to see if anything like that could actually happen. George was very close to some of his predictions, the only flaw in his predictions was he missed the date by about 30 years.
Technically, he didn't. Agenda 21 / The NWO has been in the works for nearly 170yrs. You just didn't know the indoctrination was happening. History was destroyed through distortion and fabrication from the 1850s to current day, and this is why there are so many idiots among us intellects. This is why people still believe Columbus discovered America when the country is literally named after Amerigo Vespucci, whom discovered it 4-10yrs before the supposed date of Columbus's discovery. Columbia was named after Columbus because...wait for it... that is the territory he discovered. Just because Columbia is an American territory doesn't mean he discovered America. In history books I grew up reading, it painted Andrew Jackson (founder of the DemoNcrat Party) as a war hero when, in reality, he was responsible for the near annihilation of the Arawak Tribe. Then there is the lies of "10s of thousands" of slaves packed onto one boat to transport them to America. Fact is... there were no boats being built at that time that could hold such a load. Not to mention the slaves that were transported here were those sold by Mansa Musa, but that's another topic within itself. Also, there were already "darker complected" people inhabiting the land we now know as America. Not many people know Abraham Lincoln was Native American, but they celebrate Obama as if he is unique. The list goes on... but you get the point. If anything, Orwell was slightly on par with timing in his writings/predictions, because they were happening under the noses of THE PEOPLE and behind THE VEIL of deceptive manipulation and propaganda targeted at accomplishing the NWO. The seeds were set, watered and nurtured, until they were able to make seedlings, and now they are passing their seed along to further the cycle of indoctrination. Unless the cycle is broken, somehow, someway, WE will continue the pattern until morons become the majority and DNC / RINO Turncoat politicians seize their opportunity to completely control us due to their own misdoings nearly two centuries in the making. SIDE-NOTE : Check out the book 'The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" by Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt. That's a great place to start connecting some dots. That's how my journey began over 20yrs ago as a teenage hacker with an obsession with knowledge and truth.
The Nazis of WWII and the Soviets who took over Ukraine at the turn of the century and onward, just to name two, did exactly what the fictional government of 1984 did (which was written in '48, just a handful of years right after WWII--literally Orwell's present). The Nazis and Soviets, and later the communist Chinese with the government's attempt at erasing one of the most important historical moments that is the Tienanmen square massacre, rewrote the present and the past to control the future. Today in America, the 1619 project and subtle but dangerous demoralization on college campuses are doing precisely what the Nazis, Soviets and communist Chinese did in the last century. People/society have always been predictable and yet every generation believes that the things they do have never been done before. This is the great lie that causes the terrible suffering we see repeated throughout history. And the scariest thing about repeating history: no one thinks they are repeating it. They are too caught up in their superficial agendas, or too caught up following the herd, that they have not the slightest clue that their actions make up the calm before the storm, the calm before the suffering. There are no predictions, and there never have been. Just sheep and the sacred few who actually have a soul and a heart to love others.

Now we just accept that its ok for somebody to be destroyed or canceled from society & social platforms just for using the wrong word no matter what the context is. Their careers are ruined.

Just say BLM and that suddenly justifies changing the name of anything or destroying anything that you can link in whatever tenuous way to white privilege or negative towards blacks.

Orwell and Huxley were both members of the "Baverian Society," a think-tank of modern philosophers and high-profile businessmen. Some call Orwell's work a prediction, others call it a warning. I call it a spoiler.
This video has nothing to do with what Orwell was writing about. He was writing about dictatorships which suppress freedom of thought (North Korea being the worst example today). This video shows trends which anyone in America is free to challenge.
The only thing Orwell got wrong was that he thought the state would force this upon us. We have voluntarily done it. The devices we use, the choices we make, will lead us down such a road if we can't get it together.
While that's mostly true, just remember that in a generation or two, these people will be running the State and making the laws. Then, what they are now doing voluntarily, will be mandated by the State, and it will no longer be voluntary.

@@smolder6366 Removing statues that immortalize traitors or bad people is not erasing them from history. Statues are meant to immortalize individuals. These statues belong in a museum not in a public space. You learn history from books and museums not statues. Not to mention those Confederate statues were erected during the early to mid 1900s and were not put up for history learning purposes. Also you acknowledge they were bad people yet you also want buildings to be named after those bad people? Why? You do realize places are only name after people to celebrate them, not for remembering history. I mean based on your logic Germany should have statues of Hitler and schools in Italy should be named after Mussolini because apparently they'll forget the atrocities these guys committed if they don't have statues of them in public and immortalize them.

@@YourPetSnake deciding to remove or hide the parts of history that make you uncomfortable is the biggest mistake and step towards an auth state that you can make.
@@YourPetSnake the saying goes something like this...”he who doesn’t know about history, is doomed to repeat it”. That’s why statues are important, to remind people of history. Good or bad, history is history, and we should never forget it, and always respect it. Think of it this way. Should Egypt, bulldoze every single pyramid down? Because, every single one of them, was built by slaves. I mean, why end with America, let’s go after every other country that was built with help from slaves.

Regardless of your opinion on Trump, or the Conservative movement as a whole, comparing people to Hitler should be "saved" for when it is actually warranted, when another person actually reaches that level of evil.

well georgie boy new since his family had links to slavery so it would figure he writes about freedom
Orwell wrote it, with the Soviet Union foremost in his mind, though he was informed about world politics, and certainly there's nothing wrong with the Russians that makes them innately any more totalitarian than any other group of people. McCarthyism in the USA followed soon after and that was equally terrifying in it's war against truth. He wrote it about the day he lived in, and recent history, with predictions where it might all end up going if it followed it's natural course.
He set it in the country he knew, so he could get the little domestic details right, an Englishman writing about Russia wouldn't have been able to write an everyman as convincing, or as relatable to an English-speaking audience. If it was set in Russia it's Anglophone readers would have seen it as a criticism of Russians, rather than all humanity, and our modern societies, they wouldn't have related to it as a warning meant for them.
For what it's worth, there are rumours that the Soviet political elite had a few translated copies produced, and kept for themselves (it was of course banned in the USSR). The rumours continue that Soviet leadership actually picked up a few tips from there, and actually did use it as a source of new ideas.

Each soul, a whisper in the cacophony of the gibbering masses, yearns for a breath-a breath now tethered to the cold machinery of commerce, metered out in monthly dues to the godlike corporations that reign supreme.

These perches, sky-high yet grounded in the mire of human folly, stand as the last bastions of status in a world where worth is measured not by the soul's light but by the shadow it casts upon the fetid pavement. The humble commie blocks, crumbling monuments to a bygone era of misguided equality, jostle for space amidst the steel spires of corporate deities.
The pantheon of these new gods, corporations of insurmountable power, demands worship in the silence of subjugation. History, once a tapestry of truth and valor, now weaves tales of deceit-tales where the great minds of the past, Newton, Maxwell, and countless others, find themselves reborn under the banner of the CCP. Their legacies hijacked, repurposed to serve the narrative of dominion, where the West kneels before the East in a mock parody of reverence.
And thus, the world turns, a carousel of stagnation, spinning endlessly towards a dusk that promises no dawn. The sun, indifferent to the plight of those below, marches towards its eventual extinction, a silent observer to the unchanging, unyielding reality of this dystopian doomsday.

History was destroyed through distortion and fabrication from the 1850s to current day, and this is why there are so many idiots among us intellects. This is why people still believe Columbus discovered America when the country is literally named after Amerigo Vespucci, whom discovered it 4-10yrs before the supposed date of Columbus's discovery. Columbia was named after Columbus because...wait for it... that is the territory he discovered. Just because Columbia is an American territory doesn't mean he discovered America. In history books I grew up reading, it painted Andrew Jackson (founder of the DemoNcrat Party) as a war hero when, in reality, he was responsible for the near annihilation of the Arawak Tribe. Then there is the lies of "10s of thousands" of slaves packed onto one boat to transport them to America. Fact is... there were no boats being built at that time that could hold such a load. Not to mention the slaves that were transported here were those sold by Mansa Musa, but that's another topic within itself. Also, there were already "darker complected" people inhabiting the land we now know as America. Not many people know Abraham Lincoln was Native American, but they celebrate Obama as if he is unique. The list goes on... but you get the point. If anything, Orwell was slightly on par with timing in his writings/predictions, because they were happening under the noses of THE PEOPLE and behind THE VEIL of deceptive manipulation and propaganda targeted at accomplishing the NWO. The seeds were set, watered and nurtured, until they were able to make seedlings, and now they are passing their seed along to further the cycle of indoctrination. Unless the cycle is broken, somehow, someway, WE will continue the pattern until morons become the majority and DNC / RINO Turncoat politicians seize their opportunity to completely control us due to their own misdoings nearly two centuries in the making.

Without Reagan it probably would have happened around then.

Orwell didn't predict the future. He just wrote about his present, and people throughout time just repeat the past.
he who controls the past, controls the future. who controls the present, controls the present.
*a prison cast over your eyes you no longer see*
Wrong. What’s happened over the last 12 months is not a repeat of the past. Orwell’s 1984 was a prediction; he just got the year wrong.
The Nazis of WWII and the Soviets who took over Ukraine at the turn of the century and onward, just to name two, did exactly what the fictional government of 1984 did (which was written in '48, just a handful of years right after WWII--literally Orwell's present). The Nazis and Soviets, and later the communist Chinese with the government's attempt at erasing one of the most important historical moments that is the Tienanmen square massacre, rewrote the present and the past to control the future. Today in America, the 1619 project and subtle but dangerous demoralization on college campuses are doing precisely what the Nazis, Soviets and communist Chinese did in the last century. People/society have always been predictable and yet every generation believes that the things they do have never been done before. This is the great lie that causes the terrible suffering we see repeated throughout history. And the scariest thing about repeating history: no one thinks they are repeating it. They are too caught up in their superficial agendas, or too caught up following the herd, that they have not the slightest clue that their actions make up the calm before the storm, the calm before the suffering. There are no predictions, and there never have been. Just sheep and the sacred few who actually have a soul and a heart to love others.
well he saw signs of it but predicted how it will become more blatant & normalized. Now we just accept that its ok for somebody to be destroyed or canceled from society & social platforms just for using the wrong word no matter what the context is. Their careers are ruined. Its never been this isane. Just say BLM and that suddenly justifies changing the name of anything or destroying anything that you can link in whatever tenuous way to white privilege or negative towards blacks.

The only thing Orwell got wrong was that he thought the state would force this upon us. We have voluntarily done it. The devices we use, the choices we make, will lead us down such a road if we can't get it together.
While that's mostly true, just remember that in a generation or two, these people will be running the State and making the laws. Then, what they are now doing voluntarily, will be mandated by the State, and it will no longer be voluntary.

I hope you're not talking about people removing statues that immortalize traitors (confederate leaders). As well as not naming your school or base after a man who was in favor of keeping people enslaved.
@@shalom5978 I hope you haven't forgotten this old saying "he who forgets history, is doomed to repeat it", they might have been horrible people, but their statues and names are a part of history, to erase them is foolish.
@@smolder6366 Removing statues that immortalize traitors or bad people is not erasing them from history. Statues are meant to immortalize individuals. These statues belong in a museum not in a public space. You learn history from books and museums not statues. Not to mention those Confederate statues were erected during the early to mid 1900s and were not put up for history learning purposes. Also you acknowledge they were bad people yet you also want buildings to be named after those bad people? Why? You do realize places are only name after people to celebrate them, not for remembering history.
I mean based on your logic Germany should have statues of Hitler and schools in Italy should be named after Mussolini because apparently they'll forget the atrocities these guys committed if they don't have statues of them in public and immortalize them.
👆The above comment is a very good example 🙂
Well yeah, who would have thought one day the hardcore Republicans would wave around with a confederate flag 🤣😂🤣😂. Talking about "every picture reprinted, every book rewritten"
"Every statue has been renamed" - It's worse than that! - Every statue has been pulled down.
What is so bad about a statue being pulled down?
@@chiefline7084 and if you can’t answer, you’re a dumbass
@@YourPetSnake deciding to remove or hide the parts of history that make you uncomfortable is the biggest mistake and step towards an auth state that you can make.
@Joe Mama why not put them in a museum then? why put it in a place where it is 'promoted'
@@YourPetSnake the saying goes something like this...”he who doesn’t know about history, is doomed to repeat it”. That’s why statues are important, to remind people of history. Good or bad, history is history, and we should never forget it, and always respect it. Think of it this way.
Should Egypt, bulldoze every single pyramid down? Because, every single one of them, was built by slaves. I mean, why end with America, let’s go after every other country that was built with help from slaves.
after reading George Orwell's essays id put my money on him being pissed that his works are being used to push an agenda like this one.
What?
ive been looking for this comment 😭😭
I've been warning about this since the 80's !! Everyone thought I was nuts !! Who's laughing now ??
No one
No one ever laughed at you...not one soul.
hitler was warning us since the 30's how about that
Ok take your pills dude
Wish you’d have shouted louder!
I used to live in the United States. They always said "It could never happen here." Guess what it did. Its going to get really bad. God Bless everyone.

Witnessing the bellwether of the global fight against communism itself succumbing to that pernicious religion is truly depressing. I may not have agreed with U.S. foreign policy on many an occasion, but, admirably, understood the evils of communism. Now, I hear, a fifth of U.S. youngsters view Marxism favourably.
“Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism, as I understand it." - George Orwell
And yet, democratic socialism also leads to totalitarianism.
It's not surprising, then, to find that the totalitarians will name themselves democratic socialists.
@@theeclectic2919 Good point. I only added the quote because I find it funny that conservatives always seem to want to co-opt George Orwell (like in this video), despite Orwell being a man of the far left until the day he died.
@@danielsteiman7589 the far left of 1939 is closer to the modern centre right than most left leaning parties.
@@softandwet7584 socially centre-right for modern times, yes, but still economically far-left.
Tell me you've never actually read 1984 without telling me you've never read 1984.
LITERALLY LMAOOO
"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face- forever." George Orwell, 1984
"I understand how, I do not understand why.."
"If there is hope, it lies in the Proles.."
- Winston Smith, 1984.
🚬👓...
True
spoiler for those who haven't read it...
...it didn't work out as the proles didn't care enough, leaving those who cared (like Winston) too few to make a difference, ending up utterly defeated. If we're not careful, we may all end up unwittingly bowing to the propaganda of CNN and the like. We need millions more like this brave young lady.
@@dhollsynthmusic
That’s the trouble, most people are fine with the media telling them how to think. Look how they were all ok with the cover ups and lies about Biden. Orwell looked to Descartes for Winston, “ I doubt, I think, therefore I am”. Yes Winston had a metaphorical death but look what he accomplished, he stood up to the enormity of O’Brien and Big Brother.
Interesting point, Rhonda, that despite the crippling defeat, Winston resisted once. It shows it's possible, and what might be possible if a million Winstons resisted.
@@dhollsynthmusic
If we ‘doubt’ and choose to ‘think’ rather than blindly follow like sheep, we will absolutely make the difference. It’s the only way. Don’t look to the proles, the media or to anyone. We must take responsibility and unite. Like you said, a million Winston’s.

Hearing things that are happening now and days sure does scream that the end of times is coming soon, Christ will take us up to the father in a blink of a eye. I just wonder what people will think or say when/if they ever realize that there is a God and that Christ Jesus is our Lord and Savior.
Amen were in the end times, lawlessness is getting normal
@@TheUniveralRoadie even when they see great signs many will still deny God and Jesus Christ.
@@yogrannyloveme124 That is true the Bible even says that they will still deny and curse God and Christ.
@Ice Cube so how much do you really believe the bible. The earth is immovable, or spins and goes around the sun?
The PragerU clip about Trump being worse than Hitler is appalling. My jaw literally dropped when she was like "He DiD tHaT?" Like are you serious? Hitler is damn near top of the list for worst people to ever live. Stalin, Mao, Himmler, Hitler, Kim Il Song/Jong Il/Jong Un, and Saddam, just to name a few. Just because "Orange man say mean things on interwebs" Does not equivalate him to people who literally committed mass genocide for no other reason than their race.
Regardless of your opinion on Trump, or the Conservative movement as a whole, comparing people to Hitler should be "saved" for when it is actually warranted, when another person actually reaches that level of evil. The story about the boy who cried wolf comes to mind.
Also, the young lady pressing the protesters in NYC was absolutely amazing to see. I'd never seen that before. Good on her.
"Ignorance is strength" always seemed like a stupid and self contradicting statement. I thought this for decades. Then 2020 happened and I saw the true strength of ignorance.
In the book, it mentions that people's Ignorance gives the one who controls you (including Big Brother) strength.
@Ice Cube Television and movies.

I was first exposed to Orwell in 1976 while living in Iran. Interesting that 35 years later I'm watching it happen in real time.
have you discord?
Sorry man 😔
“He did that?” Was that a college campus??? Wtf 😬
Yikes. 😟
@guacamole nigga penis Hitler is too offensive to learn about I guess
Yup just goes to prove some people are destined to ask "do you want fries with that" regardless of a college education
@@davebryan1890 Actually it is the other way around I think. It is why nothing is done correctly, they are hired into management or high level technical job because they have "a paper" that says they know what they are doing.

The dystopian future is upon us.
Im creeped out by this man's ability to tell the future, im thinking he's a time traveler now
No. He was just a clever man who saw how the world around him was changing. Also he was well-versed in Literature and History. That's all.
he looked what was happening in the soviet union and put it into a novel. history repeats itself
He was a whistleblower warning us
From the generation that saw the red menace and realised. It doesn't matter who or how, its the manners in which any authoritarian can undermine a society that is important.
Maybe it was all planned back then ?
Next quote on the list: “imagine a boot stomping on your face, forever.”
Ah, you've heard of police in Australia then.
@@OhSoddit in Australia too?
@@antenna_prolly Yeah. Victoria in particular. Even the RUSSIAN media were laughing about the way a pregnant woman was arrested, in front of her family, for nothing more than a Facebook post suggesting a (peaceful) protest about lockdowns would be a good idea. But that had nothing on a young woman being STRANGLED by police because she wasn't wearing a mask. I've remained pretty impartial to "opinions", but the draconian behaviour of 'authorities' does nothing to dispel conspiracy theories about 'the pandemic', and everything to support them :( It'll be a long time before Police are ever trusted by the community again.
I am surprised that Orwell has not yet been canceled. I thought his works would have been one of the first to go.
*it will be rewritten and revised to conform to the needs of the present and Wilson will be a transgendered musical atheist*
The Bible and Religion are next.
Just wait...
@@brandongonzalez9892 sure fucking hope it is
they probably don't want to bring attention to it.
I'm in sixth grade, and I read and comprehend on a higher level than my piers. I recently finished 1984 and I distinctly remember that the most horrifying part of it was the sheer accuracy of some of George Orwell's predictions.
Peers. Piers are for mooring boats.
@@mydogskips2 bro he just in 6th grade chill

1:11 "diverse edition of novels" Yeah, since when did diverse mean just black people? Thought it meant ALL races
i think its because white people are historically more included in books but I honestly don't really know
@@cornercutproductions6440 Yeah I can see what you mean. By diversifying they don
t mean that as making individual movie casts diverse, but making more black actors mainstream in the wider movie industry.
the term diverse literally now means MORE BLACK. Or all black. They dont want diversity they just demand more black faces. When its an all black anything they never ever talk of lack of diversity! The 13% now think they are the majority. Its the Obama effect it made them entitled beyond all reason.
@@floater7082 Their interpretation of diversity is one of that of colours. That of thought is consummate apostasy.
That's what I'm saying.
This is an excellent vid. When I read the book in high school back in the 70s, I got the shivers seeing the freedoms destroyed. I then asked, how did that country get that way? I am getting that answer today.
What are the answers your getting today?
@@cheat123 Really? You dont see how more and more of our freedoms are being wiped out? You really dont see how lies are portrait as truth? Just how old are you?
@@Joskemomim 31. no i dont see it. I dont see how this book and modern day are similar. I live in the US and overall as a society we push for more freedoms and we have democracy so its gonna be hard to get rid of freedoms. The only ones ive seen being taken away is our rights to privacy from the nsa and abortions in texas. Also they dont want trans people in sports or using the restroom the want. But nothing like the book. All im picturing while listening to the book (i listening to the audio book) is north korea. It fits it to a T.
@@cheat123 Well, you dont see it, I do. Nothing more else to say. I was about to ask if you read the book, but I see you did not, you had the audio version. That is another aspect of the different times we live in. I am 62, I read, reread, underlined and have reference. I really dont do the audio thing. Who is the 'they' that dont want trans people in sports you reference to? No, bio boys should not compete against women, that is a no brainer. No, I dont want men pretending to be women in the same bathrooms with girls. Oh, one more thing, I assumed you, like me, live in the US, dont know why you felt the need to say that. As for freedoms we push for, Pres Biden just issued a dictate that you must have something injected into your body------- how is that for freedoms we push for?
@@Joskemom and all this that you citeted equal the rise of a 1984 like society? one that tries to expand freedoms and liberties to people even if you dont like them? i know our current world seems scary to someone of your age but just cuz its scary or different doesnt mean its wrong or that were going to turn into the society in 1984. biden pushing vaccine mandates like all other vaccine mandates is a good thing. why do you think its not?
Remember the other day, a women was 'outed' by her own daughter for being a Trump supporter at the DC rally that turned ugly. That mother has since received death threats and lost her job. The daughter said she feels a little guilt over it but her mother needed to take ownership of her actions.... her actions were to support the party her daughter didn't approve of.
@Jor Dan truly. why draw the line at when an unwanted unloved being slides out the hole.
That is when you go old school. KICK HER ASS OUT !

Softcore dictatorship right there.

Emotions trump logic, and they will do anything to use your flaws against you

You’re such a sheep it’s not even funny.
