George Orwell = Eric Blair

Considering where we are, and where we're heading, it's a good time to ponder Orwell's 1984.

As in the 911 Commission Report. Mind control of the masses. State of the Union. Mesmerized serfs. Mis-directed emotional intensity, as in sports or American Idol. Anthems, Pledges, false patriotism, rivalries, pep rallies. BB IS WATCHING YOU. CUBICLES for the wage slaves. CUBES W's cube Total monitoring of email, phone, fax, keystroke logging, RFID tagging. NSA has access to every transaction. You must use newspeak. "The security in Iraq is improving." No private communication is possible. Surveillance via helicopter, aircraft, drone, satellite, cameras, ... No privacy is permitted by the state. 2 + 2 = whatever the mainstream media is told to say. BB IS ALWAYS WATCHING YOU. Artificial emergency - today's friend is tomorrow's foe... OFFICES IN CRISIS MODE. Frantic Winston can't work fast enough. Winston In the custody of the Police State. Surveillance in the cafe. BB IS WATCHING YOU. Grave Headstone
