It is FUCKIN' ASTONISHING the widespread acceptance of governmental oversight thus intrusion into individual affairs, compounded by equally widespread tolerance of bureaucratic and crony-corporate censorship thus manipulation of information political, economical, social, environmental, medical and exhaustively more, and exasperated by widespread indulgence towards initial covetousness thus consequential presumption then eventual arrogance...
"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed -if all records told the same tale — then the lie passed into history and became truth."
Passage found in Chapter 3 of the book 1984 by George Orwell (1903-1950), earlier in Chapter 2...
"The three slogans on the white face of the Ministry of Truth came back to him: WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. On coins, on stamps, on the covers of books, on banners, on posters, and on the wrappings of a cigarette Packet — everywhere. Always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, working or eating, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or in bed — no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimetres inside your skull."
Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
