1984, Redux – Redux
Posted on May 29, 2014 by MalloyProducer • 5 Comments
An Overused Analogy?


In yet another example of the prescience of George Orwell, the US House recently approved the latest version of doublethink.

It is named the USA Freedom Act. This newest destruction of the right to privacy allows domestic intelligence agencies to continue sucking up all the available meta-data in a region, city, state or several states using the same court order.

In other words – not Orwellian, by the way – the bill continues to authorize massive un-targeted surveillance of, well, everything and everybody.

The totalitarian behavior exposed and confirmed by NSA contractor Ed Snowden has not changed – it just has a new title. This is, of course, a perfect example of Newspeak, language devised in Orwell’s 1984 to meet the ideological needs of the ruling party.

Representative Rush Holt – the New Jersey Democrat reacted with, yes, a tweet! He wrote, “How could anyone support a bill that doesn’t require probable cause to spy on Americans.?”

Mr. Holt was either being suspiciously naive or showing he has learned to keep his resistance to totalitarianism within the 140 character limit required by his Twitter account.

And wasn’t that brevity of language another requirement of Newspeak? To reduce the English language to the fewest words possible?. Removing words removes ways to define anti-ruling-class feelings and the ability to disagree. For example the word survelliance can be replaced by the word watchful. Neat, yes?

This newest example of creeping fascism also allows the NSA to pry into communications of an individual simply because that person and a sjuspected terrorist both made a phone order at the same pizza delivery joint.

So, I wonder how soon before an official Hate Week is announced. We’re close to it now with the constant official condemnation of, for example, homosexuality and marriage equality.

Or Thought Crime. Are our private conversations not Orwellian examples of Thought Crime if they are critical of the ruling class or question the actions of those in power and are discovered in massive sweeps of phone calls and emails?



Using George Orwell’s novel 1984 – or for that matter his Animal Farm – is often said to be the easy way of pointing out the fascist political movement occurring in this country on a seemingly daily basis. Just as using Nazism to describe the actions of George Bush and Dick Cheney gets tiresome after awhile. But, if these references are in fact true – and is there any argument that they are not? – then using them is proper and a clear warning of what is to come.

Hoping that everyone is well!

Does anyone remember my mentioning Sheeba, the wolfbrid, who'd been to my house a few times and had her tongue in my mouth the first time that I met her, and a couple of times in between? She was genetically tested at 80% wolf, she has passed.

However her male human is our go to guy for snakes that we have around here that we can't quite identify, as some baby snakes don't look like the adults. Hubby and the oldest son had a baby snake in the net that we use to skim things out of the pool, and baby snake was on the pool deck. Turns out baby snake was a baby rattler, and he just brought us a juvenile king snake. We used to have king snakes living under the house, loved them as they will kill and eat all of the venomous snakes in TN.

We kinda sorta have a new independent pet? :lol:
