it's time to take back America through any means necessary. whether those means mean pressuring Facebook to censor Democrats or passing laws regulating Facebook Twitter and the media. The media is not more important than our country. letting fake news say whatever they want is not a more important right then our freedom. And you're going to have to choose whose side you're on. are you more concerned with big corporations being able to do anything they want or you more concerned with Patriotismm

We're approaching a point in history where we may need to do EVERYTHING to take the country back from the Marxists. Which is tragic, to be honest. It shouldn't come to this, but the song of global Communism is picking up, and we are approaching a moment where momentum may shift against us. We must hope that, as seems to always happen, a silent majority chooses reason over feelings, and rejects this latest Marxist push. For otherwise, I fear that we will no longer talk about "THE Civil War" but "The First Civil War" and "The Second Civil War" and I really, truly, hope against hope that it doesn't come to that. Unlike the lefties, truly don't wish the political opposition any harm. I wish them political defeat, and I wish the economy does so well that their foolishness is exposed. But I fear the worst may be in store in the coming years.

truly don't wish the political opposition any harm.

The political opposition would put you in a concentration camp, today, only because you're white.

It's not a debate against different economic systems anymore, socialism or free market.

It's a debate on whether white people should exist as free men with dignity, or whether white men should be enslaved or exterminated. They want to "eradicate racism" and they claim white people are intrinsically racist, including babies. Connect the dots.

Somehow the "I" got deleted or missed in there, it should have said, "Unlike the lefties, I don't wish the political opposition any harm. I know that they wish me harm, I just wish them sanity. Most of them are truly mentally ill. And instead of treating the illness, they've just been told their insane fantasies are fine or they are pilled up beyond belief.

Yes the "I" was implicit in my quote, I got what you meant.

But you're wrong. Being a conservative starts from recognizing the personal responsibility of those who do or wish us harm.

How does one pressure a social media outlet? They are a private business and can do what they want. Including inciting violence, lying, promoting fear. They hold all the power. The FCC is a joke. No politician, other than one or two, has ever or will ever voice negativity towards social media platforms. We’ve been outsmarted and no one has the balls to fight them. Republicans suffer from nutlessness. Always has. I remember my dad telling me in the early 70’s, “the Democrats are ruthless, and the republicans are spineless.”

1984 is way more bleak

Call me a starry-eyed optimist, but I got the impression -- long after reading it -- that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. All through the story the Party is shown to be fallible, and the epilogue about Newspeak talks about the Party's language, and the Party itself, as if it's something from the distant past. The final implementation of Newspeak was planned for 2050... but, as the text implied, this never happened. The epilogue itself is written in standard English and makes all its observations from the perspective of standard English, even referencing documents that the Party would have never allowed people to read. The implication was that the Party and Oceania were eventually defeated and a non-totalitarian society restored.

1984 and Atlas Shrugged are the two most important dystopian novels to read. For the latter, even if you're far left and you're going to hate it, it still shows you where you stand.

marvinthehaggler 3 points ago +3 / -0

Yes.

And I would add "Anthem" by Ayn Rand, and "The Fountainhead". Anthem is short, so perhaps more approachable.

"Brave New World" and "A Clockwork Orange" are also visions of the future that are related, here. All of these authors are along the same lines.

CuomoisaMassMurderer 20 points ago +21 / -1

You can also watch the movie. It is wrongly understood as a prediction about the future. It was a veiled, surreal depiction of the author's present, to make it past the censors.

The idea is (English) society is manipulated, so that words completely change their meaning; newspeak.

Wrongthink was punished.

People were monitored through their TV sets.

And "everyone knows what's in room 101," my second favorite line from the movie. It depicts a living hell, and that's not even a spoiler. My favorite line comes at the end of a diatribe:

(their system) "is a boot to the face of mankind, forever."

This refers to what we now call globalism or DS. It's spot on. Our founders understood this, and created the Constitution to LIMIT the power of government.

Worth killing for!

Art-Vandelay41 10 points ago +10 / -0

I will definitely put the movie on my list!

As far as the progressive movement and globalism, I think the pendulum has swung too far. They keep pushing and pushing and pushing. We’ll see if I’m right on November 3rd, but I think the pendulum is about to swing back, hard. The majority of Americans are about to openly and passionately love their freedom again.

In 1984 you’re supposed to believe what the ruling class says even if it doesn’t make logical sense (Otherwise you’re guilty of wrongthink. Also you’re supposed to do doublethink which is believing two hypocritical ideas simultaneously. Two concepts we see the left employing all the time

IngSoc uses it to convince the subjects that: their constant war is a means for peace, the freedom promised by democracy is a lie to enslave, and that accepting ignorance of the “truth” is for the strength of the party.

They rub their power in peoples faces and the subjects have largely accepted the new normal.

Yes, if you think of all the enormous amount of money that was given to Africa. What a waste. They still hate us.

The concept of "gratitude" is a Western idea. Third worlders are never grateful if you help them, ever. For Muslims if you help them is because Allah forced you to, and for Africans their only culture is to live off others.

You're making the same mistake of the NPCs of thinking that other people in the world have our same values. They don't. Their way of thinking is completely different from ours.

The values of Western Civilization were formed in millennia of delicate balance between ancient philosophy, Christianity, Enlightenment, and Renaissance. They are unique. They are not universal.

Where do you get this idea that Germany or South American countries hate the US?

First of all, Germany didn't get shit in terms of aid because the Marshall plan was much smaller than the reparations and occupation costs that Germany had to pay. Not to mention all the intellectual property that was stolen. Germans were enslaved and genocided after WWII, nobody even talks about it, but let's leave it for a different post.

I don't think people in Germany hate the US at all. Merkel represents the average German just like Obama represented the average American. Where else do you get this sentiment, from the media?

Anyway, I was talking about cultural compatibility. And I stand by what I said even looking at your examples. A Mexican or a (white) Brazilian, in spite of their countries being warzones, have the same culture as us; and would be perfectly integrable immigrants, provided of course that they are not in such a number that they form their own communities.

The average African sees virtually nothing from aid that gets sent over. At best, it gets used in horribly inefficient if not counterproductive ways. At worst, the aid buys dictators new toys

How good is Animal Farm compared to 1984?

36
jennyfrutex 36 points ago +36 / -0

Both are very, very good. 1984 is a realistic-ish novel with human characters; Animal Farm is shorter, and reads a little more like a modern-day Aesop's fable, if that makes sense?

But I also loved Brave New World. It's right up there with 1984.

"Orwell was already well-known by the time he wrote Animal Farm. But publishers in the U.K. weren't about to touch a manuscript that criticized Joseph Stalin. Orwell suffered through several outright refusals until publisher Jonathan Cape almost pulled the trigger, but then backed out of the deal.

Why? Well, they consulted the Ministry of Information (an agency set up in the U.K. during the war to manage propaganda), and the guy they talked to there advised them against it. By the way, that man was named Peter Smollett, and he was later confirmed to be a freaking Soviet spy. Is it any wonder Orwell would go on to write Nineteen Eighty-Four? The dude was already living it.

The manuscript then made its way to famed poet T.S. Eliot, who was director of the publishing company Faber and Faber at the time. Eliot wasn't big on it, either -- he sent Orwell a detailed letter explaining why he thought Animal Farm had totally missed the head of the ideological nail, admitting that the novella was very well-written but that Orwell was being a bit too hard on poor old Stalin, who maybe perhaps wasn't so bad of a guy after all, you know? Eliot wrote:

'After all, your pigs are far more intelligent than the other animals, and therefore are the best qualified to run the farm -- in fact there couldn't have been an Animal Farm without them: so that what was needed (someone might argue) was not more communism but more public-spirited pigs.'

These same public-spirited pigs represented the totalitarian communist party that eventually slaughtered an estimated 6 million civilians ... yay pigs!

Four publishers passed on Animal Farm before it finally got published in 1945 -- after the war was safely over and nobody cared about pissing off Stalin anymore. And just in case our U.S. readers are feeling superior about how nervous U.K. publishers were about Orwell's masterpiece, one American publisher supposedly rejected the book on the grounds that there was no market for "animal stories" in the USA." -Cracked.com, 5 Hilarious Reasons Publishers Rejected Classic Best-Sellers (2013)

  2. Lots of formerly red cities, are turning rabidly blue. All of this shit is like some kind of airborne brain disease. The weakest-brained among us are chugging this insane Koolaid, and politicians and businesses are encouraging them, whether through utility or fear.

LittleRedRidingPills 4 points ago +4 / -0

The overarching trend is that red states are turning purple or blue, not the reverse (though I'm happy to be contradicted with particulars). That's simply the state of America, owing largely to demographic shifts (an influx of black and brown gibmedats).

Democrats look to these riots, and this pandering to minorities, as fueling this trend. They also feel that if they can paint Trump's first term as being one filled with riots and terror, so much the better.

The passion of young imbeciles is their life-blood. They understand their job to be keeping young people PASSIONATELY ENRAGED.

"No economy is worth more than a life" is one of the stupidest things I've ever read.

AstronoMink 1 point ago +1 / -0

You can't fight the good fight without food on the table, and it would be a waste of your talents to not be allowed to implement them in your field. Let patriots who can afford to post openly do it. You are not a coward if you can figure out what else you can do.

Meanwhile, make it your responsibility to fight smartly, in more subtle ways or behind the scenes.

Instead of telling colleagues, play stupid while leading them with questions. Start broadly and then get more specific as they keep trying to justify their views and eventually insert contradictory hypotheticals, then examples, and then facts. Ask lots of hows and whys and what ifs, but interspersed between exchanges and at the pace of their answers. Make them feel like they are the expert until they realize they aren't, and that you are asking questions they haven't even asked themselves (all out of "mere curiosity" or "for a reliable opinion," and not some pointed discourse or debate). People are more likely to break the conditioning when they realize they don't have all the answers they thought they did, and people are more welcoming to an idea if they think they came up with it themselves.

As for your skill set, patriots need to be involved in every field. If not able to be politically open or active, patriots must at least be present and able to observe the political discourse and happenings in their fields to alert others of them and serve as a buffer. Like the communists waged a war for minds by subtley infiltrating all our fields, we must do the same to take it back from their grasp. Figure out what you can do silently, subtly, or anonymously to push back for patriots. Find a "boots on the ground" patriot from outside and unrelated to you who can help take action for you from while you remain "cooperative" or anonymous.


[This very last part is actually the hard part, and where we really need to get organized, because there are few ways to create a network of patriots without being traced digitally or doxed. Setting up some sort of network like this is something I have had on the back of my mind for a while. There needs to be either a digital network set up that cannot be tracked by any third party and yet is still accessible by everyday patriots (would require expert pedes, and not sure if even possible or realistic) or we would need to get back to the basics with print, signaling, and physical links to an "underground" (more doable). This is something we really need asap from a grassroots level to use actively and have a security net if justice fails ans shit hits the fan, and we cannot be caught unprepared. Some patriots need to get together to organize it now, because time is of the essence.)]

Sorry, didn't mean to write an essay, but I don't think you are the only one who feels that way. You inspired some thoughts about what needs to be done, and it needed ro be shared.

I remember reading 1984 in highschool here in the netherladns as part of a project. We also read Brave New World, which I also loved.

At that age, no matter how good I was at English, 1984 was still a bit too complicated for me. I remember the basics but not the whole story. The concepts of Wrongthink and Doublethink were so foreign to me. But brave New World was easier reading and I still have the book today.

That one also contains some fucked up things! fetuses created in a lab and starved of oxygen to make them into dumb Delta or Epsilon babies as opposed to the smart Alpha's, sex-play for children, everything is corporate and marketed, everyone having a whole slew of sex-partners, old people being sent to colonies. Fucked up man.

I might have to re-read 1984 too.It does certainly feel like we are in a dystopia now.

Shit's for casuals. Let's get into Brave New World territory. Just need a bunch of second class citizens to do laborious tasks who have no real say in anythi- oh wait. That sounds awfully familiar. But surely we're not at the point where certain races are being targetted by some sort of wide reaching eugenicsprogram, right? Oh wait, planned parenthood? Shiet. How did we get to this point given all the warnings of countless writers and philosophers?

They destroy your character with RACISM. BLM movement has gone too far in this country, people need to wake the fuck up. I think its too late already. Too many have gone down that rabbit hole and there is no way back. TDS is a real thing. I did not believe it at first, but now I truly believe that many lives of innocents were either financially destroyed or actual lives lost because we let these people attack our PRESIDENT, our COUNTRY, and our FREEDOMS, all because "Orange man bad" and because they hate him so much.

They do not care about what FUTURE generations of kids will think, and they don't care about what the CURRENT generation is learning from all of this right now... IDK man, all this shit is fucked up and infected everything and everyone. Look at all those big corporations KNEELING to BLM... Shit is fucked man.

All i can say is people have got to STOP BEING CUCK SNOWFLAKES apologizing for shit they have no business apologizing for, and stand the fuck up for your beliefs and for AMERICA. GOD BLESS AND GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

When will The Horse; Labor Pool, stand up and strike? These protestors are unemployed and supplied by outrageous unemployment benefits. Those of us working hard everyday don’t have the financial security to sit this one out and strike at the heart of these corporate racists by sitting it out.

Can anyone say CHAZ?

“The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

"No economy is worth a life," ended abortion rights right there with that argument.

Animal Farm was a weird movie. I remember a pig in a suit walking on his hind legs, which was very disturbing.

I read Animal Farm back in 8th grade. I assume nowadays they still have kids read it, which surprises me. Or at least the school district I went to does.
