- "Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What
was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies they
were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet
this produced in them no tendency whatever to rebel against the discipline
of the Party. On the contrary, they adored the Party and everything connected
with it. All their ferocity was turned outwards, against the enemies of
the State, against foreigners, traitors, saboteurs, thought-criminals.
It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own
children."

- George knew where it was going. He knew full well...
"such organizations" being the schools, the media and peer pressure.
"the party" being their herd mentality and its demand to be 'cool'
by conforming. "the state" being their myopic little world and
its addictions to drugs and 'celebrity' culture... and their adoration
of a virtual media of violence...and a bedrock reverence for non-accountability.
-
- And now it IS common for people 'over thirty' (not to
mention teachers) to be wary and often frightened of their
own and this society's children. -JR

- "Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is
to narrow the range of thought? Has it ever occurred to your, Winston,
that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will
be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?
The whole climate of thought will be different. In fact, there will be
no thought, as we understand it now. Orthodoxy means not thinking not needing
to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness."

- -George Orwell's 1984, Syme, page 46-47
-
- And how many times have we noted the dumbing down of
our young people and the deliberate dessication of a once vibrant 'adult'
national intellect...euthanized by the ruthlessly brilliant, stealth onslaught
of mindless, virtual electro-'entertainment'... The art of reading is on
life-support...and is being/has been largely replaced by a servile REactive
national psychosis...as if a walk-in alien consciousness has been installed
in the masses which feeds upon activism and PROactive life energy. In many
ways, that is precisely, exactly what has been done. It's all here NOW,
from mind-numbing fluoride and aspartame (now in over 6,000 products) to
GM crops with their often fatal laboratory tests to nanotech machines that
are now quite possibly in the bodies of hundreds of millions of human beings...be
sure to listen to the Seventh Special Morgellons program. - JR

- "It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts
wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen.
The smallest thing could give you away. A nervous tic, an unconscious look
of anxiety, a habit of muttering to yourself anything that carried with
it the suggestion of abnormality, of having something to hide. In any case,
to wear an improper expression on your face, was itself a punishable offense.
There was even a word for it in Newspeak: facecrime "

-
-
- It's already happening. We've published the
face scanning profile stories...from videocams in the back of every airline
seat (being installed by one major
-
- airline now) to watch your facial gestures during the
entire flight, to street cams which watch, listen and bark down to pedestrians,
to new brain scanners in airports that will monitor brain wave activity
and profile it for 'terroristic' thought patterns. It is becoming
'terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander.' Just try to inform
those who buy into the basic power and authority and 'credibility' of the
Federal Government, the Fed, the FDA, the CDC, the USDA, and so on. "Our
government would never allow us to eat food that was bad for us!"
is but one of dozens of mantras uttered by the brain-dead, sleep-walking,
fear-driven citizenry. Orwell KNEW. -JR
