: ))))))))))), Freedom is Slavery, and.......these are two of the three ubiquitous mottoes that the citizens who populate George Orwell's 1984 commit to memory from early childhood. Words, in 1984, mean only what the elites say they mean. The ruled of course see this as normal.

Much like the mining communities under Thatcher.

Much like the unskilled labourers under Reagan.

Much like just about anyone who muttered a complaint about capitalism under Pinochet.

Hey I thought conservatives liked law and order, tradition and sought to maintain social cohesion and community, go figure I suppose more of that hypocrisy and double standards I guess.

P.S. Frenchy's posts are actually a really good example of ideological double speak or establishment newspeak or the new establishment dictionary engsoc.....bet that went over his head though....
