I've been blasting this to people on social media. I know most of you here know what I am talking about, but thought I'd share here, so maybe someone can forward it on to others. Their is literally a war being waged for your mind and control over it. Stand up and fight! WWG1WGA!

"1984" by George Orwell

 

"The purpose of Newspeak was not only to provide a medium of expression for the world-view and mental habits proper to the devotees of Ingsoc, but to make all other modes of thought impossible. Its vocabulary was so constructed as to give exact and often very subtle expression to every meaning that a Party member could properly wish to express, while excluding all other meaning and also the possibility of arriving at them by indirect methods. This was done partly by the invention of new words, but chiefly by eliminating undesirable words and stripping such words as remained of unorthodox meanings, and so far as possible of all secondary meaning whatever."

 

The Oldspeak word free existed in Newspeak, but could only be used in terms of something not present, as in the sentences "The dog is free from lice." and "This field is free from weeds." Politically, the word free could not denote free will, because such a humanist concept does not exist in the society of Oceania. The linguistic design of Newspeak is for thought control, by diminishment of the user's range of thought, which is realised with a minimal vocabulary of limited denotation and connotation; hence words such as: crimethink (thought crime), doublethink (accepting contradictory beliefs), and Ingsoc (English Socialism).

Ask yourself a question people: Are you free in your own thoughts? Or are your thoughts and beliefs controlled by someone else's programming designed to shape them?

 

Question everything. Question authority. Question your beliefs. Question yourself. Then, learn to think freely for yourself.
