The left of today has become Orwell's "1984" realized, with democrats embracing insane totalitarian measures, all under the guise of altruism. Sadly, leftists lack the power of introspection and cannot critically examine what their party has become.
Perhaps if they read "1984" again (and maybe "Animal Farm" and Bradbury's "Farenheit 451") they might gain some insight, but probably not.
Witness:
1. banning books
2. burning books
3. restrictions of free speech
4. PC language designed to intimidate ("newspeak")
5. violent shock troops (ANTIFA and BLM)
6. cancel culture
7. "ministries of truth"
8. revisionist history
9. Biden as the puppet with unseen masters pulling his strings.
10. Shaming has taken on a new meaning where if you disagree with the mob they will follow you on social media or even follow you back to your house to destroy your image, your life.
The Democrats really do want to control us from the womb to the tomb.
The concept of "thought police" is something that blew my mind when I read the book in high school thinking that was the stuff of science fiction or at least the U.S.S.R., yet here we are.
What goes on today especially from left-wing extremists leaves me speechless.
Republicans are the ones advocating for censorship and loss of human rights. Why do you think Trump publicly supports China’s crackdown on Hong Kong protests? 1984 indeed. Have fun with your two minutes of hate.

Completely different experience for me living in the south.
Conservatives who object to same sex marriage, history facts, caring for the environment, Harry Potter, etc. are constantly fighting to control the message.
Home schooling kids so they can't be taught the Big Bang Theory and the Theory of Evolution....that is some control stuff for sure.

The memory hole is the very definition of cancel culture. The radical left is the self-anointed Ministry of Truth.
