Re: Orwell's nightmare is our reality
You asked the question a while back (it has been asked by many throughout the years) if anyone reads long posts. The fact is that people are no longer deep readers. Especially in Christianity, where book reading other than the Bible is considered to be unspiritual. So, fake news isn't an obstacle for the rank and file. They believe the earth is flat, they believe giants built the pyramids. I sat down to eat breakfast with a brother who told me portals to other dimensions were being shut down by the Russians? Eschatology has more interpretations then the Bhagavad Gita. But that is just one ology. Soteriology is another, but to be fair all religions are shape shifted to suit an individual's taste. So, Newspeak really doesn't need to be manipulated. The people are their own worst enemy. The people and their magical thinking.
