On a re-read, Orwell’s narrative holds up, in large part due to the asperity of the prose and the prescient description of how fascism can creep into any society that takes freedom for granted. (Trump’s election made it a bestseller again.)
Rent-free for life, holy shit. But I find it hilarious they say that when the closest parallel to the "two minutes of hate" talked about in the book would be coming from the leftists TDS-raging publicly at Trump's grinning face.
lmao yes "it was Trump," not the obvious Trump-is-Goldstein connection.... This article and every other of millions since 2015 that have showcased the leftist lemmings in their two minute hate...
The NPCs haven't been assigned a true replacement for Trump to focus their hatred as Trump is still technically a threat to the Machine that programs them.
Trump: protectionism-lite, "they let you grab them by the pussy", no-wars never ever, America for Americans close the border
You are correct. They need a new target for their hatred of all that is noble, honorable, and good. Women simply do not understand why honor, dignity, honesty, and strength are REQUIRED to build a successful nation. They prefer consensus and submission to strength. You cannot build a nation on female instincts. Such an endeavor is perverse and anti-reality. Women belong on a fucking leash, answering to a strong man.
He will be the reference by which they justify every blight they visit upon our world--- assuming you back them into the corner to acknowledge the atrocities they commit have even occured
It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers-out of unorthodoxy
I wonder why feminists would have a problem with 1984 🤔
Yeah. Another Thing I remember a while back was people condescendingly chanting about comparisons to 1984 as a catch all way of shutting down criticism a la "It's the Current Year"
Wasn't one of the reasons why it became a bestseller during that time being that Hillary wrote a book referencing it and saying that the message of the novel is "you should trust experts and authority figures."
A take so bad and stupid it became a meme and brought the discussion of the book back to the headlines for a huge portion of T_D's peak.
I guess they can't admit to that little tidbid, so its easier to just generalize it to make it sound like its Trump's fault.
Let me guess - it concentrates overmost on the "sexcrime" angle, while totally ignoring "thoughtcrime", "doublethink", and how language is used to manipulate perception.
sex-crimes are not a real thing. women should be physically assaulted and beaten to re-baseline their understanding of violence. Every single women that quotes some retarded statistic about how 1 in 3 men are rapists should be raped and contractually entered into indentured servitude (7 years) to better understand their role in the world.
Sexcrime in the book has nothing to do with rape, and everything to do with having sex for pleasure, instead of purely for procreation (and even then, you're not supposed to enjoy it), which is what the LEFT used to fixate upon whenever THEY approached this book.
If you look at the movies, this aspect of the story (it's via sex that our hero is exposed) is the part most focused on. Hell, it was the name of a hit song featured in the 1984 version of it ...
I wish this went into more detail about the plot, as I was honestly curious how it would be twisted. Instead it's just the usual "strong empowered slut" and weak male loser "twist," and the cheering on of such subversions.
Hearing Julia recall her various sexual exploits not only makes her human, it gives you the sense she really knows herself — what she wants...She revels in al fresco couplings, some same-sex action and a bit of mild BDSM.
Meanwhile, the Winston of “Julia” has little to recommend him. Everyone in their office calls him “Old Misery Smith.” He can’t even rise to the occasion (innuendo intended)...
Newman hasn’t proved herself a worthy successor to Orwell; she’s outclassed him, both in knowledge of human nature and in character development. “Julia” should be the new required text on those high-school curricula...
Leftists have convinced themselves that their ideas are intrinsic to identities, so opposing those ideas requires you to oppose those identities.
A corollary to this dynamic is that any female or minority protagonist must overcome their challenges by using leftist ideas - like the female protagonist being a slut to own the patriarchy - otherwise the character doesn’t qualify as representative of the identity.
If the gender-swapped 1984 was just 1984 with a female lead, then the book wouldn’t be useful as a vector for disseminating feminist ideology. So the act of gender swapping also necessitates both plot and thematic changes to accommodate the ideology of the female identity.
When you suggest that hiring a female writer might harm the production, the industry crucifies you. Yet they require the production to be radically altered in order to fully represent the “female identity”. You’re basically being gaslit.
Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right. George Orwell
So somebody sent 1984 to the Ministry of Information and had it re-written. Holy Jesus, Isn't this a copyright violation? Or, god forbid, does this hack have permission from the Orwell estate?

We've always been at war with The Patriarchy.
The Sue character who toppled the patriarchy through her ever watching alternative spy network was very inspiring.
I wrote a total guess, and then read the article.
The Trump reference was really dumb.

The Warton School of Business.
Who? Donald Trump graduated from Warton. Protectionism. The CORE USA economic school. Protectionism. Hamilton. American. Nationalism.
Putin comes close?
The hate for Putin is pretty recent, and only emerged as a spin-off of hate of Trump, because BlueAnon's "Le Russian Agent" narrative.
Not that recent, remember Pussy Riot?

1984 would be naturally interested in remaking 1984 to warn against a reality that is not 1984 for current denizens.
I wonder why feminists would have a problem with 1984 🤔
A total mystery.
Yeah. Another Thing I remember a while back was people condescendingly chanting about comparisons to 1984 as a catch all way of shutting down criticism a la "It's the Current Year"
Yeah, it was based in the reality of human behavior that Orwell observed, and female supremacists need to hide that.
Bet you anything this feminist version will at least subtly imply that it's really the MEN that have that trait and are the easily manipulated ones.
subtly? They can't do subtle to save their lives.
It's going to be blunt "men bad" bullshit, and encourage women being whores because 'it's actually freedom' or something.

It's like 1984, but this time it's all about MEEEE!
(every feminist grifter re-writing something a man wrote generations ago)

rape <<<<< physical assault and men v. men fighting in the street. stop SIMPing for these pathetic, naïve, no-real-experience hoes.
"Trashy erotica novel, what are you doing over the garbage disposal and why is there so much blood?"
"I'm not trashy erotica novel! I'm 1984! And there is no way I crudely Buffalo Billed 1984 and am now trying to dispose of the body!"

Newman is tripleplusgreat.
I came here to post something about her being a slut to "overthrow the patriarchy" and the stupidity of 🤡🌎 made it obsolete before I even posted

Could only be more complete if "she" was a tranny and Ingsoc's slogan was Make Oceania Great Again
Demonstrating once again that critics are envious narcissists with shit for brains and can't write themselves out of a paper bag.
No, no, no!
We're "rebooting" books now?! Kill me.
Finally, instead of lamenting that leftists use 1984 as a manual, we have an alternative 1984 that I can use as a manual.

This Newspeak version of 1984 is brought to you by the MiniTrue.
Friendly reminder that the original 1984 was always meant to be a feminist critique of the Trump patriarchy.
Also, 2 + 2 = 5.
So somebody sent 1984 to the Ministry of Information and had it re-written. Holy Jesus, Isn't this a copyright violation? Or, god forbid, does this hack have permission from the Orwell estate?
I heard they were gonna do this. I didn’t think they would but I was wrong
