Yes, certainly. Doublespeak, indeed.
- mbzastava 13y agodoes this not make you sob?
- the0ther 13y agoand i would say that Doublethink was the real main point of 1984. Big Brother and surveilance...that was filler compared to the theme of Doublethink. Go ahead and watch what I do, I'm not ashamed, but DO NOT fuck with my thoughts and my words for expressing those thoughts. ministry of love, ministry of truth, ministry of peace...2+2=5. it was such a bigger part of 1984 than the surveilance bit. In the US, political correctness is the slippery slope to Doublespeak.
- mkr-hn 13y agoThat's a very strange segue.
- the0ther 13y agohow egregious has Obama been in this regard? winning the Peace Prize while conducting wars? claiming that he is a promoter of transparency, when he's as secretive as any recent prez. claiming "hope & change" when nothing has changed at all and most people are lower on hope than ever? total Doublespeak.
