The narrative told of the <em>INGSOC Party<\/em> which maintained power through a system of surveillance and brutality designed to monitor and control every aspect of society.\u00a0 From the time of the book\u2019s release in 1949, any ensuing vision of a dark dystopia depicting variations of jackboots stomping on human faces, forever, has been referenced as being <em>\u201cOrwellian\u201d<\/em>. \u00a0This is because Orwell\u2019s narrative illustrated various disturbing and unjust conceptualizations of <em>control<\/em>, <em>crime<\/em>, and <em>punishment<\/em>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>For example, \u201c<em>Newspeak<\/em>\u201d represented the language of mind control, whereas <em>\u201ccrimethink\u201d<\/em>, <em>\u201cthoughtcrime\u201d<\/em>, and <em>\u201ccrimeface\u201d<\/em> manifested as transgressions against the state.\u00a0 Guilty citizens were captured by the <em>\u201cThought Police\u201d<\/em>, and the ultimate punishment consisted of<em> \u201cvaporization\u201d<\/em>; which eliminated every last vestige of a person\u2019s existence.<\/p>\n<p>In the horrifying world of <em>1984<\/em>, the nation of <em>Oceania<\/em> was divided into three concentric groups:\u00a0 The <em>Inner Party<\/em>, the <em>Outer Party<\/em>, and the <em>Proles<\/em>, or proletariat.\u00a0 The Proles constituted 85% of the population and lived in extreme privation.\u00a0 The Inner Party represented the elite powerbrokers who led lives of comprehensive luxury compared to the minions in the Outer Party.<\/p>\n<p>But in the real world of today, it is the globalist billionaires who own multiple mansions, fly private jets and ride in eight-cylinder limousines to climate-change conferences where policies are decreed to lower the carbon footprint of the proletariat. \u00a0It is the wealthy elite of the westernized nations who have sacrificed individual freedom upon the altar of Collectivism as political correctness has stifled free speech and enslaved citizens drown under oceans of debt.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ten Ways the Democratic Northern Hemisphere Nations Became the Orwellian West In his book, \u201c1984\u201d, George Orwell envisioned a future crushed by the iron grip of a collectivist oligarchy.
