1984 Comparison to modern society — Part VI
- War and Peace chapter by Goldstein
– The psuedo-paradox that is doublethink
– LME (Lazy Man’s Ethics) as a guiding principle for warfare
– A civilized nation with extensive knowledge of other cultures should not engage in warfare lightly or for political purposes. Such acts bring us within the realm of the 1984 universe.
– It is better to enforce the law unanimously than to sweep in and make changes, ala The Authority comic book, with a divided world watching and unwilling to support those actions politically or monetarily.
– Proxy nations used by superpowers to wage war against one another.
– Opposing political parties arguing with one another in an infantile manner, while legitimate societal problems within government’s influence remain unsolved.

Goldstein’s Book contained the Truth.
Although O’Brien said it was “fake”, I think he lied.
I think modern society is more comparable to animal farm than 1984.
with all the recent and growing exceptions that is the current government’s attitude twords the constitution/bill of rights.
