Interesting that right after Elon Musk announces free speech on Twitter

Perfect

Up-voted. It's a good thing that our ideologically indoctrinated Dem Party voters are politically illiterate . . . or they'd be very up-set.

I thought this meme was a joke, but it's real. 1984 was supposed to be a fiction novel, not a playbook.

True . . . but then again it was inevitable once the left gained control of the nation's educational systems and then STOPPED teaching about the nature of and the horrors of Marxism in school. If the younger generation aren't taught the warning signs then they can't predict the outcome of leftist policies and proposals.

Wait, you don't think the government will perfectly execute the socialist agendas without hurting people and having zero corruption?

Hmmmm . . . am I allowed to tell the truth about that? Has the Left's Ministry of Truth actually gone into operation yet? We all risk leftist imposed doxxing now.

well, subvertly the Left's indoctrination has been going on for decades, but with the recent overtly forming of the Ministry of Truth, (aka Department of Homeland Security Disinformation Governance Board), it's undeniable.

It is grotesquely amusing to watch leftists go from DENYING that they are initiating programs identical to what the NAZIS and then the Soviet Union and Communist China initiated to declaring -- essentially -- that, "it is DIFFERENT when WE do . . . it!" and do so with nary a hint of self-awareness, irony, or indeed any signs of ethics, honor, or integrity.

it's the reason the Left thought Twitter and all of social media banning people's account that they disagreed with, yet when Elon Musk buys Twitter and vows to all for free speech with no banning, then the Left lose it.

I recently went to a Holocaust museum and I couldn't help but notice the blaring identical path of pre-WW2 Germany and the U.S. today.

Precisely . . . any thinking person with an interest in uncensored history can see the exact parallels. But then again those independent thinkers also tend to be conservatives.

Well said.

Yep, exactly.

Pursuing disinformation from the government implies assuming that the government is the one that knows what the truth is.

So that inverts the whole sense of the constitution. Of the freedoms. Of the first and second amendments.

You could call it the office of communism, but we'll call it something else so as not to scare you.

holy crap

Wait, what was the official announcement?

The science teacher said nothing when a Mexican girl told me to leave the school "with my neon skin"..he changed my grade to a D when my Dad showed up after he asked if I was "stupid" when I gave a wrong answer.

Meet your new minister of Dis Information, Actual Tic Toc from last year!! LOL!! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/TshZQjLEWwg Most pathetic thing I have seen!! LOL

Good One - 20f68v.jpg (click to show) Meme Upvoted!

bro if i brought orwell back to life and showed him this website i guarantee you that he'd puke. and not just because i engineered his digestive system to work again after decades of inactivity.

also he died in 1950. willing to bet money that truman had him assassinated.

As a libtard I am not sure I like this idea. However I wonder if MAGAtards would feel the same if Trump started it.

I would hope that any critical thinking person would find this idea of a Ministry of Truth abhorrent, no matter who proposed it.

It's Big Brother no matter who starts it.

The sky is purple not blue. Just because someone says that doesn't mean everyone has to believe it. I don't understand why everyone believes everything they see on the internet. Social media is no place to market politics, and outlets for political representatives. News was meant for newspapers, and even the newspaper doesn't always get it right. I have never used social media or mail flyers to persuade me to vote. I use online research and hope it is accurate while checking multiple sites. Elon musk is not going to stop people from believing what they want by allowing free speech. I understand that it could get dicey with, hate speech or speech that attacks others, and kids in school already have to deal with to much he said she said nonsense. Who knows anymore. If I said the sky was green you still didn't have to believe it. I do understand that it's not nice to lie to blind people about what color the sky is.

If a leftist says the sky is blue, I have to go outside to check.

And the Repubs keep banning books that hurt their feelz.

No, they removed books from being taught in class that are not age-appropriate for children in that grade.

Unlike the left which totally bans people from using logos, team names, or words they don't like. Gone are the Cleveland Indians, Aunt Jamima, Uncle Ben's, and Land-O-Lakes.

They try to ban people from saying only a woman can have babies or all lives matter. The left doesn't want the words retarded, illegal alien, or mailman used. Why, feelings.

It was the left that banned To Kill A Mocking Bird, Slaughterhouse-Five, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Tom Sawyer, and Catcher in the Rye, from schools. The left tried to ban the movie Gone with the Wind, and even tried to ban the song Baby it's Cold Outside from the radio. Forget about trying to show the movie Blazing Saddles on TV, the left would go epileptic. Sorry, don't know if I can use that word, you know feelings.

Ruby Goes To School: My True S

The left has been using cancel culture for years to push their narrative. The right has now started fighting back by using this same tactic and the left doesn't like it.

The entire aim of Conservatism is cancelling anything new that occurred after a certain point in the past. What you're saying is like the pot calling the kettle a sealed lead tin.

so you are saying that gov't should ban books it deems not age-appropriate. you sound more communist than republican. i thought you guys were small government? and personal responsiblity?

We are against censorship and are in favor of personal responsibility. However, the left didn't agree and started using cancel-culture and censorship to further their narrative. We tried to convince them this was a slippery slope and should be stopped.

The left wouldn't stop so we are going on the offense and are now using their tactics. Now they are pissed when we do the same thing they have been doing for decades.

He's actually saying banning is justified simply for the sake of vindictiveness, which is funny given that the Right Wing was born out a revulsion for anything new and the urge to purge it from our midst.

just a few more:

I don't care.

I think most of us HAVE read it. If you are over 40 it was probably required reading even in public indoctrination centers...er...I mean schools. The similarities to today's society are pretty undeniable.

Read Homage to Catalonia next

That is because you are lazy.

They have an audio book version for free on the internet somewhere...

You better read it then
