Woke Thought Police ruining our way of life
When speaking of the oppressed proletariat in 1984, Orwell says “But the proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength, would have no need to conspire. They needed only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it? And yet-!”.
Today the ordinary, decent, normal people both of this country and the USA, are in the same position relating to the
lunatics of woke.
These arrogant, humourless authoritarians aim to corrupt our language, distort our history and our culture, while brainwashing youngsters into believing that this country is somehow uniquely guilty of all the wrongs in the world. They have been responsible for undermining our universities to the point where undergraduates are unwilling to tolerate the kind of democratic debate which is the raison d’être of education, of causing good people to lose their jobs because of speaking their mind in a manner which offends them, and even, via social media, of creating an atmosphere where some are put in fear of their lives. They claim to be acting from highly virtuous motives, yet prefer bombastic assertions and personal invective to reasoned discussion.
They must be opposed wherever they are encountered. People must say that they will not be cowed into silence, or forced to accept that the language they speak, the books they read, or even the thoughts they have, will be conformed to the wishes of these cretins.
If these self appointed Thought
Police are allowed to prevail we will live in a nightmare, where freedom of speech, and of thought, no longer exist.
